Tail Call Elimination on the Java Virtual Machine

Martin Odersky, Michel Schinz
2001
Conference paper
Abstract

A problem that often has to be solved by compilers for functional languages targeting the Java Virtual Machine is the elimination of tail calls. This paper explains how we solved it in our Funnel compiler and presents some experimental results about the impact our technique has on both performance and size of the compiled programs.
