Leif, Ph.D. Chair San Diego ACM SigAda TO: San Diego ACM SigAda Members and Other Interested Parties Reminder ANNOUNCEMENT: SAN DIEGO ACM SIGAda OCTOBER MEETING NOTE NEW MEETING LOCATION! Today's Date: 28 October 1997 SPEAKER: John M. Pantone Vice President of Objectech Corp SUBJECT: "Ada and Object Technology; How do they relate and where are they going?" Meeting Date: Wednesday, 29 October 1997 TIME: 6:30 PM Pizza ($5.00) and a chance to network and meet the experts. Lecture starts promptly at 7:00 PM DURATION: About 45 Minutes PLACE: Aonix, was Thomson (Note new address below) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ABSTRACT: The recent standardization of Ada including many OOP features has raised many questions both in the traditional Ada community as well as the OOP community. Unfortunately these questions have, all too often, simply been more fuel for the "Language Wars" which seem to rage whenever a new language is introduced, or an older one is enhanced. Ada does, indeed, provide many new, useful constructs which will aid in its usage within the OOP paradigm; and, as would be expected, continues to provide features which are not part of OOP at all. OOP itself is continuing to evolve; new notation standards, improved tools, better understanding of the role of Analysis, Design and Implementation -all have contributed to a huge growth in the application of OOP techniques. It is reasonable, then, in light of OOP's and Ada's overlapping targets to ask where is this going? What forms of OOP and/or Ada will we be seeing soon? And what will be the form of OOP/Ada computing in the future? Keywords: Object Oriented Programming (Paradigm) OOP Ada, Ada 95, Ada 83 Analysis Design Implementation Object Notation Object Modeling Object Oriented Analysis & Design (OOAD) Speaker Brief Biography: John M.
