Hillsboro, Ore., Jan.  18, 1989 --  BiiN(tm),  the  worldwide  supplier  of
mission-critical  computing  systems, announced today the validation of its
Ada compiler under ACVC Version 1.10.

ACVC Version 1.10 represents  a  significant  advance  in  the  testing  of
system-dependent  features  required  for system-level programming, most of
which are specified in Chapter 13 of the  Ada  Language  Reference  Manual.
BiiN's Ada compiler passed all the required tests, making BiiN the first to 
validate under ACVC 1.10 in the continental U.S.  

BiiN's enhanced compiler technology enabled  the  validation  tests  to  be
compiled  and  run in an unusually short time: only 2 hours, 45 minutes, or
less than one fifth of the average validation time reported by the AVF.  

In  addition  to  providing  true  multi-tasking   in   a   multi-processor
environment,   BiiN's   compiler  includes  state-of-the-art,  Ada-specific
optimizations (e.g., redundant  constraint  elimination  and  compile  time
elaboration)  that  contribute  to  fast  execution  of the generated code.
Compiling at a rate of  more  than  4,000  lines  per  minute,  BiiN's  Ada
compiler is one of the fastest available.  

The BiiN Ada compiler runs on  the  BiiN  20  and  BiiN  60,  two  recently
announced  systems  designed  for  mission-critical computing applications.
The BiiN Operating System (BiiN/OS(tm)), its tools and utilities,  and  the
BiiN Ada compiler consist of approximately two million lines of Ada code.  

Based  in  Hillsboro,   Oregon,   BiiN   is   a   worldwide   supplier   of
mission-critical computing systems.
