Tuple Pruning Using Bloom Filters for Packet Classification
Hyesook Lim, So Yeon Kim · IEEE Micro · 2010
Tuple pruning for packet classification provides fast search and a low implementation complexity. The tuple pruning algorithm reduces the search space to a subset of tuples determined by individual field lookups that cause off-chip memory accesses. The authors propose a tuple-pruning algorithm that reduces the search space through Bloom filter queries, which do not require off-chip memory accesses.
