Compiling Scheme Programs to .NET Common Intermediate Language

Overview This paper presents the compilation of the Scheme programming language to .NET platform. .NET pro-vides a virtual machine, the Common Language Run-time (CLR) that executes bytecode: the Common Intermediate Language (CIL). Since CIL was designed with language agnosticism in mind, it provides a rich set of language constructs and functionalities. There-fore, the CLR is the first execution environment that offers type safety, managed memory, tail recursion support and several favors of pointers to functions. As such, the CLR presents an interesting ground for functional language implementations.
