CLP(R)
Constraint Logic Programming (Real).
A
constraint logic programming language with
real arithmetic
constraints developed by Joxan Jaffar <
[email protected]> 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.
