Lazy Execution in Imperative Programming Languages

Abstract

We introduce and specify an imperative programming language featuring "lazy execution", an imperative analogue to functional programming's lazy evaluation. We investigate common patterns and higher level constructs to simplify programs in such a language. Some behaviours of programs are then measured to demonstrate that they are indeed being lazily executed.
