Have you checked out the two-process method described in [0]? I used it to implement a dual-core MIPS subset with some relative ease. It was definitely better than dataflow style! Using records and enums also greatly improves ModelSim waveforms. A project done in dataflow: https://github.com/jevinskie/aes-over-pcie/tree/master/source https://github.com/jevinskie/aes-over-pcie/tree/master/sourc...
