Scheme Request for Implementation 160,
"Homogeneous numeric vector libraries,"
by John Cowan (based on SRFI 4 by Marc Feeley),

Here's the abstract:
This SRFI describes a set of datatypes for vectors whose
elements are of the same numeric type (signed or unsigned exact
integer or inexact number of a given precision). These
datatypes support operations analogous to the Scheme vector
type, but they are distinct datatypes. An external
representation is specified which may be supported by the read
and write procedures and by the program parser (i.e. programs
can contain references to literal homogeneous vectors).
Regards,
SRFI Editor
