Translating fork specifications into logic programs

In this work a compiler from fork specifications into logic programs is presented. The technique implemented by the compiler consists of transforming a set of fork equations (with some restrictions) into normal logic programs in such a way that the semantics of the fork equations is preserved. After translating a fork specification, it can be executed by consulting the generated logic program. The fork compiler, a tool for the translation, is also introduced.Facultad de Informátic
