Summary:Abstract: "This paper reviews the design and the evolution of a concurrent programming language Guarded Horn Clauses (GHC). GHC was born from a study of parallelism in logic programming, but turned out to be a simple and flexible concurrent programming language with a number of nice properties. We give both an abstract view of GHC computation based on the notion of transactions and a concrete view, namely an operational semantics, based on reductions. Also, we discuss in detail the properties of GHC such as its atomic operations, which have much to do with the design of GHC."
