TRI-ADA '97:  THE RIGHT CHOICE IN RELIABLE SOFTWARE
Topic: Ada

Tri-Ada is the largest US and international conference on the Ada
computer programming language.  It includes tutorials and presentations
on Ada 95 and software engineering and an exhibition showcasing the
latest in Ada - related products.  

Who should attend?  Software engineers, scientists, technical managers,
students and researchers - those already using Ada and those interested
in doing so - come to Tri-Ada to share their questions, insights and
experiences.  Tri-Ada is a meeting place for government, academic and
industrial professionals.  

Location:  Adam's Mark Hotel. St. Louis, MO, 9 - 13 Nov. 1997.

Sponsored by:  the Association for Computing Machinery 's (ACM) Special
Interest Group Ada (SIGADA)

TRI-ADA '97 PUBLIC FORUM:  5:30pm-7pm, Wed., Nov. 12
Topic:  Ada

The Tri-Ada "Public Forum" was instantiated at Tri-Ada'96 as a
standing-room-only opportunity for interaction between members of the
Ada community and leaders of SIGAda, the Ada vendors' Ada Resources
Association, and the Ada Joint Program Office.  The Tri-Ada'97 Public
Forum is your chance to meet and dialog with this year's all-new
leaders (and some of the old guard?).  Our motto is "Come with your
questions, concerns, and ideas; tell us what you think we should be
doing with your membership fees and tax dollars -- your leaders are
listening!"

COE DOCUMENTS ON-LINE SEARCHABLE DATABASE IS FULLY OPERATIONAL 
Topic: DII, COE

The Computer Systems Engineering Information Clearinghouse (CSEIC) has 
completed the process of converting numerous Common Operating Environment 
(COE) documents to HTML and adding a search capability whereby the user 
can perform a keyword search on one or all documents.  This will serve as 
a valuable reference for anyone interested in learning more about the COE.

The database can be found on the CSEIC Web site at:

http://sw-eng.falls-church.va.us/coe/docs

In addition to the HTML versions of the COE documents, links to .doc and 
.pdf versions have also been included.
