Abstract:
We study the notion of binding-time analysis for logic programs.
We formalise the unfolding aspect of an on-line partial deduction
system as a Prolog program. Using abstract interpretation, we
collect information about the run-time behaviour of the program.
We use this information to make the control decisions about the
unfolding at analysis time and to turn the on-line system into an
off-line system. We report on some initial experiments.
