Abstract :
The paper discusses issues related to the application of information modelling to VHDL. It is shown that an information model of VHDL can provide a coherent and uniform description of: the VHDL objects at different levels of design, the interrelationships between the design levels, and the behavioural semantics of the language. A hierarchy of VHDL information models can exist which encompasses the range from abstraction to detail. The `core´ model at the apex of this hierarchy is the base for the paper
