+<p>
+For any LP system, tabling can be quite handy in a variety of tasks,
+especially if it is efficiently implemented
+and fully integrated in the language.
+Implementing tabling in Mercury
+poses special challenges for several reasons.
+First, Mercury is both semantically and culturally quite different from Prolog.
+While decreeing that tabled predicates must not include cuts
+is acceptable in a Prolog system,
+it is not acceptable in Mercury,
+since if-then-elses and existential quantification
+have sound semantics for stratified programs
+and are used very frequently
+both by programmers and by the compiler.
+The Mercury implementation thus has no option
+but to handle interactions of tabling
+with Mercury's language features safely.
+Second, the Mercury implementation is vastly different from the WAM,
+and many of the differences
+(e.g. the absence of a trail)
+have significant impact on the implementation of tabling.
+In this paper, we describe how we adapted the copying approach to tabling
+to implement minimal model tabling in Mercury.
