[epsilon-dev] EPL refactoring

[Sina Madani <sinadoom@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi everyone,

 

I have been working on making EPL more extensible so that alternative implementations are possible, as well as some minor bug fixes. This has resulted in a major refactoring, and I have added a more complete test (see test.epl) for the semantics. The results are the same in both the epl-refactoring branch and master. I have also added some javadocs to the refactored code so that it’s easier to understand what’s going on, although in both the master and refactoring branch the code is extremely complex and difficult to understand due to the inherent complexity of EPL. However, I hope the refactored version is a bit cleaner. If there are no objections, I propose to merge this branch into master so that a parallel implementation can be added (parallelisation based on patterns).

 

Thanks,

Sina
