LUCID -
1. Early query language, ca. 1965, System Development Corp, Santa Monica,
CA. Sammet 1969, p.701.
2. Ashcroft & Wadge, 1981. A dataflow language
descended from ISWIM, lazy but first-order. Statements are regarded as
equations defining a network of processors and communication lines, through
which the data flows. Every data object is thought of as an infinite
stream of simple values, every function as a filter. Lucid has no data
constructors such as arrays or records. Iteration is simulated with is
current and fby (concatenation of sequences). "Lucid, the Dataflow
Programming Language", W. Wadge, Academic Press 1985.
