At one time Gerry Sussman and Drew McDermott thought that using re-invocable continuations (which they called "Hairy Control Structure") was the solution to the AI control structure problems that had originated in Planner. Carl Hewitt et al. developed message passing as an alternative solution in the Actor model. Guy "The Great Quux" Steele and Gerry Sussman then developed the continuations in Scheme in their attempt to understand the Actor model.
