Parlog

Parlog is a logic programming language designed for efficient utilization of parallel computer architectures. Its semantics is based on first order predicate logic. It expresses concurrency, interprocess communication, indeterminacy and synchronization within the declarative language framework.[1]

It was designed at Imperial College, London by Steve Gregory and Keith L. Clark, as a descendant of IC Prolog and Relational Language.[2][3]

gollark: Wait, is this inspired by osmarksprojectnames?
gollark: Like you have to battle giant futuristic mechs to start a service.
gollark: Very futuristic.
gollark: Hmm, "opticon" sounds cool.
gollark: It will be like systemd, but not similar in almost every way.
