Using ModelSim for Mixed-HDL Design

As design complexities increase and design cycles decrease, design reuse and the use of Intellectual Property become critically important in getting the product to market. But what language was the previous design written in? What format is the IP available in? Which HDL are the designers comfortable with? With ModelSim it isn't a concern. Come learn how the leading VHDL simulator extends it's technology to equally support Verilog for a seamless mixed-HDL simulation environment.
