FreeHDL project
Project goals: To develop a VHDL simulator that: Has a graphical waveform viewer.
Has a source level debugger.
Is VHDL-93 compliant.
Is of commercial quality. (on par with, say, V-System - it'll take us a while to get there, but that should be our aim) Is freely distributable - both source and binaries - like Linux itself. (Under the Gnu General Public License (GPL)). Works with Linux.
If others want to port it to other...

SAVANT: An Extensible Intermediate for VHDL
The SAVANT project is an effort by University of Cincinnati's Experimental Computing Laboratory to build an extensible, object-oriented intermediate form (IIR) for the hardware description language VHDL.
The project produced a suite of software to analyze VHDL, build the IIR, and output C++ suitable for execution with the TyVIS VHDL simulation kernel.

Signs - VHDL Hardware Developement
Signs is a development environment for hardware designs in VHDL and other hardware description languages.
The tackled tasks are compilation, synthesis, simulation and testing of designs.
Due to the integration of these main areas it provides the ability to debug designs in an all-embracing manner by switching between source code, netlist and simulation.
Signs is free software and a protectionist of the open source spirit.
Thereby it is...
