Prolog is famous as the first very high level programming language and for its unique potential as a specification, artificial intelligence and general purpose programming language.
Due to the growing number and economic importance of industrial applications of Prolog based systems there is increasing need for information exchange catering to a sophisticated and critical audience in order to discuss achievements, trends, needs and problems of commercial users.
INAP is a forum to discuss results and potential of the application of Prolog in products, production, management, services and software engineering, together with requirements, tools, programming techniques and standards necessary to satisfy technological and economic constraints.
