Verilog plus C language modeling with PLI 2.0: The next generation simulation language

Verilog 98 Programming Language Interface (PLI) 2.0 vpi routine is here advocated for high level electronic design. PLI 2.0 algorithms and source code examples are presented for enhancing Verilog and for modeling abstract hardware. It is argued that because Verilog PLI 2.0 implements high level programming iterators and object abstraction, no new HDL is needed. Verilog PLI 2.0 provides a superior framework for hardware design abstraction and system architecture because any abstract design can be expressed as a computer program
