Areas covered included scheduling mechanisms, distributed systems, and fault tolerance. Ada is today being used successfully in many real time applications, but since a revision of Ada is expected to start in 1989, now is the time to consider what changes might make it even more usable. The purpose of the 3rd Workshop is to develop specific proposals that will make the revised version of Ada more suitable for real time and distributed applications. The workshop will be held near Pittsburgh. Attendance will be limited to 35 participants selected on the basis of short position papers. Prospective attendees should submit a 3-10 page position paper on topics such as: - new or modified Ada language capabilities for real time and distributed applications, including proposals for standard packages; - real time application requirements that the Ada language does not meet well, including the use of Ada for distributed processing; - why changes are not needed to satisfy certain requirements frequently mentioned by real time application developers or by developers of distributed systems. All submitted papers should be suitable for publication in the Proceedings and should arrive at the address listed below not later than 1 February 1989. A small number of participants will be requested to prepare presentations outlining proposals for discussion within working groups. Following the workshop, it is expected that selected position papers will be published as part of the workshop Proceedings in a special edition of SIGAda Ada Letters.
