  My university, York University in Toronto, Canada, is considering the use
  of Ada for a large database management application, specifically a student
  information system.
   
  I would greatly appreciate any descriptions (even if brief) of large
  software development projects of "mission critical" systems, which have
  used Ada.  I am interested in why Ada was chosen for the project and
  whether the programmming language and related design methodolgies proven
  successful.  For this purpose, I am interested in all types of
  applications, whether or not they have been undertaken in a university
  environment.
   
  Please send me any such descriptions by email (allan.cobb@ccs.yorku.ca);
  I shall be happy to post a summary.
