                 of {"}\ldots papers dealing with the basic issue of
                 'how to add state to a functional language' (this would
                 include things such as linear type ststems; monadic,
                 continuations-based, or stream-based ideas; typing of
                 references; I/O; etc.){"}. We have taken a flexible
                 approach to defining {"}functional languages{"}: we
                 want to enable users of this bibliography to study not
                 only the addition of state constructs to pure
                 functional languages such as Haskell and Miranda (which
                 ostensibly lack them), but also the formal
                 rationalization of similar languages, such as Scheme
                 and Standard ML, which already include such constructs.
                 We definitely exclude the vast classical literature on
                 state in {"}conventional{"} programming languages. We
                 also exclude the vast literature on optimization
                 techniques (most of which are based on abstract
                 interpretation) for improving the performance of
                 state-manipulating functional programs. The rough
                 dividing line is the use of the lambda-calculus as a
                 tool in language definition.",
