On the Implementation of Dynamic Patterns
Abstract
The evaluation mechanism of pattern matching with dynamic patterns is modelled in the Pure Pattern Calculus by one single meta-rule. This contribution presents a refinement which narrows the gap between the abstract calculus and its implementation. A calculus is designed to allow reasoning on matching algorithms. The new calculus is proved to be confluent, and to simulate the original Pure Pattern Calculus. A family of new, matching-driven, reduction strategies is proposed.
