I think it would be good for Ada to have
such a book online. Many young people
should presumably appreciate it and
make them more curious about Ada.
The question is what a book should contain?

Now when MaRTE OS
http://marte.unican.es/
and ORK
http://www.openravenscar.org/
is available with the PC (i386) as a
target, they could be good resources to use
in combination with an online book
on Real Time Systems Ada programming.
What do you think?

Look at similar books that discuss realtime programming in other languages.
That might suggest an outline for an Ada book.

I thought MaRTE OS was available already. It might make a good platform for
a RT programming book - I didn't know that it needed anything else besides a
bare PC, a Linux PC and an Ethernet connection. Wouldn't that be enough for
a text on RT programming?

There are on-line texts about Ada available through:
http://www.adapower.com/ under "Learn Ada" (Probably ought to appear under
"Books" as well...) However, none of them specifically deal with real time &
embedded systems. You can find some books that talk about Ada & real time,
but I don't think there are any currently on-line. Ada ought to be more used
in that market, but its pretty much ignored there, so you aren't likely to
see much appearing any time soon on that subject.

Books by Burns and Wellings come pretty close.


Check out;

               Concurrency in Ada

               Programming Systems and Languages

both of which are excellent books.

Re: Real Time Systems with Ada

[Marin David Condic]

There's probably a number of books that address realtime & embedded
programming and how Ada relates to that. There might be a few in the
bibliography at Adapower. I'm just not aware of any that are on-line. It
would be really nice of authors to put their stuff on-line once it has
exhausted whatever commercial potential it had (or gain some additional
commercial potential by including ads in their text? :-) Technical books
don't generally make a lot of money for the authors and once the publisher
is no longer interested it would be nice to see them on-line for the benefit
of the needy and the cheap. :-)
