This paper presents a methodology to efficiently translate Estelle protocols specifications into VHDL descriptions. The proposed methodology allows to generate protocol descriptions suitable for High Level Synthesis (HLS). The goal is to develop description styles for state machines in VHDL that minimizes the number of paths in the scheduling algorithms, during the HLS. As a result, the area of the synthesized circuits is optimized. An example using a specific HLS environment was developed in order to verify the efficiency of the proposed methodology.
