I believe you are 100% correct. However, on the trainer for the ISS we
are using Ada, about 1.5M lines worth and we are using tasking and a lot
of it. We are using rate monotonic sheduling for our real-time hard
deadline simulations. Ada tasking works great and this thing is
integrating a whole lot better that if we were using an old cyclic exec.
