After reading about the Self language in this and other newgroups I would like to learn more about it. Does anyone have a list of articles or other information on the language? Thanks for the information. -----Dale Rogerson-----

The latest is "An Efficient Implementation of SELF, a Dynamically-Typed Object-Oriented Language Based on Prototypes," by Craig Chambers, David Ungar, and Elgin Lee. They just presented this at OOPSLA '89, and the proceedings will be distributed as a special issue of SIGPLAN Notices soon. Other things in proceedings that have *already* been issues of SIGPLAN Notices: Chambers & Ungar, "Customization: Optimizing Compiler Technology for SELF, a Dynamically-Typed Object-Oriented Programming Language," from SIGPLAN '89 (SIGPLAN Notices 24(7), July '89.) Ungar & Smith, "SELF: the Power of Simplicity," OOPSLA '87. (Sigplan Notices 22(12), Dec. '87. there's also Elgin Lee's 1988 Engineer's thesis from Stanford, "Object Storage and Inheritance for SELF, a Prototype-based Object-Oriented Programming Language." -- Paul Paul R.

I suspect a lot of people are in this boat with Dale and me (Dale and I? I and Dale? Me and Dale? Hill and Dale? I dunno.)

Here's a reference to get you started: Ungar, D and Smith, R.B., 1988: "SELF: The Power of Simplicity", Proc Spring COMPCON 1988, pp 162-165. This may also have appeared in OOPSLA '87 (SIGPLAN Notices 22,12,Dec 87). The title is the same as that above, though it may be different. Alas, the COMPCON paper gives no other useful references.

I don't have complete references with me, but papers have been
published in:
OOPSLA '87
