The history of the Scheme programming language begins with the development of earlier members of the Lisp family of languages during second half of the twentieth century, the process of design and development during which language designers Guy L. Steele and Gerald Jay Sussman released the influential Lambda Papers (1975-1980), the growth in popularity of the language, and the era of standardization (1990 onwards). Much of the history of Scheme has been documented by the developers themselves.[1]
