Henry Baker
Computer science researcher known for proposing the "Cheney on the M.T.A." garbage collection and continuation-passing style execution scheme, published in 1994. This technique forms the theoretical foundation of CHICKEN Scheme's compilation strategy.
Timeline (last 90 days)
CHICKEN uses a compilation scheme based on Henry Baker's "Cheney on the M.T.A." technique, compiling Scheme code into C code and then using a C compiler to generate native executables.
"Cheney on the M.T.A." is a garbage collection and continuation-passing style (CPS) execution scheme proposed by Henry Baker in 1994.
