Abstract
It is shown that Prolog can serve as a multi-purpose language in an image management system. With sufficient support routines, Prolog: is interpretive, in order to give immediate response; is programmable, allowing users to compose commands; can update and query the image database; can be used for optimization and constraint rules; and can perform input/output and communications. The architecture of PROFIM is described. The necessary enhancements of Prolog for it to be widely used in image management systems are summarized
