Static Call: Called program (name) is fixed and the subprogram is part of the same load module.

Dyanamic Call: Called program (name) can vary and the subprogram is link-edited into a seperate load module and is loaded into storage only if and when called.

XCTL: Control passed to another program through CICS. Control won't came back to main program.

LINK: Control passed to another program through CICS. Control will came back to main program after finishing called program.
