Implementation of Narrowing: The Prolog-Based Approach

by P. H. Cheong, L. Fribourg - Logic programming languages: constraints, functions, and objects , 1993
"... We present the problem of integrating functional languages and logic languages. We explain why the narrowing-based techniques have so far prevailed as operational mechanisms for the functional logic interpreters. We then discuss various strategies of narrowing. Finally we explain how to simulate the ..."

these strategies of narrowing using the leftmost SLD-resolution rule of Prolog, and compare some experimental results with those obtained with direct narrowing implementations. 1. Introduction There has been a flurry of research on the integration of functional programming (FP) and logic programming (LP). A

Systematic design of program analysis frameworks

by Patrick Cousot, Radhia Cousot - In 6th POPL , 1979

LLVM: A compilation framework for lifelong program analysis & transformation

by Chris Lattner, Vikram Adve , 2004
"... ... a compiler framework designed to support transparent, lifelong program analysis and transformation for arbitrary programs, by providing high-level information to compiler transformations at compile-time, link-time, run-time, and in idle time between runs. LLVM defines a common, low-level code re ..."

Usability Analysis of Visual Programming Environments: a `cognitive dimensions' framework

by T. R. G. Green, M. Petre - JOURNAL OF VISUAL LANGUAGES AND COMPUTING , 1996
"... The cognitive dimensions framework is a broad-brush evaluation technique for interactive devices and for non-interactive notations. It sets out a small vocabulary of terms designed to capture the cognitively-relevant aspects of structure, and shows how they can be traded off against each other. T ..."
Abstract - Cited by 514 (13 self) - Add to MetaCart
. The purpose of this paper is to propose the framework as an evaluation technique for visual programming environments. We apply it to two commercially-available dataflow languages (with further examples from other systems) and conclude that it is effective and insightful; other HCI-based evaluation

Refactoring Object-Oriented Frameworks

by William F. Opdyke , 1992
"... This thesis defines a set of program restructuring operations (refactorings) that support the design, evolution and reuse of object-oriented application frameworks. The focus of the thesis is on automating the refactorings in a way that preserves the behavior of a program. The refactorings are defin ..."

Abduction in Logic Programming

by Marc Denecker, Antonis Kakas

Abduction in Logic Programming started in the late 80s, early 90s, in an attempt to extend logic programming into a framework suitable for a variety of problems in Artificial Intelligence and other areas of Computer Science. This paper aims to chart out the main developments of the field over th ..."

GOLOG: A Logic Programming Language for Dynamic Domains

by Hector J. Levesque, Raymond Reiter, Yves Lespérance, Fangzhen Lin, Richard B. Scherl , 1994
"... This paper proposes a new logic programming language called GOLOG whose interpreter automatically maintains an explicit representation of the dynamic world being modeled, on the basis of user supplied axioms about the preconditions and effects of actions and the initial state of the world. This allo ..."
Abstract - Cited by 628 (74 self) - Add to MetaCart
for applications in high level control of robots and industrial processes, intelligent software agents, discrete event simulation, etc. It is based on a formal theory of action specified in an extended version of the situation calculus. A prototype implementation in Prolog has been developed.

Monads for functional programming

by Philip Wadler , 1995
"... The use of monads to structure functional programs is described. Monads provide a convenient framework for simulating effects found in other languages, such as global state, exception handling, output, or non-determinism. Three case studies are looked at in detail: how monads ease the modification o ..."

PVM: A Framework for Parallel Distributed Computing

by V. S. Sunderam - Concurrency: Practice and Experience , 1990
"... The PVM system is a programming environment for the development and execution of large concurrent or parallel applications that consist of many interacting, but relatively independent, components. It is intended to operate on a collection of heterogeneous computing elements interconnected by one or ..."

Concurrent Constraint Programming

by Vijay A. Saraswat, Martin Rinard , 1993
