CLP(R)
Constraint Logic Programming (Real).
A constraint logic programming language with real arithmetic constraints
developed by Joxan Jaffar
<joxan@watson.ibm.com> of IBM TJWRC and S. Michaylov of Monash
University in 1986.
The implementation contains a byte-code compiler and a built-in constraint
solver which deals with linear arithmetic and contains a mechanism for delaying
nonlinear constraints until they become linear. Since CLP(R) is a superse of
PROLOG, the system is also usable as a general-purpose logic programming
language. There are also powerful facilities for meta programming with
constraints.
Significant CLP(R) applications have been published in diverse areas such as
molecular biology, finance and physical modelling.
Version 1.2 for Unix, MS-DOS and OS/2 is available from the authors. It is free
for academic and research purposes.
