Abstract
A fully abstract model of a programming language assigns the same meaning to two terms if and only if they have the same operational behavior. Such models are well-known for functional languages but little is known about extended functional languages with sophisticated control structures. We show that a direct model with error values and the conventional continuation model are adequate for functional languages augmented with first- and higher-order control facilities, respectively. Furthermore, both models become fully abstract on adding a control delimiter and a parallel conditional to the programming languages.
