I owned both of these books (Programming in Ada 2005 by John Barnes
and Concurrent and Real-Time Programming in Ada by Alan Burns and Andy
Wellings). Of course, I have not read every thing but I did read every
thing about Ada 2005 specially in the area of OOP and concurrency
combination. I am in the process of reading them the second time and
test them out with real codes. I am thinking of writing concurrency
utilities (components) as suggested by Alan Burns. I would suggest
that you look at these books.
