There exists no methodical standard for conflict analysis in the selection of optimal rule refinements. Current rule base refinement systems select the best rule refinements out o...
Multi-field packet classification is a key enabling function of a variety of network applications, such as firewall processing, Quality of Service differentiation, traffic billing...
We describe a digital circuit synthesis algorithm specialized for the domain of pattern matching circuits implemented in reconfigurable logic. We propose to use this algorithm as ...
