h1. Introduction
*_Sim-nML_* is an architecture description language (ADL) used in MicroTESK to describe the architecture of a microprocessor under verification. It works at the instruction set level concentrating on behavioral properties and hiding implementation details of the microprocessor. Sim-nML is flexible and easy-to-use language based on attribute grammar. A Sim-nML specification represents a programmer''s model of the microprocessor that covers the following aspects:
* supported data types;
* registers and memory;
* addressing modes;
* syntax and semantics of instructions.
