VHDL is a programming language thatallows an individual to define how a piece of hardware behaves. This language was developedfirst by US military and became IEEE standard in 1987. It was updated in 1993 and is knowntoday as "IEEE standard 1076 1993". The complexity of ASIC and FPGA designs has caused anincrease in the use of hardware description languages such as VHDL.

The National Nanotechnology Infrastructure Network(NNIN) is an integrated collective of 14 universities with open facilities that support nanoscalescience and engineering research. The NNIN facilities train and support approximately 4,800users per year. The network offers a unique opportunity for research in societal and ethical issues(SEI) as well as providing SEI information to users. The goals of the NNIN’s SEI efforts are to:1) develop societal and ethical consciousness within the user community and the broader NSEcommunity and 2) broaden the exploration of the ethical and societal implications of NSE atNNIN and in the broader NSE community.
