Publisher's Synopsis
This book teaches programming techniques as well as performance analysis of parallel programming languages and architectures using logic programming; specifically, it focuses on the Prolog-like languages OR-parallel Prolog and AND-parallel FGHC.;"Parallel Logic Programming" brings to light practical applications of a previously esoteric/theoretical area of parallel logic programming and presents programming hand-in-hand with performance analysis of real empirical measurements. Its quantitative approach to symbolic parallel programming provides students and professionals with tools for implementing and critically evaluating larger projects. The book includes chapter summaries, programming projects, and a glossary.
