Logic Programming in Perl article

Hi all,

For anyone who's interested, the next issue of The Perl Review
(http://www.theperlreview.com/) will have an article entitle "Logic
Programming in Perl."  This will be a greatly expanded version of my
OSCON talk, the slides of which may be found at
http://users.easystreet.com/ovid/presentations/logic/.

In this article, there will be a basic introduction to Prolog, via
AI::Prolog (http://search.cpan.org/dist/AI-Prolog/).  I will also be
discussing its strengths and weaknesses vis a vis Perl and relational
databases.

For those interested in the topic, it's also worth looking at Logic
(http://search.cpan.org/dist/Logic/), a rather interesting take on
Logic programming by Luke Palmer.  For much better performance, there's
also Language::Prolog::Yaswi
(http://search.cpan.org/dist/Language-Prolog-Yaswi/) by Salvador
Fandiño García.  The latter allows you to access SWI-Prolog
(http://www.swi-prolog.org/) from Perl.

Cheers,
Ovid
