A Survey of Three Applications of Parallelism in AI

Once the BEMAS [13] system was completed and recorded in Common Lisp, research efforts were channeled toward three primary areas. This report will present a briefly review of some research in these areas, which are: parallelizing truth maintenance systems, parallelizing production systems, and parallel search. The area of parallel search has been studied by many over the past years and we will only present current research that has been accomplished. This review represents the beginning research into the development of a parallel inference model
