There should be some discussion of concrete languages supporting this paradigm, both historical (e.g. Flat Concurrent Prolog), and current (e.g. Oz and Alice). --DavidHopwood 19:33, 29 August 2007 (UTC)
Semantically, concurrent constraint logic programming differs from its non-concurrent versions because a goal evaluation is intended to realize a concurrent process rather than finding a solution to a problem. Most notably, this difference affects how the interpreter behaves when more than one clause is applicable: non-concurrent constraint logic programming recursively tries all clauses; concurrent constraint logic programming chooses only one. This is the most evident effect of an intended directionality of the interpreter, which never revise a choice it has previously taken.
- This seems unnecessarily restrictive. For instance, Oz does recursively try all clauses in the worst case, and Oz is clearly a concurrent constraint logic language. --David-Sarah Hopwood ⚥ (talk) 19:27, 3 December 2009 (UTC)
This title should be "Concurrent constraint programming", like
- Saraswat, V. A., and Rinard M. Concurrent Constraint Programming. In Proceedings of Seventeenth ACM Symposium on Principles of Programming Languages, January 1990
- Saraswat, V. A., Rinard M. and P. Panangaden. Semantic Foundation of Concurrent Constraint Programming. In Proceedings of 18th ACM Symposium on Principles of Programming Languages, 1991

This article has the wrong title
[edit]The article is actually about concurrent logic programming, with only a small part concerned with concurrent constraint logic programming. It would make more sense to merge it with the new Concurrent logic programming article, with a subsection on concurrent constraint logic programming. Logperson (talk) 20:17, 14 May 2014 (UTC)
This article has no examples
[edit]Without examples, the article gives the impression that concurrent constraint logic programming is useless. 86.186.119.166 (talk) 15:23, 27 July 2016 (UTC)
