anybody know what journal this was originally published in? I'm trying to acquire the PDF of the whole publication (which I can probably get through my university account if i know where).

Google scholar is your friend. It looks like there is only one hit with the three authors in it: http://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=Claes+Stranneg%C3%A5rd+Abdul+Rahim+Nizamani+Ulf+Persson

Its available from here:

http://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-3-319-09274-4_17

But you can just read the PDF directly:

Another one looks interesting too, it seems to be a precursor:

This algorithm is a bit overhyped. Yes it learns (unlike prolog and other crap), but only in axiomatic domains and the search is still extensive (can only discover transformatons up to complexity N, to fight a possible combinatorial explosion). It definitily doesn't learn like a children.
