Abstract

In direct sequel to [Boerger,Rosenzweig 91aj, term representing algebras are introduced, providing an evolving algebra account of WAM representation of terms and their unification. Prolog algebras of the preceeding paper are adapted to term representation, yielding, upon optimization, a mathematical reconstruction of the full WAM, and a proof of its correctness wrt to abstract Prolog algebras, given that the compiler satisfies a set of (explicitly stated) sufficient conditions.
