A Compelling Case for Using BSV (Bluespec SystemVerilog) in Academia
- saigovardhan 2y agoAuthor here, When I joined InCore last year, I decided it would be meaningful to redesign my Undergraduate Capstone Project using Bluespec SystemVerilog (An InCore superpower) and contrast the efforts + compare the implementation with the legacy Verilog codebase. This blog is an account of the same, with a walkthrough of the design, comparison results and steps to replicate.

- Lain_2004 2y agoHLHDL's are clearly superior and is the way forward and there's no better way to prove the point than with real metrics on a real-time project absolutely loved the blog.
- saigovardhan 2y agoThank you! Yes, the purpose of this blog was to motivate peer hardware designers to switch to a much more intuitive HLHDL like BSV, especially in academia. This was my "skin-in-the-game" approach to travel back in time to the hardest problem I solved back in college (the MDSA Hardware Accelerator) and show how better/efficient I was in designing the same.
