From the bts list of Prologs:

NAME:           Basser Prolog

SRC/MACHINE/OS: C/Unix (V7, 4.?BSD & others) also VMS
AVAILABILITY:   Educational license, source or binary
COST:           A$300 or US$300 or negotiable, VMS version extra
STATUS:         running, some development & support

                Sydney, N.S.W.  2006
                Australia
NOTES:
    Yet another prolog syntax. Most of the code is clean and readable.
    Generally similar to DEC-10 prolog.  Basser Prolog has sufficient
    "features" to make it a reasonable programming environment and a
    useful tool.
DATED:          May 1984

As far as I know Andrew is still at S.U.  The address is a bit out of
