For one of my grad school classes, I'm writing a paper on "Dynamic Languages". What a wonderfully vague topic (but at least it'll let me write about Python).
Anyway, I want to talk about things like typing disciplines (weak, strong, etc.),"class vs. prototype, JIT technologies in dynamic languages, interactive interpreters, etc. I've got Brett Cannon's thesis already, but I'm looking for references to some more papers on these topics. A Python basis for any of the papers would be preferred, but anything will do. Any suggestions? This is my first real research paper in grad school, so I'm starting out from scratch here.
