PROIV
PROIV (pronounced "pro-four"), also known as 'Pro-IV', is a low code development platform owned by Zellis Holdings, a British HR services company.
PROIV was originally developed as a fourth-generation programming language (4GLs). PROIV and other 4GL are aiming to simplify and reduce efforts to create and develop computer programs compared to third-generation programming languages (3GLs) such as Cobol and Fortran.
PROIV's usual application domain is database-centric business applications.[citation needed]
PROIV programs consist of declarative/non-procedural specifications that control the overall structure of the program and database access and that have an implicit sequence of execution (which PROIV programmers refer to as the timing cycle). Procedural subroutines can be added by the programmer; these are written in a 3GL-like language, which PROIV calls "Logic".
PROIV was developed by Sushil K. Garg, working in Hawaii in 1976 on a General Automation System. In the early 1980s, it was licensed to McDonnell Information Systems (MDIS).
MDIS converted PROIV to run on their Pick-based systems, and this spin-off was known as ALL (Application Language Liberator).
PROIV was ported to several different platforms by separate teams. Garg brought these ports together as one company, Pro Computer Sciences (PCS), headquartered in Laguna Hills, California. PCS was subsequently acquired by MDIS in 1988.
During the second half of the 1980s, a PROIV team entered the 4GL Grand Prix contests in1987, 1988, and 1990 and the product finished second on each occasion.
