Welcome to the Home Page for ACM SIGAda — the Special Interest Group on Ada. Here you'll find information on the SIGAda organization and pointers to current information and resources for the Ada programming language.

In Memoriam Peter Amey Peter Amey passed away on 3 April 2008 after a long and courageous battle against cancer, which he documented in his usual lucid and witty style on his website (linked above).

About the SIGAda WWW Home Page

ACM SIGAda is the Special Interest Group on Ada, a part of ACM. SIGAda is a powerful resource for the software community's ongoing understanding of the scientific, technical and organizational aspects of the Ada language's use, standardization, environments and implementations.

This WWW server is our latest effort to help expand the software development community's knowledge of and accessibility to Ada information. We want to make this the one stop for information on both SIGAda's current activities and on the Ada language and community at large.
