Compiling Unit Clauses For The Warren Abstract Machine, George D. Herbert
Compiling Unit Clauses For The Warren Abstract Machine, George D. Herbert
UNF Graduate Theses and Dissertations
This thesis describes the design, development, and installation of a computer program which compiles unit clauses generated in a Prolog-based environment at Argonne National Laboratories into Warren Abstract Machine (WAM) code. The program enhances the capabilities of the environment by providing rapid unification and subsumption tests for the very significant class of unit clauses. This should improve performance substantially for large programs that generate and use many unit clauses.
