Unification can be viewed as a generalisation of pattern matching (such as that found in Haskell) in that variables can be bound in both the pattern and the object matched against, rather than just the pattern Unification is used in Prolog for assignment, memory allocation, pattern matching, argument binding, etc As such it can be heavily optimised provided we can discover (essentially) mode information More formally, we assume the existence of a sound method of finding the most general unifier (mgu) of two terms, written See [Llo87b] for more details
