Summary

• "Hardware description language (HDLs) hold the key to future processor designs, but until now no book has offered a clear analysis of the basic principles underlying HDLs. Hardware Description Languages is the first book to unlock the often hidden science of HDLs along with their origins and basic concepts.".
• "Hardware Description Languages is written for practicing electronic CAD engineers, researchers in simulation and verification of electronic CAD, graduate and doctoral students in computer design, and undergraduates specializing in electronic hardware design."--BOOK JACKET.
