The influence of KRC and SASL on Haskell?

During the Haskell training, I took up a side movement (so to speak) in the study of Kent's recursive calculator and SASL functional languages. I was immediately struck by the similarities between them and Haskell, and as they precede this, I wonder if they had / how they had an impact.

Any information on the impact (or lack thereof) of KRC and SASL on Haskell would be greatly appreciated.

The connection you're probably looking for here is that David Turner , who was largely responsible for SASL and KRC, also participated in Miranda , a non-strict, purely functional language. Miranda was relatively popular at the time, but was a patented language; Miranda's open standard alternative was the main motivation for creating Haskell.

For more information, see also “Haskell's Story: Being Lazy with the Class” , Hoodak, Hughes, SPJ and Wadler, which mention Turner's Work, as well as other influences on Haskell.
