{{language}}Oz is a multi-paradigm language that is designed for advanced, concurrent, networked, soft real-time, and reactive applications. Oz provides the salient features of [[object-oriented programming]] including state, abstract data types, objects, classes, and inheritance. It provides the salient features of functional programming including compositional syntax, first-class procedures/functions, and lexical scoping. It provides the salient features of logic programming and constraint programming including logic variables, constraints, disjunction constructs, and programmable search mechanisms. It allows users to dynamically create any number of sequential [[threads]]. The threads are dataflow threads in the sense that a thread executing an operation will suspend until all operands needed have a well-defined value.[[#Citation|[1]]]

The [[Mozart/Oz|Mozart]] Programming System is the primary implementation of Oz. It is released with an Open source license by the Mozart Consortium. Mozart has been ported to different flavors of [[Unix]], FreeBSD, [[Linux]], [[Microsoft]] [[Windows]], and [[Mac OS X]].[[#Citation|[2]]]
