As part of its Ada program, the Software Engineering Institute is
planning to build a hardware/software testbed to study the issues
regarding the use of Ada in real-time embedded systems.  This testbed
must be flexible, reconfigurable, and evolvable so that we can
experiment with and assess a number of run-time environments.  One
aspect of the project will be to implement a real-time embedded system
application that is representative of a broad spectrum of problems.  We
have already been in contact with ARTEWG, but we would like to solicit
the broader Ada community for information on previous experience with
such testbed creation and also on candidate applications.  These
applications, in addition to being representative of the entire class
of problems, should ideally have well-documented designs and test plans, be
publically available, and be implementable by a small group of software
engineers in less than a year.  Direct inputs as well as pointers to
other sources are solicited.
