Abstract

See full text

Methods and apparatus are disclosed for possibly decreasing the number of associative memory entries by supplementing an associative memory result with discriminator bits from an original set of information. One implementation operates on a set of information, the set of information including a lookup word portion and a discriminator portion. A lookup word is derived based on the lookup word portion. A lookup operation is performed on an associative memory, such as, but not limited to a binary or ternary content-addressable memory, using the lookup word to generate an associative memory result. A memory lookup operation is performed on a memory based on the associative memory result and the discriminator portion.
