In 1977 David Warren described an instruction set and execution model for compiled Prolog [63]. This design was later modified and provided as an abstract machine specification which has become know as the Warren Abstract Machine (WAM) [57, 64]. The architecture described in this book extends the WAM and provides a description of the resulting machine and its implementation in hardware.
