ParaRegex
Zhe Fu, Zhi Liu, Jun Li · 2016
In this paper, we propose ParaRegex, a novel approach for fast parallel regular expression matching. ParaRegex is a framework that implements data-parallel regular expression matching for deterministic finite automaton based methods. Experimental evaluation shows that ParaRegex produces a fast matching engine with speeds of up to 6 times compared to sequential implementations on a commodity 8-thread workstation.
