Computation Model = Programming Model?

[Thomas Sjöland]

A computational model is a description of how the system computes,
for instance realized as an abstract machine or an inference system
describing the operational semantics.

A programming model is a conceptual model that helps you to program.
In the case of Oz I assume the latter refers also to concepts that
are non-existant from the perspective of the abstract machine
implementing the computation model. In Oz this could be for instance
objects, I guess.

At least this is how I would make the distinction if I wrote a book.
