You might look in the proceedings of the conference on practical applications
of Prolog (April 1992).  There are lots of concrete examples there; one of the
more general papers is Peter Reintjes's "Elegant Technologies".  I suggest you
try to get a copy of the proceedings; if you can't get it, I have
a copy of Peter's paper (send me a note, specifying whether you want
it in LaTeX, DVI, or PostScript).
