Abstract

See full text

Methods and systems for determining consecutive matches are provided. According to one embodiment, a class definition and a data stream are received by a network security device. The data stream is partitioned into multiple data blocks each containing N data segments. Each data block is processed in parallel to compute: (i) a value (F) indicating whether every data segment value meets the class definition; (ii) a value (L) indicating a number of consecutive data segment values meeting the class definition starting from the left; (iii) a value (M) indicating a maximum number of consecutive data segment values meeting the class definition; and (iv) a value (R) indicating a number of consecutive data segment values meeting the class definition starting from the right. Corresponding values for each data block are then aggregated to determine a maximum number of consecutive data segment values meeting the class definition for the entire data stream.
