Ada�s SUPPORT FOR RELIABILITY

In the March/April issue of Journal of Object-Oriented 
Programming, Richard Riehle discusses the issue of 
reliability as an important factor in determining what 
programming language to use. Riehle asks whether the object-
oriented programming language (OOPL) used makes a 
difference. Riehle looks at the new 1995 Ada standard to see 
how OOP either reduces or increases support for the 
reliability goal. 

Riehle also includes an Ada industry update of Ada 95 
validated compilers, Ada in the embedded systems 
marketplace, new Ada consulting and training organizations 
and Ada tool vendors.
