Originally sponsored by the US Department of Defense, the Ada programming language is designed for applications where correctness, safety, and reliability are the prime goals. As an internationally standardized object-oriented programming language (OOP), Ada is well-suited for developing reusable components, real-time and parallel processing systems, and interfaces with systems written in other languages. Advanced features include: a high level of abstraction, strong typing, OOP characteristics (classes, inheritance, polymorphism, late binding), and tasking constructions.
