We add functional continuations and prompts to a language with an ML-style type system. The operators significantly extend and simplify the control operators in SML/NJ, and can be themselves used to implement (simple) exceptions. We prove that well-typed terms never produce run-time type errors and give a module for implementing them in the latest version of SML/NJ.

Most programming languages adopt static binding, but for distributed programming an exclusive reliance on static binding is too restrictive: dynamic binding is required in various guises, for example when a marshalled value is received from the network, containing identifiers that must be rebound to local resources. Typically it is provided only by ad-hoc mechanisms that lack clean semantics. In this

We give an analysis of various classical axioms and characterize a notion of minimal classical logic that enforces Peirce's law without enforcing Ex Falso Quodlibet. We show that a \natural" implementation of this logic is Parigot's classical natural deduction.

Abstract: After a period of oblivion, a renewal of interest in coroutines is being observed. However, most current implementations of coroutine mechanisms are restricted, and motivated by particular uses. The convenience of providing true coroutines as a general control abstraction is disregarded. This paper presents and discusses the coroutine facilities provided by the language Lua, a full implementation of the concept of asymmetric coroutines. It also shows that this powerful construct supports easy and succint implementations of useful control behaviors.

We study the typing of control operators in a language with an ML-style type system. We

Recent advances in programming languages study and design have established a standard way of grounding computational systems representation in category theory. These formal results led to a better understanding of issues of control and side-e#ects in functional and imperative languages.
