The National Research Council Committee on Past and Present Contexts
for the Use of Ada in the Department of Defense made the following
recommendations to DoD today:
1. Require Ada for DoD warfighting software;
2. Drop Ada requirement for other DoD software;
3. Invest $15M/year for Ada infrastructure - or drop
Ada requirement entirely;
4. Embed programming language decisions into a Software
Engineering Plan Review process.
The panel will provide a formal written report detailing its
recommendations and rationale to the DoD in the near future.
Stay tuned to this news brief listserve for more details....
