Abstract
In this work. we review the evolution of hardware description languages. We describe the recent needs concerning platform based design. the challenges of the introduction of intellectual property block, the ever increasing part of software components in a digital systems and its impact on the evolution of modeling capabilities. We review the features of object oriented methodologies in dealing with these challenges and in providing design reuse capabilities as well as safe-modeling of hardware/software systems.
