Hi
Would you mind make a brief comparison between AXI4/AMBA and Wishbone? I’m wondering to know about the most important achievements if we use AMBA rather than Wishbone.
Depending whether we need to apply for a license for using AXI4/AMBA, this might be a problem especially for you, since you're in Iran.

i checked with the UK trademark database: there are 8 trademarks for the exact word "AXI" - none of them with ARM - and 23 for the exact word "AMBA". i checked the first few (1996, 1997), which would have been the priority filing date for AMBA (first created in 1996) and neither of them were by ARM.
the ever-reliable 100% factually correct wikipedia states happily that it's "100% open!!!!"
