Introduction  The term data parallelism is generally used to refer to a parallel semantics for (definite) iteration in a programming language such that all iterations are performed simultaneously, synchronizing before any event that directly or indirectly involves communication among iterations. It is often also allowed that the results of the iterations be combined by reduction with an associative operator. In this context a  definite iteration as an iteration where the number of repetitions is known before the iteration is initiated. Data parallelism has been exploited in many languages, including Fortran-90 [33], C* [42], Data Parallel C [20], *LISP [41], etc. Recently, much progress has been reported in the application of concepts from data-parallelism to logic programming, both from the theoretical and practical points of view, including the design of programming constructs and the development of many implementation techniques [43, 37, 5, 8
