One direction to look at is the distribution annex (RM annex E) which is
fully supported by GNAT. You can use this in conjunction with GLADE, an
implementation of distribution support which uses sockets, and handles
heterogenous cross-platform communication between Ada partions running
on separate machines. For more information on GNAT and GLADE send email
to sales@gnat.com.
