—Regular expression matching has become a critical yet challenging technique in content-aware network processing, such as application identification and deep inspection. To meet ...
Programming specialized network processors (NPU) is inherently difficult. Unlike mainstream processors where architectural features such as out-of-order execution and caches hide ...
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...
Deep Payload Inspection systems like SNORT and BRO utilize regular expression for their rules due to their high expressibility and compactness. The SNORT IDS system uses the PCRE ...
