Abstract. Regular expressions, or simply regex, have been widely used as a powerful pattern matching and text extractor tool through decades. Although they provide a powerful and f...
This paper presents a new polynomial-time algorithm for the inclusion problem for certain pairs of regular expressions. The algorithm is not based on construction of finite automat...
—Regular expression matching has become a critical yet challenging technique in content-aware network processing, such as application identification and deep inspection. To meet ...
Regular expressions (REs), because of their succinctness and clear syntax, are the common choice to represent regular languages. However, efficient pattern matching or word recogni...
An approach is presented for high throughput matching of regular expressions (regexes) by first converting them into corresponding Non-deterministic Finite Automata (NFAs) which a...
