Abstract

It is already known that a Concurrent Prolog program can be compiled into an equivalent Prolog program. Using a Concurrent Prolog interpreter written in Prolog, we converted Concurrent Prolog programs step by step to compiled codes in Prolog. Each conversion step was successfully executed on a Prolog language processor. We examined how each conversion step contributed to performance improvement, using sample Concurrent Prolog programs such as a meta interpreter.
