The Larceny Project

• research-quality implementations of Scheme
  • garbage collection
  • compiler optimization
• standard library, written mostly in Scheme
• optimizing compiler: Twobit
• three back ends
  1. Larceny: generates native code for the SPARC
  2. Petit Larceny: generates "portable" C code
  3. Common Larceny: generates IL for the CLR and .NET
