K: A High-level Knowledge Base Programming Language for Advanced Database Applications
Summary: K: high-level knowledge base language for computation, and for defining, querying, manipulating data in nontraditional domains. Key innovations: extensible OO semantic association model; modularization; knowledge retrieval; multi-paradigm constructs (parallel, nondeterministic, rule-based).
