Abstract:

This research grant is titled Research, Development, Training Education Using the Ada Programming Language and is hereafter called ReDTEA. The primary goal of this activity was to conduct research in the application and development of Ada, and in broader terms the objectives were as follows 1 To develop numerical algorithms for parallel processing using the Ada language 2 To develop new methodologies in reusing Ada software 3 To solve select problems in applied mathematics using MACSYMA and Ada 4 Simulate the interactions of nodes in a network using Ada 5 To increase the cadre of educations available to provide Ada training by conducting Ada workshops for Norfolk State University faculty and staff 6 To develop a series of in-class and individualized modules addressing Ada programming using computer assisted instruction and 7 To disseminate research and computer aided instruction modules to other minority institutions through computer networking, workshops, and lecture series. Keywords Software reuse, Network routing.
