Our implementation of and as a series combination of queries ; (figure 4.5) is elegant, but it is inefficient because in processing the ; second query of the and we must scan the data base for each frame produced by ; the first query. If the data base has N elements, and a typical query ; produces a number of output frames proportional to N (say N/k), then scanning ; the data base for each frame produced by the first query will require N2/k ; calls to the pattern matcher. Another approach would be to process the two ; clauses of the and separately, then look for all pairs of output frames that ; are compatible. If each query produces N/k output frames, then this means ; that we must perform N2/k2 compatibility checks -- a factor of k fewer than ; the number of matches required in our current method. ; Devise an implementation of and that uses this strategy. You must implement a ; procedure that takes two frames as inputs, checks whether the bindings in the ; frames are compatible, and, if so, produces a frame that merges the two sets ; of bindings. This operation is similar to unification.
