    AdaCore Announces Successful Completion of Project Hi-Lite

    Posted by AdaCore, Altran
    AdaCore and its research partners today announced the successful completion of Project Hi-Lite, a three-year, €3.9 million effort aimed at popularizing formal methods in the development of high integrity software by combining formal verification and testing. Hi-Lite took advantage of Airbus’ decade-long experience using formal verification methods to create high integrity systems, and leveraged the powerful industrial tools already developed by the project partners. The work was sponsored by the French Government and the General Council of the Département of Essonne and was conducted by a partnership comprising AdaCore, Altran, Astrium Space Transportation, CEA List, INRIA Toccata and Thales Communications. Hi-Lite’s main goal was to make formal verification faster and easier to use across large, multi-language projects that need to meet safety certification criteria, and the project has successfully achieved this objective. “Hi-Lite has allowed us to take advanced program proving technology that was developed in academia and adapt it for industrial use,” said Yannick Moy, Hi-Lite Project Manager at AdaCore. “The project has shown that formal verification can complement testing and play a prominent and practical role in verifying critical software.”

    TOYOTA ITC Japan Selects SPARK Pro Language and Toolset for High-Reliability Research Project

    Posted by AdaCore
    TOYOTA InfoTechnology Center Japan has selected the SPARK language and SPARK Pro toolset for a high-reliability software research project. The goal of the project is to show that software requirements can be transformed into an implementation that can be proven to be free of run-time errors. This will have the key advantage of providing ultra-low-defect software for higher reliability in a vehicle component.

    Highlighting Ada on Social Media Sites

    by brukardt

    Based on a discussion on comp.lang.ada, we’ve created a new category on our “Learning Materials” for social media sites, and added links to the Ada groups on a number of them:

    • Stackoverflow – Questions and answers for programmers
    • Google+ – Ada Programming Community
    • LinkedIn – Ada Group

    All of these provide places to get help and information about Ada from other Ada users. We also added Planet Ada, a news and information site, to the website listings. These join the Reddit and Wikibooks sites, along with the old stand-by of the comp.lang.ada newsgroup, as places to go for Ada information.

    A new Embedded Ada book

    Published in Embedded.com by Jack Ganssle
    Jack Ganssle describes and discusses the McCormick, Singhoff, and Hugues book on embedded programming in Ada, suggesting that embedded programmers should read it, regardless of which language they currently use. (He calls it “new”, but it’s been around a while, having an April 2011 publication date and it’s been posted here for a while.)

    Ada inflitrates strongSwan

    by brukardt

    The popular strongSwan open source IPsec VPN project now makes use of Ada.

    The latest strongSwan release 5.0.3 [1] contains support for the Trusted Key Manager (TKM), which is a separate process providing security critical operations of the IKEv2 protocol. The TKM has been implemented from scratch in Ada, using some of the new Ada 2012 contract features for added confidence of meeting the specification.

    For more, see the project website at http://www.codelabs.ch/tkm/.
