concurrentKanren: miniKanren for parallel execution

Programming Languages 2025-10-07 v1

Abstract

Concurrent logic programming predates miniKanren, but concurrent implementations of miniKanren have remained largely unexplored. In this work we present a parallel implementation of miniKanren in Go, demonstrating its feasibility and potential for performance improvements. Our approach leverages implicit parallelism allowing legacy programs to benefit from parallel execution. We discuss implementation strategies and evaluate the impact of parallelism, laying groundwork for future language-agnostic models.
