Abstract

The synchronization mechanism of the Ada Language is intended to provide a facility for tasks to synchronize their actions. Accept and select statements are the two main features of the language that deal with the issue of synchronization This paper points out one major problem that arises in connection with these features and proposes a possible solution to it.
