do you know if there is another way either to compute the closure of a function or to serialize it in order to send the computation to another host?
You'll need to capture the functions as serializable data while it is being constructed. I am not sure of a good way to do this, but I think tangible values [1] and the associated DeepArrow features developed by Conal Elliott might provide a decent basis. These are based around the notions of representing functions and how they work internally, and composing them dynamically. [1] http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/TV
