		.NET Compiler Engineering - 01/14/2004 This course focuses on the fundamentals of compiler engineering. The main goal of the curriculum is to introduce students to the primary ideas and techniques used in modern compiler engineering as well as to give practical skills in writing simple compilers. This course uses Microsoft® .NET as a target framework for the compilation. Upon completion of the course, most students will be able to independently create an operable compiler of a C#-like programming language.
		Common Type System: Module 5 - Programming with the Microsoft® .NET Framework (Microsoft® Visual C#™ .NET) - 02/11/2004 This module focuses on Microsoft® .NET Framework. Topics covered are: An Introduction to the Common Type System, Elements of the Common Type System, and Object-Oriented Characteristics.
		Compilers and Languages - 08/02/2001 Describes the following languages and links to further rescources for each: Active Oberon, Component Pascal, Hotdog Scheme, Mercury, Mondrian/Haskell, Perl/Python, SML.NET, ILX SDK (with associated files), and Project 7.

		Design and Implementation of Generics for the .NET Common Language Runtime - 08/02/2001 The Microsoft .NET Common Language Runtime provides a shared type system, intermediate language and dynamic execution environment for the implementation and inter-operation of multiple source languages. In this paper we extend it with direct support for parametric polymorphism (also known as generics), describing the design through examples written in an extended version of the C# programming language, and explaining aspects of implementation by reference to a prototype extension to the runtime. Our design is very expressive, supporting parameterized types, polymorphic static, instance and virtual methods, "F-bounded" type parameters, instantiation at pointer and value types, polymorphic recursion, and exact run-time types. Early performance results are encouraging and sugest that programmers will not need to pay an overhead for using generics, achieving performance almost matching hand-specialized code.
		Garbage Collection in Depth: Lesson 2 - Programming Microsoft .NET - 02/06/2004 This lab focuses on the automatic memory management scheme employed by the Microsoft® .NET Framework called garbage collection. It addresses the logistical problems of managing dynamically-allocated memory, and the related programming bugs.
		Implementing Functional Languages on Object-Oriented Virtual Machines - 08/02/2001 We discuss some of the issues involved in implementing functional languages on object-oriented virtual environments (VE) such as the Java Virtual Machine and Microsoft's .NET. The paper concentrates on how functional language type systems can be supported in these OO-typed environments, and on how functional and OO languages can interwork. Mondrian, a new functional language specifically designed for such environments, is introduced as an example.
		Interprocess Communication Standards and Microsoft's Common Language Infrastructure - 08/02/2001 Recent inter-process communication standards for Web-based systems have improved information and application portability along with cross-organizational and cross-application interoperability. These new standards provide an evolution in distributed application architecture based on Web Services. The creation of Web services and the deployment of its application infrastructure are enhanced by the implementation of an ECMA-based Common Language Infrastructure (CLI). The CLI incorporates these Web service standards and links the growing need for multiple programming language support to the adopted concepts of virtual execution engines.
		Scripting .NET using Mondrian - 08/02/2001 We introduce the design of Mondrian, a functional scripting language for glueing together components on the .NET platform. Mondrian is monadic statement centric with pure expressions and non-strict evaluation and explores the melding of the OO and the purely lazy functional paradigms.
		Stacking Them Up: A Comparison of Virtual Machines - 02/12/2007 In this study, a compiler was implemented which can produce output code that may run on either the JVM or .NET platforms. The compiler is available in the public domain, and facilitates comparisons to be made both at compile time and at runtime.
