List-Id: A Sampling of Ada-Oriented Books for Undergraduate Computer Science May 1991 Michael B. Feldman Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science The George Washington University Washington, DC 20052 202-994-5253 mfeldman@seas.gwu.edu This is not an exhaustive list, merely a selected list of books I believe can be successfully used in undergraduate computer science courses. The first six books use Ada as their language of discourse but are "subject-oriented": introductory programming, data structures, file structures, compilers. The others are "Ada books", focusing on the language per se and organized around Ada's structures, not curricular material. Ben-Ari, M. Principles of Parallel and Distributed Programming.
