MDSL, which stands for M icrocomputer D esign and S imulation L anguage, is one of an ever growing number of computer hardware design (or description) languages or CHDL's. The introduction of any new language, particularly a new CHDL, is accompanied by a number of WHYs. Why should anyone bother to develop a CHDL? Why did we bother to develop a new one? Why did MDSL take the form it did?
