              Ada for Distributed Embedded Targets


   Control Data is the prime contractor for the ALS/N, the Navy's Ada
program support environment.  We will be developing the system software
to compile Ada applications for Navy standard computers consisting of
uniprocessors, multiprocessors and distributed target configurations
with heterogeneous nodes.  This includes a sophisticated compiler,
linker, and exporter as well as Ada run-time support.  The project also
includes a multiprogramming, multitasking, real-time distributed
operating system with damage control and recovery capabilities.
Development will be done primarily in Ada on a VAX 11/780 or VAX 11/785.

   This is a challenging opportunity for a talented, motivated software
engineer.  We are designing and implementing state-of-the-art software
that will pave the way for a new generation of embedded applications.  It
is a rare chance to participate in an exciting system development.

   You must be expert in Pascal or Modula-2, and you must have some
familiarity with compilation techniques; you must be able to learn
quickly, and you must be willing to make a commitment to developing a
high-quality product.  You must be able to work individually and as part
of a team.  You must want to succeed.

   If you can meet these qualifications, we'd like to talk to you about
working with us.  Any of the following would be helpful (the more the
better):

       .Advanced degree in computer science
       .Ada experience
       .Real-time software experience
       .Network / distributed processing experience
       .Experience with PSL / PSA
       .Experience with computer systems performance analysis

   We believe that this is one of the most exciting - and rewarding -
Ada development projects currently going.  If you are interested and
qualified, please call Don Miller at (404) 399-2111, or send a cover
letter and resume to:

       Control Data Government Systems

P.S.  We also need help with another Ada development project - using
state of the art code generation technology to target an Ada compiler to
the Motorola 68000 processor.  If you are familiar with the 68K
architecture and if you want to be an Ada expert, call us!
