Book Description

The goal of this book is to bridge the gap between the great traditional Prolog textbooks of the past and the language as it currently is, several decades after these books were written. You will see that many limitations of the past are no longer relevant, while several new constructs are now of great importance even though they are not yet covered in any available Prolog book.

Prolog has continued to attract a great deal of interest in the computer science community, and has turned out to be a basis for an important new generation of programming languages and systems for Artificial Intelligence.

The language has been standardised by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and this book has been updated accordingly. The book has also introduced some new material, clarified some explanations, corrected a number of minor errors, and removed appendices about Prolog systems that are now obsolete.

This book is meant to teach Prolog as a practical programming tool and so it concentrates on the art of using the basic mechanisms of Prolog to solve interesting problems.

• Adventure in Prolog (Dennis Merritt)

  This book takes a pragmatic, rather than theoretical, approach to the language and is designed for programmers interested in learning this powerful language, uses the very first interactive computer games to teach the expressive power of Prolog.

• Logic, Programming and Prolog, 2nd Edition (Ulf Nilsson, et al)

  This book introduces major new developments in a continually evolving field and includes such topics as concurrency and equational and constraint logic programming. What sets this book apart from others on logic programming is the breadth of its coverage.

• Learn Prolog Now! (Patrick Blackburn, et al.)

  This book has became one of the most popular introductions to the Prolog programming language, an introduction prized for its clarity and down-to-earth approach. The emphasis in this book is on using Prolog effectively.

• The Art of Prolog: Advanced Programming Techniques

  This book offers a departure from current books that focus on small programming examples requiring additional instruction in order to extend them to full programming projects. It shows how to design and organize moderate to large Prolog programs.

• Prolog for Programmers (Feliks Kluznia, et al)

  This book is intended as an introduction to Prolog for people familiar with conventional programming languages. It explains in terms of programming constructs and techniques found in Pascal.

• Prolog Programming in Depth (Michael A. Covington)

  This book covers the Prolog programming language thoroughly with an emphasis on building practical application software, not just theory. Readers build several types of expert systems, as well as natural language processing software and utilities.

• An Introduction to Logic Programming Through Prolog (J. Spivey)

  This is one of the few texts that combines three essential theses in the study of logic programming: logic, programming, and implementation. The book contains a concise and self-contained account of the logic behind Prolog programming.

• Prolog Programming: A First Course (Paul Brna)

  The course for which these notes are designed is intended for undergraduate students who have some programming experience and may even have written a few programs in Prolog. The emphasis in this book is on using Prolog effectively.

• Prolog Experiments in Discrete Math, Logic, and Computability

  This book contains programming experiments that are designed to reinforce the learning of discrete mathematics, logic, and computability. The Prolog programming language is the tool used for the experiments in this book.
