The Association for Logic Programming (ALP) was founded in 1986. Its mission is "to contribute to the development of Logic Programming, relate it to other formal and also to humanistic sciences, and to promote its uses in academia and industry all over the world". It manages the International Conference on Logic Programming,[1] oversees the journal Theory and Practice of Logic Programming (TPLP),[2] and publishes an electronic newsletter.[3]

The activities of the Association are directed by an Executive Committee and President, elected by ALP members. The current president is Thomas Eiter.[4] Here is a list of all presidents:[5]

In 1997, the ALP bestowed to fifteen recognized researchers in logic programming the title Founders of Logic Programming to recognize them as pioneers in the field.[6]
