10 Oct 2012 | | Abstract: | We present and evaluate a compiler from Prolog (and extensions) to JavaScript
which makes it possible to use (constraint) logic programming to develop the
client side of web applications while being compliant with current industry
standards. Targeting JavaScript makes (C)LP programs executable in virtually
every modern computing device with no additional software requirements from the
point of view of the user. In turn, the use of a very high-level language
facilitates the development of high-quality, complex software. The compiler is
a back end of the Ciao system and supports most of its features, including its
module system and its rich language extension mechanism based on packages. We
present an overview of the compilation process and a detailed description of
the run-time system, including the support for modular compilation into
separate JavaScript code. We demonstrate the maturity of the compiler by
testing it with complex code such as a CLP(FD) library written in Prolog with
attributed variables. Finally, we validate our proposal by measuring the
performance of some LP and CLP(FD) benchmarks running on top of major
JavaScript engines. | | Source: | arXiv, 1210.2864 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
