Esterel has an option to generate either hardware or software 
implementation. It might make sense to make software implementation in 
Ada so that one can easily attach Ada handlers.

Esterel has some "parallel" features, but since Esterel targets FSMs, 
parallel execution is precisely determined. When an execution forks, 
every new thread progress with exactly the same speed as the others, 
something that's unthinkable for Ada threads.
