Ada had built-in support for parallel programming from the start, and the successive standards keep improving that support, up to most recently for the new multiprocessor architectures. An overview of the support that already existed in Ada 83 and Ada 95 will be given, with practical examples so participants can try out some simple things first. Ada 2012 comes with interesting additions for using multiprocessors effectively. Embedded systems can use an extension of the Ravenscar profile to achieve analyzable real-time behavior on multicore platforms. Ada's dispatching domains achieve flexible allocation schemes for high-performance computing.
