- adezxc 1y agoThere's this talk by AdaCore and a SWE@nVidia on how nVidia utilized Ada/Spark for Embedded software: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2YoPoNx3L5E https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2YoPoNx3L5E
- DragonSpiritWTP 1y agoThey use the SPARK subset of Ada to develop the most critical parts of their DriveOS. This contributed to their success of getting DriveOS certified at the highest automotive safety standard, ASIL-D. https://www.eenewseurope.com/en/nvidia-drives-ada-and-spark-into-driverless-cars/ https://www.eenewseurope.com/en/nvidia-drives-ada-and-spark-...
- DoingIsLearning 1y ago> This contributed to their success of getting DriveOS certified at the highest automotive safety standard, ASIL-D. ASIL is just a risk classification scheme from A to D, with D being the highest risk of initial hazard. TUD SUD certified that Drive OS is ISO-26262 complaint and that it can be used for a safety-critical application up to the highest risk context of ASIL-D (Think activating brakes on a AEB system, or deploying airbags).
- sgammon 1y agoThere is a generation of graphics cards under the name "Ada." For example: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1811918-REG/nvidia_900_5g133_2250_000_rtx_6000_ada_graphic.html https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1811918-REG/nvidia_90... I believe TIOBE counts by search activity for a given token. I.e. large search volume of the token "Ada" would show up in TIOBE, whether it is for the line of graphics cards from NVIDIA or the programming language.
- sgammon 1y agoI guess it’s worse than I realized. They are using result counts, not activity.
