The former moderator of the comp.parallel newsgroups just posted the
appended request for suggested readings at the graduate level in parallel
computing. It would be nice to get some Ada-related books in that list.

Suggestions should be sent to his e-mail address within the next two weeks.

John Hennessy informs me that they are working on an updated edition
of his architecture book. C.p. has at least 600 readers on google
groups independent of remaining usenet sites, and it has been a while
since I once again solicit every one for their suggested readings at
the graduate level in parallel computing. Just email your former
moderator your suggestions of what you think students of parallel
computing should read. You don't have to post, I merely tally the
suggestions. The old list is getting long in the tooth. If you
submitted suggestions before, you can change them, just let me know.
You have a week or two to send me your "vote" of say up to 10
references. A partial citation is usually fine, I'll get back to you
if I can't complete the citation myself. John will take the
compilation for his chapter on parallel computing.

Is it limited to books in English (Breguet/Zaffalon would be a good
candidate in French)?

I don't know whether non-English books are accepted as well.
Looking for the latest "Suggested readings" posting in comp.parallel,
I note that only publications in English are listed in the top 10.

But you can of course always suggest it.

"Building Parallel, Embedded, and Real-Time Applications with Ada" by
McCormick, Singhoff, and Hugues will be published by Cambridge
University Press at the end of this year. See
http://www.cambridge.org/catalogue/catalogue.asp?isbn=9780521197168
The release date is probably too late to be considered.
