Abstract
Conlan (Consensus language) is a general, formal language construction mechanism for the description of hardware and firmware at different levels of abstraction. Its basic object types and operations describe the behavior and the structure of digital systems. The Conlan construction mechanism uses the notion of language derivation; it expresses objects, operational primitives, and syntax of a new member of the Conlan family in terms of the corresponding entities of a previously defined language, Base Con Lan. The authors outline work on the derivation of languages from BCL and describe the status and plans for software tools supporting language derivation and implementation.
