I recently read an article in EE Times concerning the Automobile Industry
looking for an alternative to using assembly language in their on-board
firmware.  They are getting so much on-board stuff these days that they
are starting to deal with a huge amount of incompletely tested and
validated software.  They mentioned some European efforts toward a
'standard' kernel but didn't mention much about it.

I see a lot about Ada in the aircraft avionics world but I haven't seen
much on cars/trucks.  Any suggested reading material, forums, etc?
