....The (implicit) environment passing approach as taken in the language FL [3] has as main disadvantage that the order of evaluation is fixed. This is problematic for program transformations, introducing sharing of computations and exploitation of parallelism. The token stream approaches [21] 9] [10], 14] suffer from inefficiency, because programs are obliged to get input by outputting tokens (doing requests) The input can be handled synchronously or asynchronously. When it is handled asynchronously one has to parse the input to determine the corresponding response. When it is handled ....
