Abstract
G-LOG is a PROLOG semi-compiler written in the C programming language. G-LOG was designed to be a transportable, easily extensible non-procedural language which provides easy access to routines written in other programming languages. A primary use of G-LOG will be for the construction of a non-procedural executive for an expert system which calls existing routines to execute procedural functions. This versatility should enable industry investments in complex programs to be updated into a customized expert system. The history and philosophy of PROLOG is sketched first, then the syntax required by G-LOG is presented. The implementation of G-LOG is discussed in detail. Novel aspects of G-LOG include semi-compilation of variables and user-written system primitives. Guidelines for the application programmer are given.
