Abstract

We have modified Concurrent Prolog (CP) Interpreter (Shapiro 1983) and implemented Extended Concurrent Prolog (ECP) Interpreter (Fujitsu 1985), which has OR-parallel, set-abstraction and meta-inference facilities. In Shapiro's CP interpreter only the AND-related goals are enqueued to the scheduling queue. None of OR-related clauses is dealt with. However, our ECP interpreter has only one scheduling queue to which all the AND-related goals and all the OR-related clauses are enqueued. This scheduling method is designated “AND-OR queuing.” AND-OR queuing makes it possible to handle all kinds of AND-relations and OR-relations in a uniform manner.
