Hello everybody,

I'm a student at Delft University and am currently working on a implementation
for higher order functions in a functional programming language. I know the
most commen used model for this is the closure model, but I can't find any
literature about the closure model, or about implementing higher order
functions itself. I have got the book of Peyton-Jones (implementation of
functional programming languages) but this does not say anything about how
to implement higher order functions.

I know how the closure model works, but I need some background on the subject.
Is there anyone who has got some ideas?

Thanks,

Kees de Bruin.
