- -- Abstract :
- -- Band Demo 3, or BD3 as the files and mainline procedure are named,
- -- is a demonstration program which illustrates how Ada and its tasking
- -- mechanism can be used to create a model of an activity in the real
- -- world. BD3 is a model of a bank, where the bank contains several
- -- tellers, implemented as Ada tasks, and is used by customers, also
- -- implemented as Ada tasks. The user at the console can monitor the
- -- status of the bank and the accounts of its customers and cause more
- -- customer tasks to execute, thereby increasing the level of activity
- -- at the bank. The tasks all operate in parallel, so a variety of
- -- events can be thought of as happening at the same time, controlled by
- -- the Ada runtime system which is built into the Adda program by the
- -- Ada compilation system.
