A similar approach to Matthew's was implemented and applied to the
Travelling Salesman Problem; see my paper "Experiments with speculative parallelism in Parlog" in ILPS93. A TR version of this paper, and a KL1 version of the actual code, can be found at http://star.cs.bris.ac.uk/Interests/spec.html.
