In  "An Efficient Unification Algorithm" by  Alberto Martelli and Ugo Montanari
ACM TOPLS Vol. 4, No. 2  1982, the  authors described an  unification algorithm
that has occur check built-in and also has a better performance than Huet's and
Paterson and Wegman's method.

Does  anyone know that if  this algorithm is used  in any  Prolog system? Is in
reality this  algorithm  is as  good as the authors  claimed? And how about the
implementation cost  of this method?  Is there any other unification  algorithm
has a better performance?

Thanks in advance.
