The first book goes deeper about concurrency and scheduling. ~300p on concurrency and ~150p on scheduling. (Alan Burns and Andy Wellings) The second book is ~100p to present the Ada itself (type model, oop etc), ~100p for concurrency, ~100p for distributed computing (PolyORB, Corba, etc) and finally ~100p for real-time and scheduling. (John W. McCormick, Frank Singhoff, Jerome Hugues) Note: It looks to me they are not the same people. Best is to buy both. They are very neat book and inspire to do everything using Ada. :)
