The complete exposure of the control flow makes CPS a good fit for
implementing control operators such as effect handlers. It is an
established intermediate representation used by compilers, providing
it with merits as a practical compilation
target~\cite{Appel92,Kennedy07}.
The purpose of this chapter is to use the CPS formalism to develop a
universal implementation strategy for deep, shallow, and parameterised
effect handlers. Section~\ref{sec:target-cps} defines a suitable

interesting future direction of research would be to extend $\HCalc$
with multi handlers and explore their practical programming
applicability. The effect system pose an interesting design challenge
for multi handlers as any problematic quirks that occur with unary
applicability. Retrofitting the effect system of $\HCalc$ to provide a
good programmer experience for programming with multi handlers pose an
interesting design challenge as any quirks that occur with unary
handlers only get amplified in the setting of multi handlers.
