stream - Lazy lists in Prolog?

Question

Is it possible to have lazy lists in Prolog? Something like the following:

ones([1 | Y]) :- ones(Y).

Although this obviously doesn't work as it's written.

Markus Triska placed here in public domain some code worth to study:

The title of the document (prost, for Prolog streams) maybe make the document a bit difficult to find, but make sense. Quoting from the above:

Here, "stream" is used in the sense of "sequence", "delayed list", "lazy list" etc. as in Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs, not in the sense of a Prolog input/output stream.
