Abstract

This paper examines approaches used by the Ada programming language to interface to explicit operating system services such as events and sockets. We examine the potential for updating a specific interface, the POSIX Ada binding, to a more gereral interface to operating systems services. An approach is proposed to unify classes of services such as synchronous and asynchronous file IO in such an interface.
