RE: GLB types in LKB

You could have a look at (Kiefer et al 1999), and also (Kiefer et al
2000). Both references contain essentially the same description of the
optimizations used for efficient glb calculation and lookup. I found
them useful in a recent similar exercise.

Subject: GLB types in LKB

Hi,

I was wondering if someone could help me find some detailed information
of 
how the automatic glbtype creation works in LKB. Is there any
publication 
or stuff I could look up apart from the comments in the source code. I 
would like to implement something similar in a prolog program.

Cheers,

Nicholas
