Many functional logic languages are based on narrowing, a unification-based goal-solving mechanism which subsumes the reduction mechanism of functional languages and the resolutio...
For memory constrained environments like embedded systems, optimization for program size is often as important, if not more important, as optimization for execution speed. Commonl...
The widespread distribution and availability of smallscale sensors, actuators, and embedded processors is transforming the physical world into a computing platform. One such examp...
Sensor networks can be viewed as large distributed databases, and SQL-like high-level declarative languages can be used for data and information retrieval. Energy constraints make ...
