An FPGA based architecture for complex rule matching with stateful inspection of multiple TCP connections
Claudio Greco, Enrico Nobile, Salvatore Pontarelli, Simone Teofili · 2010
In this paper a novel architecture for string matching is presented. It is oriented to an FPGA implementation and, differently from other similar works, it is particularly suitable for rules matching in multiple streams. The paper presents our developed architecture able to efficiently manage different streams, discusses how to optimize the design to limit the number of FPGA logic resources and shows the obtained results.
