    There is one more very important difference: the e language is an IEEE standard, with an active Working Group: http://www.eda.org/twiki/bin/view.cgi/P1647/WebHome Consequently, the e language has a healthy ecosystem of EDA tool support (including early adopter support in Synopsys' VCS), verification IP, training providers, and service providers. In contrast, Vera is a language that is proprietary to Synopsys, and is only supported by them and a declining handful of affiliated service houses.
