HUNTSVILLE, ALABAMA, U.S.A., 1990 FEB 1 (NB) -- Quintus
Computer Systems, a subsidiary of Intergraph of Huntsville, began
deliveries of its Quintus Prolog Release 2.5 for Sun
workstations.
The program will become available on Intergraph's
own Clipper and RISC Workstations from Digital Equipment later in
the first quarter. "All of our products are released for Sun
first, because it's one of our largest customers," said a Quintus
spokesman. Intergraph acquired Quintus last October. "They were
very nice about it," the spokesman said about the Huntsville
bosses.
Enhancements include linking of Prolog rules which can now be put
into a "shareable" section of a Unix-executable program file. An
advanced Interprocess Communication Package allows Prolog
processes to act as knowledge servers on a Unix network. A GNU
Emacs interface provides a connection between the program and the
popular GNU Emacs editor. Application developers using Quintus
Prolog Release 2.5 can deliver runtime applications which include
Quintus ProWindows and Database Interface add-on products,
running on many different platforms.
