This book describes Lucid, a multidimensional declarative language based on intensional logic. The mathematical underpinnings of Lucid enable programs to be amenable to verification and transformation. Lucid programs concisely and elegantly express multidimensional computations rich in parallelism that can be robustly exploited using a novel demand-driven model of computation. In addition to being an applications programming language, Lucid also serves as the basis of a system for programming conventional parallel computers and a visual programming system.

... a modest little book that deserves attention. New Scientist, March 1996
I believe that this book would be good for those who are seriously thinking of starting research in MDIP or Lucid topics. Its most important contribution to the general public, outside the MDIP and Lucid communities, is the opening of a new point of view to already well-researched and well-known topics. Useful for its novel approach to many programming issues. Natural Language Engineering

Hardcover. Etat : new. Hardcover. This book describes a powerful language for multidimensional declarative programming called Lucid. Lucid has evolved considerably in the past ten years. The main catalyst for this metamorphosis was the discovery that Lucid is based on intensional logic, one commonly used in studying natural languages. Intensionality, and more specifically indexicality, has enabled Lucid to implicitly express multidimensional objects that change, a fundamental capability withseveral consequences which are explored in this book. The author covers a broad range of topics, from foundations to applications, and from implementations to implications. The role of intensional logicin Lucid as well as its consequences for programming in general is discussed. The syntax and mathematical semantics of the language are given and its ability to be used as a formal system for transformation and verification is presented. The use of Lucid in both multidimensional applications programming and software systems construction (such as a parallel programming system and a visual programming system) is described. A novel model of multidimensional computation--education--is describedalong with its serendipitous practical benefits for harnessing parallelism and tolerating faults. As the only volume that reflects the advances over the past decade, this work will be of great interestto researchers and advanced students involved with declarative language systems and programming. A description of the features and benefits of Lucid, a multidimensional declarative language based on intensional logic. Lucid programs express multidimensional computations that can be exploited using a novel demand-driven model of computation.
