Summary:Abstract: "We show how a new method for parallel logic programming, based on compilation of Tärnlund's inference system Reform, can be applied to the logic programming language Prolog. We retain the sequential left-to-right depth-first backtracking scheme with one exception: the recursion levels of a recursive program, including the head unifications at each level, are computed in parallel. We discuss criteria for when a program is amenable to this kind of parallel processing and describe parallel Reform Prolog solutions of some programming problems."
