Abstract

This work improves the canonical narrowing previously implemented using Maude 2.7.1 by taking advantage of the new functionalities that Maude 3.2 offers. In order to perform more faithful comparisons between algorithms, we have reimplemented Maude’s built-in narrowing using Maude’s metalevel. We compare these two metalevel implementations with Maude’s built-in narrowing, implemented at the C++ level, through a function that collects all the solutions, since the original command only returns one at a time. The results of these experiments are relevant for narrowing-based protocol analysis tools, as well as for improving the analysis of many other narrowing-based applications such as logical model checking, theorem proving or partial evaluation.
