Abstract
On May 3rd, 2021 at 12:00 am "Alveare a novel mixed hardware-software framework for efficient execution of regular expressions", a new appointment of NECST Monday Talk, will be held online via Facebook by Filippo Carloni, MSc student in Computer Science and Engineering.
The increasing necessity to analyze a large amount of data quickly with a set of rules requires new efficient solutions to satisfy performance and adaptability requirements. One of the most common ways to represent these rules is the Regular Expressions (REs). Most of the existing solutions focused on this problem have to choose between performances or the flexibility to support various REs easily. Alveare is a new approach to bridge the gap in the literature on the tradeoff between performance and flexibility. Indeed, Alveare exploits the REs as an instruction language for a custom processor that achieves specialized hardware performance with software compilation flexibility.
In particular, Alveare is a domain-specific framework comprising a compiler and a computer architecture tailored for REs that shows remarkable performance.
