Ada 2012 is the latest version of the international standard for the programming language Ada. It is designated ISO/IEC 8652:2012 (E) and is a new edition replacing the 2005 version. The primary goals for the new version were to further enhance its capabilities particularly in those areas where its reliability and predictability are of great value. Many important new features have been included such as those defining dynamic contracts and for handling multiprocessors and are integrated within the existing language framework in an elegant and coherent manner. The Ada 2012 Rationale describes not only the changes from Ada 2005 but also the reason for the changes. It starts with an introduction providing a general overview and this is followed by seven chapters focusing on contracts and aspects; extended expressions; structure and visibility; tasking and real time; iterators and pools; predefined library and containers. The book concludes with an epilogue largely concerned with compatibility issues.

The Ada 2012 Reference Manual is an enhanced version of the text of International Standard ISO/IEC 8652/2012(E) for the programming language Ada. The Ada 2012 Reference Manual combines all of the previous corrections of Technical Corrigendum 1 and Amendment 1 with changes and additions that improve the capabilities of the language and the reliability of programs written in the language. The Ada 2012 Reference Manual will replace the former versions as an indispensable working companion for anybody using Ada professionally or learning and studying the language systematically.

This latest edition of 'Programming in Ada' covers the full details of the core language Ada 2012 as updated by the 2016 ISO Corrigendum and introduces the key new features planned for Ada 2022. It is sure to become the go-to resource for those wishing to learn the language or to program in it.

The latest edition of the definitive guide to the Ada language covers the full details of the core language Ada 2012 as updated by the 2016 ISO Corrigendum and introduces the key new features in Ada 2022. The book is in four parts. It begins by introducing the fundamental concepts for newcomers, before moving onto algorithmic aspects and then structural features such as OOP and multitasking. The fourth part gives details of the standard library and interaction with the external environment. Six complete executable programs illustrate the core features of the language in action. The book concludes with an appendix focussing on the new features in Ada 2022. These new features aid program proof and the efficient use of multicore architectures.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 23rd Ada-Europe International Conference on Reliable Software Technologies, Ada-Europe 2018, held in Lisbon, Portugal, in June 2018. The 10 papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 27 submissions. They were organized in topical sections named: safety and security; Ada 202X; handling implicit overhead; real-time scheduling; and new application domains.

This volume presents selected papers from prominent researchers participating in the 11th International Conference on Future Information Technology and the 10th International Conference on Multimedia and Ubiquitous Engineering, Beijing, China, April 20-22, 2016. These large international conferences provided an opportunity for academic and industry professionals to discuss recent progress in the fields of multimedia technology and ubiquitous engineering including new models and systems and novel applications associated with the utilization and acceptance of ubiquitous computing devices and systems. The contributions contained in this book also provide more information about digital and multimedia convergence, intelligent applications, embedded systems, mobile and wireless communications, bio-inspired computing, grid and cloud computing, the semantic web, user experience and HCI, security and trust computing. This book describes the state of the art in multimedia and ubiquitous engineering, and future IT models and their applications.

Ada 95 is the first fully object-oriented programming language to be internationally standardized. John Barnes was a key member of the language's design team, and this is a new edition of his definitive text and reference for the Ada 95 language.
