Late bookings are still being taken at http://www.AdaUK.org.uk for this low cost conference and exhibition, which has already attracted over 110 attendees. The conference features 2 streams of 22 sessions, including several sessions designed to give delegates the opportunity to play an active role in the conference. For example, Silver Software will be facilitating a session exploring the trials and tribulations of recruiting and retaining Ada software engineers while ARTiSAN, Kennedy Carter and others will be examining the potential for a standardised Ada-UML Profile. Two tutorials on "Test-First Design" (Kevlin Henney, Curbralan) and "Principles of High Availability Embedded Systems Design" (David Kalinsky, OSE) provide a training element to the event, while technical presentations by Praxis, ADI, IPL, ACT Europe, Programming Research and I-Logix help to make this a conference with significant technical content. The exhibition has attracted key players in the Ada and embedded systems markets including Wind River, Vsystems, Telelogic, Silver Software, Programming Research, Praxis, PolySpace, OSE, Objektum, LDRA, Kennedy Carter, John Robinson & Associates, IPL, I-Logix, Headway Software, Green Hills Software, First Matrix, ARTiSAN and Aonix. At the exhibition a number of product vendors will announce and demonstrate new products and/or significant product upgrades, including IPL (Testing) and Telelogic (UML). A number of product announcements will be of particular interest to Ada users. Ada-related product announcements will be made by Rational Software, Headway Software, PolySpace Technologies, First Matrix and OSE. Both Headway Software and Polyspace Technologies are new to the Ada market, challenging the widespread misconception that the Ada market has stagnated. The mix of exhibitors, sponsors, speakers and delegates attracted to this event represent a wide spread of interests across the embedded systems industry.
