Tools for Search Tree Visualization: The APT Tool
The control part of the execution of a constraint logic program can be conceptually shown as a search-tree, where nodes correspond to calis, and whose branches represent conjunctions and disjunctions. This tree represents the search space traversed by the program, and has also a direct
relationship with the amount of work performed by the program. The nodes of the tree can be used to display information regarding the state and origin of instantiation of the variables involved in each cali. This depiction can also be used for the enumeration process. These are the features implemented in APT, a tool which runs constraint logic programs while depicting a (modified) search-tree, keeping at the same time information about the state of the variables at every moment in the execution. This information can be used to replay the execution at will, both forwards and backwards in time. These views can be abstracted when the size of the execution requires it. The search-tree view is used as a framework onto which constraint-level visualizations (such as those presented in the following chapter) can be attached
Graph Creation, Visualisation and Transformation
We describe a tool to create, edit, visualise and compute with interaction
nets - a form of graph rewriting systems. The editor, called GraphPaper, allows
users to create and edit graphs and their transformation rules using an
intuitive user interface. The editor uses the functionalities of the TULIP
system, which gives us access to a wealth of visualisation algorithms.
Interaction nets are not only a formalism for the specification of graphs, but
also a rewrite-based computation model. We discuss graph rewriting strategies
and a language to express them in order to perform strategic interaction net
rewriting
The Ecce and Logen Partial Evaluators and their Web Interfaces
We present Ecce and Logen, two partial evaluators for Prolog using the online and offline approach respectively. We briefly present the foundations of these tools and discuss various applications. We also present new implementations of these tools, carried out in Ciao Prolog. In addition to a command-line interface new user-friendly web interfaces were developed. These enable non-expert users to specialise logic programs using a web browser, without the need for a local installation
Cinnamons: A Computation Model Underlying Control Network Programming
We give the easily recognizable name "cinnamon" and "cinnamon programming" to
a new computation model intended to form a theoretical foundation for Control
Network Programming (CNP). CNP has established itself as a programming paradigm
combining declarative and imperative features, built-in search engine, powerful
tools for search control that allow easy, intuitive, visual development of
heuristic, nondeterministic, and randomized solutions. We define rigorously the
syntax and semantics of the new model of computation, at the same time trying
to keep clear the intuition behind and to include enough examples. The
purposely simplified theoretical model is then compared to both WHILE-programs
(thus demonstrating its Turing-completeness), and the "real" CNP. Finally,
future research possibilities are mentioned that would eventually extend the
cinnamon programming into the directions of nondeterminism, randomness, and
fuzziness.Comment: 7th Intl Conf. on Computer Science, Engineering & Applications
