Parallel and Constraint Logic Programming: An Introduction to Logic, Parallelism and Constraints

by Ilias Sakellariou, Ioannis Vlahavas, Panagiotis Tsarchopoulos

Constraint Logic Programming (CLP), an area of extreme research interest in recent years, extends the semantics of Prolog in such a way that the combinatorial explosion, a characteristic of most problems in the field of Artificial Intelligence, can be tackled efficiently. By employing solvers dedicated to each domain instead of the unification algorithm, CLP drastically reduces the search space of the problem, which leads to increased efficiency in...
