In computer science, graph reduction implements an efficient version of non-strict evaluation, an evaluation strategy where the arguments to a function are not immediately evaluated.
This form of non-strict evaluation is also known as lazy evaluation and used in functional programming languages.
The technique was first developed by Chris Wadsworth in 1971.
