         General Chair:  Terry Mayfield, IDA

         Program Chair:  John McHugh, Research Triangle Institute

         Local Arrangements: John McHugh

         An interdisciplinary Workshop on issues relating to Ada
         Verification [issues] sponsored by the Institute for Defense
         Analyses in association with the Research Triangle
         Institute.  Submissions from the following areas are
         solicited:

              Ada Language Issues                  Security
              Verification Methodologies           Formal Semantics
              Specification Languages              Concurrency
              "Instrumented" Compilation Systems   AI & Verification
              Automated Verification Environments

         The theme of the workshop is "Reaching Verifiable Ada Systems
         By 1990." Its purpose is to address advances in verification
         technology, to continue the adaptation of current technology
         in verification systems and methods with the needs of Ada
         Users, and to identify the road map for future basic/applied
         research in Ada verification technology. Papers will be
         grouped under the following topics:

               Active/Proposed Research Projects    Current Methods
               Approaches for Technology Transfer   Security Issues
               Ada Language Issues
