Terms are defined throughout this International Standard,
indicated by
italic type. Terms explicitly defined in this International
Standard are not to be presumed to refer implicitly to similar terms
defined elsewhere. Mathematical terms not defined in this International
Standard are to be interpreted according to the
CRC Concise Encyclopedia
of Mathematics, Second Edition. Other terms not defined in this International
Standard are to be interpreted according to the
Webster's Third New
International Dictionary of the English Language. Informal descriptions

Discussion: Here are some AARM-only definitions:
{
Ada Rapporteur Group (ARG)}
{
ARG}
The Ada Rapporteur Group (ARG) interprets the Ada
Reference Manual. {
Ada Issue (AI)}
{
AI}
An Ada Issue (AI) is a numbered ruling from the ARG.
Ada Issues created for Ada 83 are denoted as "AI83", while
Ada Issues created for Ada 95 are denoted as "AI95" in this
document. {
Ada Commentary Integration Document (ACID)}
{
ACID}
The Ada Commentary Integration Document (ACID) is
an edition of the Ada 83 RM in which clearly marked insertions and deletions
indicate the effect of integrating the approved AIs. {
Uniformity Rapporteur
Group (URG)}
{
URG}
The
Uniformity Rapporteur Group (URG) issued recommendations intended to
increase uniformity across Ada implementations. The functions of the
URG have been assumed by the ARG. {
Uniformity Issue (UI)}
{
UI}
A Uniformity Issue (UI) was a numbered recommendation
from the URG. A Defect Report and Response is an official query to WG9
about an error in the standard. Defect Reports are processed by the ARG,
and are referenced here by their ISO numbers: 8652/nnnn. Most changes
to the Ada 95 standard include reference(s) to the Defect Report(s) that
prompted the change. {
ACVC (Ada Compiler Validation Capability)
[partial]}
{
Ada Compiler Validation Capability
(ACVC) [partial]}
{
ACATS (Ada Conformity Assessment
Test Suite) [partial]}
{
Ada Conformity Assessment
Test Suite (ACATS) [partial]}
The
Ada Conformity
Assessment Test Suite (ACATS) is a set of tests intended to check
the conformity of Ada implementations to this standard. This set of tests
was previously known as the Ada Compiler Validation Capability (ACVC).
