Partial evaluation aims to improve the efficiency of a program by specialising it with respect to some known inputs. In this paper, we show that partial evaluation can be an effec...
Abstract. We introduce a just-in-time specializer for Prolog. Just-intime specialization attempts to unify of the concepts and benefits of partial evaluation (PE) and just-in-time...
Our work tackles the problem of finding partial determinations in databases and proposes a compressionbased measure to evaluate them. Partial determinations can be viewed as gener...
Two main aspects of Partial Evaluation for Prolog programs are considered: treatment of cuts and control of recursion. The analysis about cut is exhaustive: we consider occurrence...
In [23] we presented a partial evaluation scheme for a “real life” subset of Prolog, containing first-order built-in’s, simple side-effects and the operational predicate i...
