Product Description

Review
"The reader will enjoy John Barnes' lively guidance through SPARK. With panache he combines rigorous clarity and a great sense of fun."
from the foreword by Bernard Carré

"I've long watched for an approachable discussion of SPARK. This is it. ... The community and SPARK have long deserved to meet each other on such friendly terms."
James Sutton, Lockheed

"This book will be indispensable to the serious SPARK user, since it includes a very accessible definition of the language and provides all the necessary background material on static analysis as performed by the tools."
Phil Thornley, British Aerospace



Product Description
High Integrity Ada is an introduction to the SPARK programming language and its associated tools. Developed for the writing of high integrity software, SPARK is valued in application areas where getting the program right really matters.

4.0 out of 5 stars Taste and Intelligence:1 Fashion:0 Wake up to Sparc Ada!, 7 Nov 2000
By A Customer
This book is a must for developers who have the good sense to ignore fashion and consider developing mission critical software in Ada. Everyone else is going to find the material dull! Barnes has done a good job in explaining the concepts as well as the practicalities of SPARC and has even managed to expand my understanding of Ada (and I thought I knew everything). The selection of language features used does not inhibit programming creativity (except for the loss of Generics) and combined with the SPARC Annotations, give the opportunity to build simpler, more correct programs. Compare this with state-of-the-ark C++! I particularly like Barnes pragmatic approach to Formal proofs. These Mission Critical developers are not the rabid, ideological bunch I thought they were! SPARC Ada is a doddle to learn and apply successfully, a victory for common sense. stewart.hall@scisys.co.uk
