Using the General Intensional Programming System (GIPSY) for Evaluation of Higher-Order Intensional Logic (HOIL)

The General Intensional Programming System (GIPSY) has been built around the Lucid family of intensional programming languages that rely on the Higher-Order Intensional Logic (HOIL) to provide context-oriented multidimensional reasoning of intensional expressions. HOIL combines functional programming with various intensional logics to allow explicit context expressions to be evaluated as first-class values that can be passed as parameters to functions and return as results with an appropriate set of operators defined on contexts. GIPSY's frameworks are implemented in Java as a collection of replaceable components for the compilers of various Lucid dialects and the demand-driven eductive evaluation engine that can run distributively.
