Moscow ML was written by

Sergei Romanenko (roman@keldysh.ru), Keldysh Institute of Applied Mathematics, Russian Academy of Sciences, Miusskaya Pl. 4, 125047 Moscow, Russia.

and

Peter Sestoft (sestoft@dina.kvl.dk), Department of Mathematics and Physics, Royal Veterinary and Agricultural University, Thorvaldsensvej 40, DK-1871 Frederiksberg C, Denmark. Much of the work was done at the Department of Computer Science at the Technical University of Denmark, and while visiting AT&T Bell Laboratories, Murray Hill, New Jersey, USA.

Moscow ML owes much to

• the CAML Light implementation by Xavier Leroy and Damien Doligez (INRIA, Rocquencourt, France);
• the ML Kit by Lars Birkedal, Nick Rothwell, Mads Tofte and David Turner (Copenhagen University, Denmark, and Edinburgh University, Scotland);
• inspiration from the SML/NJ compiler developed at Princeton University and AT&T Bell Laboratories, New Jersey, USA; and
• the good work by Doug Currie, Flavors Technology, USA, on the MacOS port; and Franklin Chen, Applied Dynamics, for his MkLinux port.
