bluespec
Toolchain for the Bluespec Hardware Definition Language
This is a compiler, simulator, and associated tools for Bluespec High Level Hardware Design Language (HL-HDL), supporting the two optional syntaxes, BSV and BH. Language specifications and tutorials are available in the BSVlang repository. Bluespec is a high-level hardware description language. It has a variety of advanced features including a powerful type system that can prevent errors prior to synthesis time, and its most distinguishing feature, Guarded Atomic Actions, allow you to define hardware components in a modular manner based on their invariants, and let the compiler pick a scheduler.
