Integrated device manufacturers (IDM) receive the ARM Processor IP as synthesizable RTL (written in Verilog).
The objective of the meeting was to define requirements for a next-generation design language that would address perceived shortcomings in existing languages such as VHDL and Verilog.
•
The first approach ultimately resulted in SystemVerilog and extensions to VHDL while the second resulted in SystemC, all of which became Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) standards for the semiconductor industry.
It allows behavioral Verilog code to invoke C functions, and C functions to invoke standard Verilog system tasks.
There was considerable delay (possibly procrastination) between the first Verilog-A language reference manual and the full Verilog-AMS, and in that time Verilog moved to the IEEE, leaving Verilog-AMS behind at Accellera.
