Abstract

In recent years, no programming language has received the international attention of PROLOG. Currently the Japanese Fifth Generation computing Systems Project (ICOT) is attempting to build an entire series of computers around this language in order to implement a new generation of computers based on symbolic inferencing techniques. In the United States and Europe, PROLOG is being used in relational database applications, natural language processing, theorem proving and automated reasoning, and a variety of other artificial intelligence applications.In this article, we compare several of the newer PROLOG interpreters and compilers with regard to their functionality. This information is useful to researchers in selecting the product which will be the most relevant to their applications.
