Christian Queinnec, Universite Paris 6, Pierre et Marie Curie LIP6, France
Abstract: Programming web applications in direct style with the
help of continuations is a much simpler, safer, modular and
better-performing technology than the current dominating
"page-centric" technology combining CGI scripts, active pages or
servlets. This paper discusses the use of continuations in the context
of web applications, the problems they solve as well as some new
problems they introduce.
Keywords: Scheme, continuations, hypertext, WWW
