Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "SISC" in English language version.
SISC as a project began as the successor to the Lightweight Interpreter of Scheme Code (LISC). LISC was a small, stack-based almost R4RS compliant Scheme. SISC was born out of the desire to create an interpreter that was of a similar footprint to LISC, but which executed Scheme code much faster, complied fully to the R5RS standard, and which wasn't limited by the stack-based model. SISC met these goals very quickly, and has since progressed in active development to be a competitive Scheme system. As a successor to LISC the interpreter was named the Second Interpreter of Scheme Code.
