The "online" criteria guarantees that the stream operator does not need to buffer an unbounded amount of data (I think). I'm not sure what you mean by "resolve non-directed cycles". The Shivers paper describes the same basic approach of splitting the code for a stream operator in to parts that run before the loop/for each element of a loop/after the loop etc. Splitting multiple operators this way and then merging the parts into a single loop provides the "concurrency" required by the description in John Hughes's thesis.
