Abstract
The DASWAM system is a proto-type implementation of the DDAS and-parallel
execution scheme for Prolog. It was initially implemented as a pseudo
parallel system where the parallel execution was simulated, but this
was subsequently converted to a real parallel system that has been ported
to a wide range of shared-memory multiprocessors.
The initial results from this system are very encouraging. The purpose of
this paper is to serve as a companion paper to [JICSLP96],
documenting the implementation of the parallel DASWAM system itself.
