From Relational Specifications to Logic Programs
Abstract
This paper presents a compiler from expressive, relational specifications to logic programs. Specifically, the compiler translates the Imperative Alloy specification language to Prolog. Imperative Alloy is a declarative, relational specification language based on first-order logic and extended with imperative constructs; Alloy specifications are traditionally not executable. In spite of this theoretical limitation, the compiler produces useful prototype implementations for many specifications.
