....an object is an individual variable, standing for the infinite list of its states during history. The concept of attribute is often understood more generally in mergers than in conventional OO (see Section 3 for details) Attribute value changes. Zaniolo s approach enables no dynamics. ESP [Chi84], SPOOL [FH86] and Prolog [Mos90] make use of imperative assignments. Predominantly, states are revised exploiting the assert and retract built in predicates. In ObjVProlog [MLV89] semantically cleaner predicates assume and forget are made use of. Shapiro and Takeuchi, Mandala, and ....

....When a user utilizes data and knowledge in QUI XOT E, multiple databases can be accessed simultaneously through the QUIXOT E server, although the concurrency control of the current version of QUIXOT E is simply implemented. ffl Users can use databases through their application programs in ESP [Chikayama 1984] or KL1 [Ueda and Chikayama 1990] and through the specific window interface called Qmacs. The environment is shown in Figure 5. The first version of QUIXOT E was released in December, 1991. A second version was released in April, 1992. Both versions are written in KL1 and work on parallel ....

....parameterized objects with methods lists, expressed directly using Prolog operators. Inheritance is overriding. Ancestors are tried in the order in which they are declared. The implementation uses meta interpretation in Prolog. Self reference is not supported. Extended Self contained Prolog(ESP) [31, 32] is a language built on top of KL0, a Prolog like language, and the run time is directly supported by PSI, a Personal Sequential Inference machine. It is designed as a system programming language for PSI. Objects are represented as vectors of KL0. Changes of instance variables are performed by ....

....a language are not those of the authors of the language but are mine) The reader is supposed to have some familiarity with Prolog and Smalltalk (or some other OO language) The languages are presented in chronological order. 2. 1 esp: The Fifth Generation esp (Extended Self contained Prolog) [4, 5, 13] was not explicitly designed for KR; it is the system description language of SIMPOS (Sequential Inferential Machine Programming and Operating System) the operating system of the flagship machine of the FGCS project, the PSI (Personal Sequential Inference) It is built over the Prolog like ....

.... PE by SCSI bus, which is also used to connect other special I O devices, other PIM systems, and or front end processors (FEP) The FEP is a high performance AI workstation, PSI UX [Nakashima et al. 1990] It has a special attachment processor to execute a sequential logic programming language ESP [Chikayama 1984]. Since the CPU kernel of FEP is that of PIM m s PE, FEP is also capable to execute KL1 in single processor environment or simulated multiprocessor environment. Therefore, programmers use FEP not only as an interactive I O system, but also as a convenient debugging workbench. 2.2 Processor ....

....Kahn s Intermission [44] Hewitt and Agha s Actors also influenced this approach. The seminal paper is by Shapiro and Takeuchi [69] and later languages are Mandala [30] Vulcan [47, 45, 48] Polka [20, 21] A 0 UM [77, 78] The base language of the Fifth Generation Computer Systems project ESP [14, 15, 40] can also be counted here. A good introduction to these ideas is [46] The mechanics of modeling OO notions in this paradigm is as follows [69] 1. Objects are represented by perpetual predicates (proof processes) In order to persist between message sends, the object has to explicitly reinstate ....
