Editorial Review:

The concept of concurrency presents a real difficulty to many programmers. In this book Dr Burns introduces the topic and shows how the Ada programming language, which had as a main design specification that it should contain the features necessary for concurrent programming, deals with it. The need to produce software that models inherent parallelism is important in many applications, including embedded real time systems, process control and general purpose multi-processor system software. Although for many other applications of Ada, knowledge of the Tasking Model is not necessary the full power of the language can only really be obtained if this model is understood.

Editorial Review:

This book is an accessible introduction to the theory and practice of concurrent programming and addresses problems of the sort where several simultaneous activities compete for limited resources. Exposition is supported by realistic examples. Techniques developed include locks, semaphores, monitors, and rendez-vous. Three languages especially adapted to concurrent programming--Portal, Modula-2, Ada--are used throughout, and their relative advantages and disadvantages discussed. Contains a program for a substantial problem--the control of a digital clock and chronometer is developed in full detail in each of the three languages. Includes numerous examples.

Editorial Review:

This consolidated version of the Ada Reference Manual enhances the International Standard ISO/IEC 8652:1995(E) for the programming language Ada by incorporating the Technical Corrigendum 1 approved by ISO in February 2001.The Technical Corrigendum 1 lists the individual changes that need to be made to the text of ISO/IEC 8652:1995(E) to correct errors, omissions or inconsistencies.The enhanced Ada Reference Manual presents and updates the International Standard for Ada in a user-friendly way and thus will replace the former version as an indispensible working companion for anybody using Ada professionally or learning and studying the language systematically.

This book was reasonable for CS2 courses, although the constant errors, whether typographic or semantic, caused many problems. There were too few examples, and not enough basic description. Would be good if you were familiar with other languages. Beginners will struggle.
