I can give you some information about your first query.


The basic article about tail recursion elimination is:


-McCarthy J. 1960: Recursive functions of symbolic expressions and
their computation by machine. ACM 3,4. April. pp 184,195.


You will also find a lot of things in :


- Burstall and Darlington 1976: A system which automatically improves
programs. Acta informatica 6. pp 41,60.


- Burstall and Darlington 1977: A transformation system for
developing recursive programs. J. ACM 24,1. January. pp44,67.


More recently, the problem of recursion removal has been described in
the book of Hemut Partsch: Specification and Transformation of
programs. Springer-Verlag. 1990.


I hope this will help.
