One favorite of mine is Danny Hillis' dissertation on the connection machine: http://dspace.mit.edu/bitstream/handle/1721.1/14719/18524280.pdf http://dspace.mit.edu/bitstream/handle/1721.1/14719/18524280... And not really a research paper, but if you haven't read it, you'd might enjoy Guy Steele's Growing a Language: http://www.cs.virginia.edu/~evans/cs655/readings/steele.pdf http://www.cs.virginia.edu/~evans/cs655/readings/steele.pdf
