Books on POP-11

BARRETT, R., RAMSAY, A. AND SLOMAN, A. (1985) POP-11: A practical language for Artificial Intelligence, Ellis Horwood and Wiley. (QE 1690 Pop). The first book ever written on POP-11. It is especially useful on the more advanced features of the language, but is not as systematic as Laventhol.

BURTON, M and SHADBOLT, N. (1987) POP-11 programming for Artificial Intelligence, Addison-Wesley. (QE 1690 Pop). More of an introductory textbook in style, concerned to teach AI rather than Pop-11. But some absolute beginners find it helpful.

COGNITIVE APPLICATIONS (1987) AlphaPop POP-11 Language Guide and Reference Manual, Cognitive Applications Ltd. A very clear textbook and separate guide to the main functions originally provided with the AlphaPop version of POP-11 for Macs.

GAZDAR, G. and MELLISH, C. (1989) Natural Language Processing in POP-11: an Introduction to Computational Linguistics. Addison-Wesley. (P 98 Gaz). A textbook with extensive natural language processing examples.

LAVENTHOL, J. (1987) Programming in POP-11, Blackwell. (QZ 1345 Pop). A textbook covering POP-11 from scratch, with good suggestions regarding programming style. Some parts may be difficult for beginners.

SHARPLES, M. et al. (1989) Computers and Thought, MIT Press. (QZ 1250 Com) An introductory textbook on AI and cognitive science, based largely on POP-11. Also available at

RAMSAY, A. and BARRETT, R.(1987) Artificial Intelligence in practice: examples in POP-11 Ellis Horwood and John Wiley, 1987. This is a more advanced book on AI and Pop-11, and is probably only of interest once you already know Pop-11 pretty well, and are quite skilled in it.

THORNTON, C. and DU BOULAY, B. (1992) Artificial Intelligence Through Search, Intellect. (QZ 1250 Tho). A textbook introduction basic AI through POP11 and through Prolog programs. Also available at http://www.informatics.sussex.ac.uk/local/books/ai-through-search/index.html
