A combined object-oriented and logic programming tool for AI

Object-oriented programming and logic programming are two of the most used programming paradigms in artificial intelligence. The authors describe a proposal to combine these two paradigms into a common logical framework. The combined framework encompasses the main features of both paradigms, making it a suitable tool for developing AI applications. First, the combined paradigm is defined as the combination of the main properties of both paradigms. Then, the authors describe the main features of the Plog programming language, a logical language that supports such a paradigm
