The success of VHDL since it has been balloted in 1987 as an IEEE
standard may look incomprehensible to the large population of
hardware designers, who had never heared of Hardware Description
Languages before (for at least 90% of them), as well as to the few
hundreds of specialists who had been working on these languages for
a long time (25 years for some of them). Until 1988, only a very
small subset of designers, in a few large companies, were used to
describe their designs using a proprietary HDL, or sometimes a HDL
inherited from a University when some software environment happened
to be developped around it, allowing usability by third parties. A
number of benefits were definitely recognized to this practice,
such as functional verification of a specification through
simulation, first performance evaluation of a tentative design, and
sometimes automatic microprogram generation or even automatic high
level synthesis. As there was apparently no market for HDL's, the
ECAD vendors did not care about them, start-up companies were
seldom able to survive in this area, and large users of proprietary
tools were spending more and more people and money just to maintain
their internal system.
