In the early 90's I was involved in the NATO APSE Project. The company that
developed the Ada Compilers was the German Company SYSTEAM AG that was
lately acquired by ALSYS. Those compilers used DIANA. The person in charge
of compiler development was Dr. Manfred Dausmann. He also wrote papers and
books regarding to the subject. If anybody knows DIANA for sure he is. I
don't know his current position nor location.

I hope this information will be useful.
