Semantics-Based Dataflow Analysis of Logic Programs.
Kim Marriott, Harald Søndergaard · 1989
The increased acceptance of Prolog has motivated widespread interest in the semanticsbased dataflow analysis of logic programs and a number of different approaches have been suggested. However, the relationships between these approaches are not clear. The present paper provides a unifying introduction to the approaches by giving novel denotational semantic definitions which capture their essence. In addition, the wide range of analysis tools supported by semantics-based dataflow analysis are discussed. 1
