  The just arrived March 2000 "ACM Computing Surveys" has a 37 page
article "The Programming Languages and Systems for Prototyping
Concurrent Applications".  There are 4 mentions of Ada.  Three are to
the effect Ada was used in such and such a system.  The most recent
citation is 1991.  The fourth says "Languages based on the message
passing model include occam, Ada, SR, and many others.  As these
languages with their variations of message passing have been studied
extensively in the literature, we refer to Bal et al [1989] for an
overview, and do not discuss them in detail here."  #.#
