Title
An Architecture for Very Large Rule Bases Based on Surrogate Files
Abstract
To support a large set of rule bases as well as ground facts, we propose an efficient retrieval method by transforming heads of clauses and facts into Concatenated Code Words (CCW) to form a surrogate file. By adopting the ‘mode’ declarations used in PARLOG, the heads of clauses can be represented by function-free terms, and then are transformed to CCW to be used as an index to gain access to the actual database. A simplified unification operation on surrogate files can be efficiently implemented by means of a specialized associative processor due to the uniform structure of surrogate files.
