About Xsb
Xsb was created in the early 1990s as a research project at Stony Brook University. It evolved from the need to handle recursive queries efficiently and aimed to enhance Prolog with tabling capabilities, addressing limitations in traditional logic programming for complex data processing tasks.
Xsb's strengths include efficient query processing through tabling, support for complex reasoning, and robust performance in deductive databases. Its weaknesses involve a steeper learning curve compared to simpler logic programming languages and potential scalability issues with very large datasets. Competitors include SWI-Prolog, YAP, and other logic programming systems like Datalog.
