Abstract:The implementation of functional logic languages by means of graph rewriting requires a special handling of collapsing rules. Recent advances about the notion of a needed step in some constructor systems offer a new approach to this problem. We present two results: a transformation of a certain class of constructor-based rewrite systems that eliminates collapsing rules, and a rewritelike relation that takes advantage of the absence of collapsing rules. We formally state and prove the correctness of these resul… Show more
