QUINTUS Quintus Computer Systems, a new company in Palo Alto, is actively developing high-performance Prolog systems and applications. Quintus was organized in 1983 and has received a large infusion of venture capital that will permit expansion of its technical development effort. The Quintus technical team includes David Warren, Lawrence Byrd and William Kornfeld. Their previous work includes the original Edinburgh DEC-10/20 Prolog compiler and substantial research contributions to the logic programming field. The chairman of Quintus is Cuthbert Hurd, whose distinguished scientific and business career includes responsibility for the introduction of IBM's first general-purpose computer. Quintus Prolog is designed for efficiency, portability, and ease-of-use. Quintus Prolog will run initially on the VAX and MC68000-based systems with other processors to follow. Quintus Prolog is designed for serious software development. Quintus is looking for outstanding individuals with experience in Prolog implementation and applications, database technology and interactive environments. Quintus is also looking for software engineers with C and Unix experience. We offer an exciting working environment in a growing company, and look forward to hearing from you.
