I am trying to find leads to work on "Declarative", "Relational", or, most
often, "Constraint-Based" programming languages.  Most expert systems
languages cover boolean constraints, spreadsheet programs cover numeric
arrays with arithmetic constraints; I would like to find the work that's
been done with general-purpose-computing constraint or declaration languages.

I have found a bit of interesting work in the UIMS (user-interface management)
world (that's where we are too), but very slim pickings so far out in the
broader programming-language research journals. Any recent citations I could
work back from would be most appreciated.
