The Ada Connection is the union of two Ada events that have both been very successful in their own right. The Ada-Europe series of conferences has become established as an international forum for providers, practitioners and researchers in all aspects of reliable software technologies. The Ada Conference UK has been running in its current form since 2006 as a series of biennial one-day events, to highlight the increased relevance of Ada in safety- and security-critical systems. By combining these events, the Ada Connection will provide a unique opportunity for interaction and collaboration between academics and industrial practitioners. The 20-page Advance Program (AP) brochure with full information is available on the conference web site. The AP contains the list of accepted papers and industrial presentations, as well as detailed descriptions of all tutorials, keynote presentations, and panel sessions. In the menu on the home page first select "Programme", and then the AP download link. Also check the conference web site for registration, accommodation and travel information.
