##TUTORIALS (All week):

INTRODUCTION TO PROLOG   (Mon,  8/15  --  8:30-5:00)  Christopher
Mellish, University of Edinburgh
An introduction to Prolog for engineers, programmers, and  scien-
tists  with  no background in the language.  Tutorial Text:  Pro-
gramming in Prolog,  3rd ed. W. Clocksin & C. Mellish,  Springer-
Verlag.

ABSTRACT  INTERPRETATION   (Mon  8/15   --   1:30-5:00)   Maurice
Bruynooghe, Universiteit Leuven
Directed at the advanced Prolog  programmer,  the  tutorial  will
develop  a  general framework for extracting global properties of
logic programs (e.g., mode & type inferencing,  detecting  deter-
minism)  via the use of abstract interpretation.  The course will
sketch:  (1) A formal framework for  abstract  interpretation  of
logic  programs which relies on familiar notions about the execu-
tion of logic programs and uses only a small amount of mathemati-
cal  machinery  concerning  partial  orders;  (2)  The process of
developing an application within this framework;  (3)  High-level
comments  on  the structure of a correctness proof of an applica-
tion.

IMPLEMENTATION OF PROLOG (Tues, 8/16 -- 8:30-12:00)  D.H.D.  War-
ren, Manchester Univ.
This tutorial presents the detailed design of the Prolog  engine,
now  known  as  the WAM.  The tutorial provides a detailed under-
standing of the WAM and why WAM-based Prolog  systems  are  effi-
cient.   It also gives insight into how to write efficient Prolog
programs for WAM-based compilers.  Attendees  should  know  basic
Prolog  programming  and  it  would help to have some familiarity
with compiler technology.

PARALLEL EXECUTION SCHEMES  (Thurs, 8/18 -- 8:30-5:00) L.  Kale',
Univ. of Illinois
This tutorial will describe the individual schemes  for  parallel
execution  of  logic programs that have been proposed so far, and
develop an understanding of their place in the spectrum along the
dimensions of: degree of parallelism, overhead, targeted applica-
tions, and type of multi-processor best suited  for  the  scheme.
The  tutorial  will  be of interest to anyone planning to build a
parallel logic programming system, as well as beginning research-
ers  in the area.  A basic knowledge of logic programming will be
presumed

CONSTRAINT LOGIC PROGRAMMING   (Tues,  8/16  --  1:30-5:00)  J-L.
Lassez et al., IBM
CLP offers a framework to reason with and  about  constraints  in
the  context of Logic Programming.  The fundamental principles of
this paradigm are presented in order to illustrate the expressive
power  of constraints and to show how they naturally merge with a
Logic Programming rule-based system.  Next the design and  imple-
mentation  of  a  CLP system is discussed, focusing on efficiency
issues of constraint solving, followed  by  the  descriptions  of
several applications.  A basic knowledge of Prolog is presumed.

CLP AND OPTIONS  TRADING   (Wed  8/17  --  8:30-12:00)  Catherine
Lassez, IBM and Fumio Mizoguchi, Science Univ. of Tokyo
This tutorial will explore the application  of  Constraint  Logic
Programming (CLP) to financial problems, in particular to options
trading.   The  chosen  examples  will  demonstrate  the  special
strengths  of  combined  symbolic and numeric constraint-oriented
reasoning in a logic programming setting.  Knowledge  of  CLP  or
attendance at the "Introduction to CLP" tutorial is essential for
this course.

LOGIC PROGRAMMING & LEGAL REASONING   (Wed  8/17  --  8:30-12:00)
Robert  Kowalski,  Imperial  College,  and Marek Sergot, Imperial
College
The unique charateristics of legal  reasoning  are  apparent  not
only in legal domains, but underlie administrative procedures and
many data processing applications.  The use of logic for  analyz-
ing  legal  reasoning has a long tradition.  Computer implementa-
tion of legal reasonoing involves representing and reasoning with
legal  language,  the relationship between rules and regulations,
and the policies they implement.  The tutorial will  examine  the
use  of  logic programming for analyzing such questions, for both
real and hypothetical cases.

PRACTICAL PROLOG FOR REAL PROGRAMMERS  (Thurs, 8/18 -- 1:30-5:00)
Richard O'Keefe, Quintus Computer Systems
This tutorial assumes that you understand the elementary  aspects
of  Prolog programming, such as recursion, pattern matching, par-
tial data structures, and so on, and want to know how to use Pro-
log  to  build  practical  programs.  Topics covered will include
"choice points and how to use the cut", "setofPhow it  works  and
what  it  is  good  for",  "efficient  data  structures",  "mixed
language programming", and "programming methodology".  All topics
will be illustrated by working code.

LOGIC GRAMMARS FOR NL& COMPILING  (Fri, 8/19 -- 8:30-12:00)  Har-
vey Abramson, Univ. of British Columbia
This tutorial assumes a  basic  knowledge  of  Logic  Programming
techniques,  but  does  not assume a detailed knowledge either of
linguistics or of compilation techniques.  The tutorial will show
how  logic programming naturally applies to both natural and for-
mal grammars.  Tutorial topics include: 1) Use  of  Metamorphosis
Grammars and Definite Clause Grammars to produce derivation trees
and semantic transforms;  2) Use of related  grammar  formalisms;
3)   Compilation  from  natural language to logical form and from
programming languages to  machine  code  using   Definite  Clause
Translation Grammars, a logical version of Attribute Grammars; 4)
Top-down versus bottom-up parsing, chart-parsing, and the use  of
parallelism and concurrency.
