چکیده

We introduce a systematic, concurrent execution scheme for Constraint Handling Rules (CHR) based on a previously proposed sequential goal-based CHR semantics. We establish strong correspondence results to the abstract CHR semantics, thus guaranteeing that any answer in the concurrent, goal-based CHR semantics is reproducible in the abstract CHR semantics. Our work provides the foundation to obtain efficient, parallel CHR execution schemes.

A Rule-Based Specification of Software Transactional Memory

Software Transactional Memory (STM) has the promise to avoid the common pitfalls of locks when writing thread-based concurrent programs. Many papers on the subject deal with low-level implementation details to support the efficient and concurrent execution of multiple transactions. We give a rule-based specification of Software Transactional Memory in terms of Constraint Handling Rules (CHR) wh...

Description Logic and Rules the CHR Way Extended Abstract

The challenges of the Semantic Web endeavour in knowledge representation and reasoning prompted a wealth of research in combining description logic (DL) as ontology languages (e.g. OWL) with logic programming for rule-based reasoning. General issues of combining and integrating formalisms have to be faced such as the type of combination, conceptual simplicity and tractability. Even though const...

Specialization of Concurrent Guarded Multi-set Transformation Rules

Program transformation and in particular partial evaluation are appealing techniques for declarative programs to improve not only their performance. This paper presents the first step towards developing program transformation techniques for a concurrent constraint programming language where guarded rules rewrite and augment multi-sets of atomic formulae, called Constraint Handling Rules (CHR). ...

Verification of Constraint Handling Rules using Linear Logic Phase Semantics

Constraint Handling Rules (CHR) is a declarative concurrent programming language. Like the class of Concurrent Constraint (CC) languages, CHR features a declarative semantics based on Girard’s intuitionistic linear logic. The phase semantics of linear logic has been used in the past to prove safety properties for the class of CC languages. In this paper we show that we can adapt this result to ...

Observational equivalences for linear logic concurrent constraint languages

Linear logic Concurrent Constraint programming (LCC) is an extension of concurrent constraint programming (CC) where the constraint system is based on Girard’s linear logic instead of the classical logic. In this paper we address the problem of program equivalence for this programming framework. For this purpose, we present a structural operational semantics for LCC based on a label transition ...
