Seed7 is based on the diploma thesis and the doctorate thesis of Thomas Mertes. Both thesis are in german and can be found in the library of the Vienna University of Technology (In german: Technische Universität Wien).

• The diploma thesis is from 1984 and has the title:
  "Entwurf einer erweiterbaren höheren Programmiersprache"
  (In english: Design of an extensible higher programming language)
  An abstract can be found here.
• The doctorate thesis is from 1986 and has the title:
  "Definition einer erweiterbaren höheren Programmiersprache"
  (In english: Definition of an extensible higher programming language)
  A german abstract can be found here.
  The complete (german) doctorate thesis is available here.
• In 2007 Daniel Zingaro, McMaster University, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada
  wrote a paper about Modern Extensible Languages (see also here or here).
  This paper contains a paragraph about Seed7 (at page 16).
  
• In 2008 Mensanator wrote a Collatz Conjecture comic book.
  It explores the 3n+C extension of the Collatz Conjecture.
  In the article two Seed7 programs are used

  	Brent's algorithm:		ecd010.sd7
  	Sedgewick's algorithm:		scd002.sd7

• The blog article Statically linked Linux executables with GCJ, Seed7 and haXe by Remo Laubacher on the June 2nd, 2011 describes experiences with Seed7. Citation:
  
  

  Among others, there's a small webserver as well a basic interpreter which impressed me quite a bit.

  
  
• The book Rigorous Methods for Software Construction and Analysis from Jean-Raymond Abrial (ISBN 3-642-11446-6) writes at page 166:
  
  

  To the best of our knowledge, among all these languages only the Seed7 programming language supports the introduction of new syntax and their semantics into the language.
