Abstract
Abstract : This study investigated distributed applications written in the Ada programming language, in particular, the applications that are implemented on systems dissimilar in underlying hardware architecture and operating systems that require the exchange of data and control. The approach presented in this report rejects the suggestion of modifying both the Ada runtime environment and the Ada language itself to achieve distribution of real-time applications. Distribution can be achieved in the spirit of Ada without use of Ada's tasking features, through use of well-defined standard network or backplane interfaces through other Ada features such as packages and subprograms. The Ada programming language is mandated as the single high-order language used in implementing systems currently being delivered to the Department of Defense (DoD). Many of these systems are presently under development and are distributed in nature. The Ada programming language contains an abstract feature known as a task, which could lend itself to distribution.
