The following tutorial, by Stuart Sutherland of Sutherland HDL, is an updated version of a paper presented at HDLCon in March 2000. It provides an overview of the changes in the Verilog-2001 standard.

Because the specification was developed to align with SystemVerilog constructs and principles, we can even extract data structures and constraints from our existing SystemVerilog environments to ...

Going the schematic capture route eliminates the need to learn VHDL or Verilog. [Carl’s] tutorial starts with installing Altera’s Quartus II software.
