Hello, everybody!

I am looking for information (books, papers etc.) on prolog *implementations*.
I am specially interested in the following:
  -- What are the prevailing implementation approaches (fundamental ideas of
     implementations)?
  -- What optimizations do Prolog implementations apply (e.g., tail recursion
     eliminination), how do they manage their resources (e.g. garbage
     collection)?
  -- What ideas are behind Prolog *compilers* (such as Turbo Prolog), and what
     are the inherent limits of such approaches?

Are there any overviews?
Thanks for your help
