Corrections and suggestions are appreciated.
This product list is still incomplete - please help to update it.
This list is without any guarantee to be complete or correct. It is included
to enable contacts to vendors. It does not contain version, quality or price
information. (Please accept, that actually this information changes to fast
-to much work to keep such information up to date, but if there is a
volunteer willing to take this part...:-). Possibly some more information
will be added later. (state information unknown means not to be sure whether
a product is on the market or not)
There is actually no Public Domain stuff known. Most vendors offer special
prices for universities.

VHDL Validation Suite Oct 15th, 1990
VHDL VALIDATION SUITE RELEASE ANNOUNCEMENT
The VHDL Validation Suite, which was developed at Va. Tech
with funding provided by CAD Language Systems Inc.,
Daisy/Cadnetix, Genrad, MCC, Silicon Compiler Systems,
Vantage Analysis, and Zycad is now ready for public release.
The suite contains 2295 tests which cover 100% of the 1865
test points defined for the VHDL Language Reference Manual.
The suite is free to universities. Companies and govern-
mental agencies are required to pay a fee of $2000 for the
suite. The funds from these fees will be deposited in the
VHDL Suite Foundation account and will be used to maintain
and improve the suite.
The suite is written in: 1) TAR format on either VAX TK 50
or Sun/Appollo cartridges, or 2) DEC VMS BACKUP format on
TK50 cartridges. To obtain a copy of the suite send :1) ei-
ther a TK 50 (specify whether you want TAR or BACKUP format)
or Sun/Appollo cartridge and 2) a check (not required for
universities) for $2000, made out to VHDL Suite, to:
Professor J. R. Armstrong
Bradley Department of Electrical Engineering
Virginia Tech
Blacksburg, VA. 24061
If you have questions, contact Dr. Armstrong at 703-231-4723
(phone), 703-231-3362 (FAX) or by email sent to
JRA@VTVM1.BITNET.
Proposed IEEE VHDL Standard Logic System: available via anonymous ftp
from bears.ucsb.edu The directory is pub/VHDL, logic_system.tar.Z
I don't know if the following tools are PD or not, but they are accessible
by anonymous FTP:
mcnc: a vhdl parser written in prolog
(anonymous FTP on mcnc.org, a report is also available)
uceng: :there is a grammar suited for lex, but no actions
associated. There is also a validation suite.
