  Blackboard-based extensions in Prolog
De Bosschere K., Tarau P. Software--Practice & Experience 26(1): 49-69, 1996.  Type: Article

Blackboards are a powerful form of communication based on the availability of a global data structure that can be accessed by any process in a controlled way. The use of blackboards results in a parallel language that exploits coarse-g...

  PROLOG for computer science
Dawe M., Dawe C., Springer-Verlag New York, Inc., New York, NY, 1994.  Type: Book (9780387198118)

The authors’ aims include a start from “first principles,” such as a grounding in general logic, perhaps linking to “machine intelligence” philosophy and “empirical significan...

  The art of Prolog (2nd ed.)
Sterling L. (ed), Shapiro E. (ed), MIT Press, Cambridge, MA, 1994.  Type: Book (9780262193382)

Anyone using or planning to use Prolog should read this book. There are other good choices for a first book, including Clocksin and Mellish [1], the book that started it all, but if you want to go beyond a first contact, this book shou...

  Live-structure dataflow analysis for Prolog
Mulkers A., Winsborough W., Bruynooghe M. ACM Transactions on Programming Languages and Systems 16(2): 205-258, 1994.  Type: Article

Conventional implementations of applicative programming languages perform garbage collection at runtime in a nonoptimal way. Eventually, a request for new storage cannot be satisfied because of space exhaustion, at which moment unused ...

  The implementation of Prolog
Boizumault P., Princeton University Press, Princeton, NJ, 1993.  Type: Book (9780691087573)

The author surveys most of the important techniques and principles for the implementation of Prolog. He covers the implementation of so-called classical Prolog systems and Prolog+ systems (Prolog systems that allow modification of the ...

  Prolog in practical compiler writing
Paakki J. The Computer Journal 34(1): 64-72, 1991.  Type: Article

An experiment to assess the suitability of using Prolog’s definite clause grammar (DCG) formalism to write a compiler for moderate-sized languages is reported. The experiment consisted of implementing a compiler for the &...

  The practice of Prolog
Sterling L. (ed), MIT Press, Cambridge, MA, 1990.  Type: Book (9780262193016)

Although Prolog is often associated with artificial intelligence, especially natural language understanding, the stated purpose of this book is to encourage programmers to use Prolog in their day-to-day work. The editor attempts to ac...

  The craft of Prolog
O’Keefe R., MIT Press, Cambridge, MA, 1990.  Type: Book (9789780262150392)

As the author says in the preface, the purpose of this book is to show you how you can write Prolog programs that work, that do not take an unreasonable amount of time, and that are clean enough to show to your friends. It is not a Pro...

  The Performance of Parallel Prolog Programs
Fagin B., Despain A. IEEE Transactions on Computers 39(12): 1434-1445, 1990.  Type: Article

The authors discuss opportunities in Prolog for parallel execution and present experimental data comparing parallel with sequential execution of Prolog programs. They studied a variety of programs and found that most could not be sped ...

  Computational Improvements in Prolog Applications by Predicate Variable Pointers
Karam G. IEEE Transactions on Software Engineering 16(5): 490-497, 1990.  Type: Article

Prolog allows structure-oriented (intensional) and clause-oriented (extensional) programming. The latter often leads to more compact representations of structure, but modifications to the structure require dynamic assertions to add cla...
