Succinct Representation of Static Packet Classifiers
Wencheng Lu, Sartaj K. Sahni · IEEE/ACM Transactions on Networking · 2009
We develop algorithms for the compact representation of the 1- and 2-dimensional tries that are used for Internet packet classification. Our compact representations are experimentally compared with competing compact representations for 1- and multi-dimensional packet classifiers and found to simultaneously reduce the number of memory accesses required for a lookup as well as the memory required to store the classifier.
