[comp.object] Closure stack frames

moss@cs.umass.edu (Eliot Moss) (07/05/90)

In addition to the article on implementing closures in the latest SIGPLAN
Conference proceedings, I wrote a paper a couple of years ago on a technique
adequate for Smalltalk that appears competitive with traditional stack schemes
(in the absence of really fancy stack support in the CPU). Here is the .bib
citation for those that may be interested:
