Current thinking on Parlog is that it is best thought of as a sister logic
programming language to Prolog rather than as a "parallel version of Prolog".
The inherent concurrency with the power of the logic variable make Parlog
a very versatile language, even when used on a sequential machine. But its
versatility is not necessarily in those areas where Prolog is most useful.
Thinking of it as "parallel Prolog" emphasises its limitations compared with 
Prolog, without drawing attention to its power elsewhere.
