Press release:

24th Ada-Europe Conference on Reliable Software Technologies

International experts meet in Warsaw

Warsaw, Poland (5 June 2019) - Ada-Europe together with EDC (the
Engineering Design Center, a partnership of General Electric and
the Institute of Aviation), organize from 11 to 14 June 2019 the
"24th International Conference on Reliable Software Technologies -
Ada-Europe 2019" in Warsaw, Poland.  The event is in cooperation with
the Ada Resource Association (ARA), and with ACM's Special Interest
Groups on Ada (SIGAda), on Embedded Systems (SIGBED) and on Programming
Languages (SIGPLAN).

The Ada-Europe series of conferences has over the years become
a leading international forum for providers, practitioners and
researchers in reliable software technologies.  These events
highlight the increased relevance of Ada in general and in safety-
and security-critical systems in particular, and provide a unique
opportunity for interaction and collaboration between academics and
industrial practitioners.

This year's conference offers tutorials and a workshop, two keynotes,
a technical program of refereed papers and industrial presentations, an
industrial exhibition and vendor presentations, and a social program.

Two tutorials are scheduled on Tuesday, targeting different audiences:
"An Introduction to Ada", for those who want to understand the benefits
of using Ada; and "Controlling I/O Devices with Ada, using the Remote
I/O Protocol", for those willing to develop Ada programs that control
external hardware devices.  On Friday the conference hosts for the
6th consecutive year the workshop on "Challenges and new Approaches
for Dependable and Cyber-Physical Systems Engineering" (DeCPS 2019):
registration is complementary for conference participants.

The industrial exhibition opens Tuesday mid-afternoon in the networking
area and runs until the end of Thursday afternoon.  Exhibitors include
AdaCore, PTC Developer Tools, Rapita Systems, Vector, and Ada-Europe.
All tutorial and conference participants are invited to the exhibition
opening, as well as to the Welcome Aperitif afterwards.

Two eminent keynote speakers have been invited to open each day
of the core conference program: Michael Klemm (OpenMP, Germany), on
"OpenMP API: A Story about Threads, Tasks and Devices"; and Tucker Taft
(AdaCore, USA), on "A 2020 View of Ada".

The technical program on Wednesday and Thursday presents 9 refereed
technical papers and 8 industrial presentations in sessions on
Assurance Issues in Critical Systems, Tooling Aid for Verification,
Best Practices for Critical Applications, Uses of Ada in Challenging
Environments, Verification Challenges, and Real-Time Systems.
Also included is a speaker's corner on "Experience from 40 years of
teaching Ada", and vendor presentations.  Peer-reviewed papers will
be published in an open-access journal, industrial presentations and
tutorial abstracts in the Ada User Journal, the quarterly magazine
of Ada-Europe.

The social program includes on Tuesday evening a Welcome Aperitif
on the terrace of the Institute of Aviation, enjoying a wonderful
view of the Warsaw airport and city center, accompanied by drinks and
typical Polish snacks.  On Wednesday evening will be the traditional
Ada-Europe Conference Banquet, with Polish cuisine, drinks, and live
piano music, in the restaurant "Przepis na kompot" in the town where
Chopin was born.

The Best Paper Award will be presented during the Conference Banquet,
the Best Presentation Award during the Closing session.

The full program is available on the conference web site.
Online registration is still possible.
