Ada-Europe '93

This volume contains the proceedings of the twelfth
Ada-Europe conference,   held in France in 1993. The French
name „Ada sans fronti res“ (the only      French words in the
book) symbolizes the unlimitedness and novelty of Ada,   as
well as Europe-wide interest.
Many papers relate to Ada-9X, the new   standard that the Ada
coimmunity is close to achieving after                        worldwide
consultation and debate about requirements, specification,
anddetailed definition. Their focus is on management,
real-time, and compiler   validation.
Part of the conference was on object orientation,                     together
with various issues relating to the general structure of               the
language, including exceptions to a certain use of
genericity and   heterogeneous data, efficiency, formal
requirements and CASEs, and               comparison with a competitor
language.
A third part relates to               real-time, past with performance
measurement, present with certification andapplications,
and future with the ExTRA project and 9X.
