Hi,
	I'm looking for a handy reference to a *SURVEY ARTICLE*, the
kind that appears in Computing Surveys or even a listing as in SIGPLAN
Notices, on abstract machines for functional language implementations.
Preferably a recent one that covers the various kinds of abstract machines.
("The next 700 functional abstract machines" ?)

Please note I am not looking for references to articles/papers etc
on individual abstract machines like Turner's combinator machine,
or Landin's SECD or the spineless, tagless G-machine etc. I am looking
for a "meta-reference"; one which you would, say, hand a grad student
who was interested in functional language implementations, or a
pointer you could give to a reader for background knowledge on
implementation techniques. 

Thanks,
Sanjiva
