Abstract:

The -calculus integrates in a uniform and simple setting rst-order rewriting, -calculus and nondeterministic computations. Its abstraction mechanism is based on the rewrite rule formation and its main evaluation rule is based on matching modulo a theory T. We have seen in the rst part of this work the motivations, denitions and basic properties of the -calculus. This second part is rst devoted to the use of the -calculus for encoding a (conditional) rewrite relation. To this end we extend the calculus with a rst operator whose purpose is to detect rule application failure. This extension allows us to express recursively rule application and therefore to encode strategy based rewriting processes. We then use this extended calculus to give an operational semantics to ELAN programs. We conclude with an overview of ongoing and future works on -calculus.
