	Ada programming language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Ada is a structured, statically typed imperative computer programming language designed by a team led by Jean Ichbiah of CII Honeywell Bull during 1977–1983.
		Requests for proposals for a new programming language were issued and four contractors were hired to develop their proposals under the names of Red (Intermetrics led by Benjamin Brosgol), Green (CII Honeywell Bull, led by Jean Ichbiah), Blue (SofTech, led by John Goodenough), and Yellow (SRI International, led by Jay Spitzen).
		This proposal was influenced by the programming language LIS that Ichbiah and his group had developed in the 1970s.

	ICC What's Ada?
		Ada is a programming language of special value in the development of large programs which must work reliably.
		Ada 9X includes full OOP facilities giving the flexibility of programming by extension which enables programs to be extended and maintained at lower cost.
		Program units may be subprograms (which define executable algorithms), packages (which define collections of entities), task units (which define concurrent computations), protected units (which define operations for the coordinated sharing of data between tasks), or generic units (which define parameterized forms of packages and subprograms).

	Dod Directive 3405.1, Programming Language
		The Ada programming language shall be the single, common, computer programming language for Defense computer resources used in intelligence systems, for the command and control of military forces, or as an integral part of a weapon system.
		Programming languages other than Ada that were authorized and being used in full-scale development may continue to be used through deployment and for software maintenance, but not for major software upgrades.
		Ada shall be used for all other applications, except when the use of another approved higher order language is more cost-effective over the application's life-cycle, in keeping with the long-range goal of establishing Ada as the primary DoD higher order language (HOL).

	Ada Programming - Wikibooks, collection of open-content textbooks
		Ada is a programming language named after Augusta Ada King, Countess of Lovelace, which is suitable for all development needs.
		Ada puts unique emphasis on, and provides strong support for, good software engineering practices that scale well to very large software systems (millions of lines of code, and very large development teams).
		Portability: the language definition allows compilers to differ only in a few controlled ways, and otherwise defines the semantics of programs very precisely; as a result, Ada source text is very portable across compilers and across target hardware platforms.

	Savitch/Petersen CS1 Ada Preface
		Programming without parameters invariably violates the generally accepted principles of software engineering and forces students to practice techniques that must later be unlearned.
		Designed for Interactive Programming All the programs are designed for use in an interactive environment because it fits in nicely with the modern approach to the development of programs.
		The Ada code in all of the complete programs in the text have been copied directly from text files that have been compiled and run using several different Ada compilers running under several different operating systems for PC's to large mainframes.

	Some information on the Ada programming language
		Ada is an internationally standardized, general-purpose programming language used in a wide variety of applications -- from missile control to payroll processing to air traffic control.
		Ada contains features commonly found in other programming languages and provides additional support for modern programming practices, for controlling special purpose hardware to meet real-time deadlines, and for the creation and enhancement of large and complex programs by groups of programmers over long periods of time.
		Ada organizes code into self-contained units that can be planned, written, compiled, and tested separately; this feature allows programs to be written in portions by teams working in parallel before being integrated into the final product.

	File Structures With Ada (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-27)
		A programming language, such as Pascal, with less support for file organizations, would allow students to gain greater computer science knowledge concerning the implementation of data structures on external files.
		The Ada programming language can be used in a more practical pedagogical way by allowing students to gain more in-depth file implementation experience as they analyze data structures for efficiency and write their own access routines.
		The central theme of the chapter is the reduction in the number of I/O operations required for a program that accesses a blocked file and the reduction of the time that the CPU waits for an I/O operation to be completed when using a buffered file.

		Ada was designed, from the grounds up, to be a reliable programming language.
		Ada allows for multiple declarations of procedures and functions with a different set of parameters and likewise different execution steps can be executed as per which declaration is used when calling the given procedure or function.
		Ada comes with its own tokenization package which means it's trivial to do such task as string parsing based on a given set of valid tokens.
