Modern deep packet inspection systems use regular expressions to define various patterns of interest in network data streams. Deterministic Finite Automata (DFA) are commonly used...
—Regular expression matching has become a critical yet challenging technique in content-aware network processing, such as application identification and deep inspection. To meet ...
Pattern matching is the most computation intensive task of a network intrusion detection system (NIDS). In this paper we present a hardware architecture to speed up the pattern mat...
