An Ada-Like Language To Facilitate Reliable Coding Of Low Cost Embedded Systems, Michael Collins Jan 1995

An Ada-Like Language To Facilitate Reliable Coding Of Low Cost Embedded Systems, Michael Collins

Theses : Honours

Due to a lack of operating system (0/S) support, it is more difficult to develop programs for embedded systems than for workstations. For those developing on a low budget, the problem is often further compounded by the necessity of using inappropriate, 0/S dependent, compilers. This study attempts to ascertain those elements of a High Level Language (HLL) which are absolutely necessary and implementable to produce reliable, efficient, embedded programs without the benefit of a large budget. The study is based upon the Ada philosophy as the Ada language incorporates many desirable features for modelling real-world problems in terms of embedded …

Designing And Implementing An Ada Language Binding Specification For Odmg-93, Stephen R. Lindsay Dec 1994

Designing And Implementing An Ada Language Binding Specification For Odmg-93, Stephen R. Lindsay

Theses and Dissertations

Object-oriented database management systems (ODBMSs) represent the latest advancement in database technology, combining the reusability and maintainability of the object-oriented programming paradigm with the ability to efficiently store and retrieve a wide range of data types as well as code to manipulate stored data. Unfortunately, programmers developing software in the Ada programming language do not have the ability to interface to object databases without significant customized code development. One important reason for this has been the absence of a standard defining the constructs accessing ODBMS functionality. This thesis documents the creation of an Ada language binding to the ODMG-93 standard …
