The functional logic programming paradigm combines the two most important fields of declarative programming, namely functional and logic programming, in an integrated way to allow the concise notation of high-level programs. However, the variety of concepts and conciseness of programs may also impact their efficiency. In this work we employ the powerful optimization technique of partial evaluation to develop a fully automatic program optimizer, the so-called partial evaluator. In particular, we formalize the normalization of programs during compilation, establish a formal notation of the evaluation process, develop a formal partial evaluation scheme and prove its correctness and termination, and implement a working partial evaluator which shows impressive results.
Programming languages are often classified according to their paradigms, e.g. imperative, functional, logic, constraint-based, object-oriented, or aspect-oriented. A paradigm characterizes the style, concepts, and methods of the language for describing situations and processes and for solving problems, and each paradigm serves best for programming in particular application areas. Real-world problems, however, are often best implemented by a combination of concepts from different paradigms, because they comprise aspects from several realms, and this combination is more comfortably realized using multiparadigm programming languages. This book deals with the theory and practice of multiparadigm...
The International Logic Programming Symposium is one of two major international conferences sponsored by the Association of Logic Programming. Both conferences are held annually. The theme for the 1995 conference was "Declarative Systems", particularly the integration of the logic programming, functional programming, and object-oriented programming paradigms.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Second International Workshop on Practical Aspects of Declarative Languages, PADL 2000, held in Boston, MA, USA in January 2000. The 21 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 36 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on functional programming, functional-logic programming, logic programming, innovative applications, constraint programming and constraint solving, and systems applications.
