Abstract

En 中文
This paper presents a bitmap-based hardware architecture for the Glushkov nondeterministic finite automaton (G-NFA), which recognizes a given regular expression. We show that the inductions of the functions needed to construct the G-NFA can be generalized to include other special symbols commonly used in extended regular expressions such as the POSIX 1003.2 format. Our proposed implementation can detect the ending positions of all substrings of an input string T, which start at arbitrary positions of T and belong to the language defined by the given regular expression. To achieve high performance, the implementation is generalized to the NFA, which processes K symbols in each operation cycle. We provide an efficient solution for the boundary condition when the length of the input string is not an integral multiple of K. Compared with previous designs, our proposed architecture is more flexible and programmable because the pattern matching engine uses memory rather than logic.
