The two new "books" are a companion pair dealing with the use of Ada 95 in developing Information Systems. Authored by Dr. Ben Brosgol (author of Annex F "Information Systems" of the Ada 95 Reference Manual) and Dr. Bard Crawford (author of earlier HOT_Ada modules), these computer-based training products run on Windows platforms (95 or NT). Book 5 contains a set of illustrated lessons on decimal types, picture strings, character and string handling, and interfacing with legacy code written in COBOL and C. Book 6 is built around a non-trivial Payroll System case study, which further illustrates the issues covered in Book 5 and also illustrates the use of Aonix's ObjectAda (tm) for Windows system, especially its GUI Builder. Implementation in Ada is preceeded by language-independent object oriented analysis and object oriented design steps. The graphic notation in these two books has been updated (compared to earlier HOT_Ada modules) to be consistent with the Unified Modeling Language (UML). The price is $29 for either book; $39 for the 2-book set. ($15 and $20 for full-time students) Site licenses are also available.
