------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ada-Belgium is a non-profit volunteer organization whose purpose is to
promote the use in Belgium of the Ada programming language, the first
ISO standardized object-oriented language.
We are pleased to remind you that on Friday, November 28, 1997,
Ada-Belgium organizes its 7th Annual Seminar at the premises of Trasys
in Brussels.
Ada-Belgium'97 offers the software professional in or near Belgium an
ideal opportunity to experience some of the excitement felt at the very
interesting Tri-Ada'97 conference organized by ACM SIGAda in St. Louis
last week, and to hear presentations from an international group of
speakers on the important topic of Distribution and Interoperability.
If you couldn't attend Tri-Ada'97, you should attend Ada-Belgium'97.
Highlights
----------
* Theme of Ada-Belgium'97 is "Developing Distributed Applications".
The seminar features a tutorial, technical and project
presentations, plus short product presentations.
* Several approaches to develop distributed applications will be
presented (CORBA, DCE, Ada Distributed Systems Annex, etc.) as
well as practical experiences and available products, with special
emphasis on the role of Ada 95.
* Free Ada-related material will be distributed, a.o. printed copies
of the CORBA IDL to Ada 95 mapping document, the new Walnut Creek
double CD-ROM (the November 1997 release is a special edition for
Tri-Ada'97 and Ada-Belgium'97), and the Discovering Ada CD-ROM (a
multimedia CD-ROM of Ada training).
Updated extracts from the Call for Participation are appended below:
* full programme,
* info on free Ada CD-ROMs and documentation to be handed out,
* location of the seminar,
* participation fee,
* seminar secretariat.
Registration forms are also appended.
More information is available at the Ada-Belgium'97 Home Page via URL
http://www.cs.kuleuven.ac.be/~dirk/ada-belgium/events/local.html
(abstracts of the talks, short biography of the speakers, information
on their company or organization).
The annual Ada-Belgium Seminar is an event not to be missed!
Do not delay to register!
(And be sure to request your FREE copies of the Ada CD-ROMs.)
Looking forward to meet many of you in Brussels.
