A description of hochschild and cyclic homology of commutative algebras via homo logical algebra in functor categories was achieved in 4. This is a way, due to connes, of simplifying the standard double complex, and it is particularly useful for the incorporation of the normalized standard hochschild into the calculation of cyclic homology.
