Logic programming systems which exploit and-parallelism among non-deterministic goals rely on notions of independence among those goals in order to ensure certain efficiency properties. "Non-strict" independence (NSI) is a more relaxed notion than the traditional notion of "strict" independence (SI) which still ensures the relevant efficiency properties and can allow considerable more parallelism than SI. However, all compilation technology developed to date has been based on SI, presumably because of the intrinsic complexity of exploiting NSI. This is related to the fact that NSI cannot be determined "a priori" as SI. This paper fills this gap by developing a technique for compile-time detection and annotation of NSI. It also proposes algorithms for combined compile- time/run-time detection, presenting novel run-time checks for this type of parallelism. Also, a transformation procedure to eliminate shared variables among parallel goals is presented, attempting to perform as much work as possible at compiletime. The approach is based on the knowledge of certain properties about run-time instantiations of program variables —sharing and freeness— for which compile-time technology is available, with new approaches being currently proposed.
