The High Order Language Working Group (HOLWG) was a working group instrumental in the development of the Ada programming language. The group was established in 1975 with the goal of establishing a single high order computer programming language appropriate for DoD real-time embedded computer systems.

HOLWG had three objectives:

  1. formulate the requirements for common DoD high order languages;
  2. compare those requirements with existing languages; and
  3. recommend adoption or implementation of the necessary common languages.
