Introduction
Normalization by Evaluation
Slogan: implement computation in the object language (syntax) by
mapping it to computation in the meta language (semantics)
For the -calculus: interpret object-level abstraction and
application by meta-level abstraction and application
Berger Schwichtenberg (LICS91): objects of the meta-language
can be brought "down" to the object-language
