    LIMAP - LISP MATRIX PROCESSOR

    ( NASA Langley Research Center )

    LIMAP is a high level language that provides the user with a set of
    COMMON LISP procedures that define and manipulate a vector/matrix-based
    knowledge representation. The user may represent relations among objects using
    Boolean or symbolic matrices/vectors. These matrices/vectors are abstract data
    types that can represent data stored in arrays.

    LIMAP is designed to represent semantic nets, an important class of
    representations based on finite and enumerable domains. LIMAP differs from other
    net-based representation systems in its emphasis on the efficient storage of
    large sparse nets, and on the provision of a second-order query capability
    oriented toward queries involving paths.

    LIMAP is written in COMMON LISP and should be operational on any system
    capable of supporting a COMMON LISP environment. LIMAP has been successfully
    tested under Allegro Common LISP for the PC v2.0, Allegro Common LISP for SGI,
    and Symbolics Common LISP. The standard distribution medium for LIMAP is one 3.5
    inch 1.44Mb MS-DOS format diskette. Alternate distribution media are available
    upon request. An electronic copy of the documentation in Microsoft Word format
    is included on the distribution medium. LIMAP was released to COSMIC in 1997.
