It is very old, but it would get you many important ideas. http://stephane.ducasse.free.fr/FreeBooks/BlueBook/Bluebook.pdf after that, there is a source of Squek/Pharo virtual machines, and you can even run and debug them it inside Pharo.

Becoming good at VM development

by Ichiseki

Hi hello to everyone & everybody I am interesting in going deeply into VM design, development, optimization, etc. I know a lot of Haskell, a good amount of C and some languages that use VM like Python, Lua and Pharo of course. What would be a road map (books, articles, code to read) to understand deeply and in detail the Pharo VM, the inter operation between the VM and the image. I know this could take a lot of time but I'm committed to invest that time. Please help me as literature on these topics is very scarce... Thank SO SO much in advacne ichiro -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Becoming-good-at-VM-development-tp4846536.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
