---

This page covers references to books and journals on PROLOG and logic programming as well as links to other Web sites and pages regarding the topic. There is also a list of international conferences on logic programming. It will be probably the most rapidly growing part of the site. Later this year, I intend to add a list of people in the area as well as add annotations to each reference so that you will be more informed about it before "surfing". Contributions to this page are welcome.

Journals

Journal of Logic Programming

This Journal covers topics from logic programming in general and, of course, it also contains many papers about programming in PROLOG.

 

Journal of Artificial Intelligence

PROLOG and LISP are two widely used programming languages in Artificial Intelligence so you can find interesting papers on PROLOG in this Journal too.

Conferences

International Conference on Logic Programming (ICLP)

probably the main conference on logic programming and PROLOG

 

The Practical Application of Prolog (PAP)

the conference on using PROLOG in real-world applications
organized by the Practical Application Company

 

Logic Programs Transformations (LOPSTR)

the conference on transforming logic programs
