Barnes' book "Programming in Ada" to be an excellent book for starters. If you're interested in parallel programming look for "Parallel Programming in ANSI Standard Ada", G.W. Cherry (a very good book with interesting examples). As for PD software, I signed up to an Ada Software Repository at SIMTEL20.ARPA only a couple days ago. I'm thrilled with what I see so far, I haven't had time to get stuff from them. Some of the software they have is AI s/w, dev tools, debuggers, editors, educational stuff, graphic kernel stuff, math, etc etc --- the list is quite long. Send mail to RCONN (rick conn) at simtel20.arpa and ask to join the Ada Software Repository. In the meantime, if you find any more of these repositories, let me know (I'm looking for more). Also, I've heard of a PD Ada compiler which the DoD funded but I don't know where to find it, if its available yet. ... George Popadich, student
