Trade secret misappropriation is different from violations of other IP rights, since by definition trade secrets are secret, while patents and registered copyrights and trademarks are publicly available. Unlike other forms of IP [2], trade secret is basically a do it yourself form of protection. You do not register with the government to secure your trade secret. You simply keep the information confidential and personal. Trade secret protection lasts for as long as the secret is kept confidential. Many detractors think, this term specially serves the doctrinal agendas of parties opposing reform in the public interest [1] or otherwise abusing related legislations and that it disallows intelligent discussion about specific and often unrelated aspects of copyright, patents, trademarks etc.

Design at the RTL level is typical practice in modern digital design. IP cores delivered to chip makers as RTL, permit chip designers to modify designs (Only functional level). The use of VHDL is multi-purpose as it allows the behavior of the required system to be described (modeled) and verified (simulated) before synthesis tools translate the design into real hardware (gates and wires). VHDL also allows the description of a concurrent system. VHDL is a dataflow language, unlike procedural computing languages such as 'BASIC C' and 'Assembly Code', which all run sequentially, one instruction at a time. VHDL project is portable. Being created for one element base, a computing device project can be ported on another element base, for example VLSI with various
