The Design and Implementation of Generics for the .NET Common Language Runtime
Our design is very expressive, supporting parameterized types,
polymorphic static, instance and virtual methods, “F-bounded”
type parameters, instantiation at pointer and value types, polymorphic recursion, and exact run-time types. The implementation takes advantage of the dynamic nature of the runtime, performing justin-
time type specialization, representation-based code sharing and
novel techniques for efficient creation and use of run-time types.
Early performance results are encouraging and suggest that programmers
will not need to pay an overhead for using generics,
achieving performance almost matching hand-specialized code.

Generic C# Sample Programs
The following programs have been implemented in Generic C#:
- A class hierarchy representing a tiny language of typed expressions
- A convex hull algorithm
- Converting regular expressions to deterministic finite automata
- Several different interfaces to quicksort Generic collection classes
- Creating and printing an index of word occurrences
- A typed parser combinator library
- Rings, complex numbers, and polynomials
- Generic method memoization
- A tricky example due to Erik Ernst
