For the language created by Google Inc., see Go (programming language).

Go! is a concurrent programming language, first publicly documented by Keith Clark and Francis McCabe in 2003 [1]. It is oriented to the needs of programming secure, production quality, agent based applications. It is multi-threaded, strongly typed and higher order (in the functional programming sense). It has relation, function and action procedure definitions. Threads execute action procedures, calling functions and querying relations as need be. Threads in different agents communicate and coordinate using asynchronous messages. Threads within the same agent can also use shared dynamic relations acting as memory stores.

Its nature as a a multi-paradigm programming language, integrating logic, functional, object oriented and imperative programming styles, is particularly applied to ontology-based modeling, as exploited for the Semantic Web in allowing a type system where OWL classes can be represented in the type system [2].

Since the launch of Google's programming language Go, Go! has become the subject of a naming controversy that is still to be resolved [3].
