On September 27th, 2024 at 11.30 am a new appointment of NECSTFridayTalk series titled "Exploiting Hardware and Software Integration to Unleash The Power of Regular Expressions" will take place at DEIB NECSTLab Meeting Room (Building 20) and on line by Zoom.
During this talk, we will have, as speaker, Filippo Carloni, PhD student at Dipartimento di Elettronica, Informazione e Bioingegneria.

Pattern matching based on Regular Expressions (REs) is one of the most pervasive and challenging computational kernels in today's scenarios. Packet filtering, malware analysis, or bioinformatics are examples of the most famous applications in which REs represent an effective way to search for specific data characteristics. However, due to the embarrassingly sequential nature of these analyses and the increasing requirements in modern processing systems, efficient RE execution is becoming more critical.
This talk will provide a broad overview of how to combine hardware and software specialization to provide high-throughput and low-latency REs execution while keeping low energy requirements.

The NECSTLab is a DEIB laboratory, with different research lines on advanced topics in computing systems: from architectural characteristics, to hardware-software codesign methodologies, to security and dependability issues of complex system architectures.

Every week, the “NECSTFridayTalk” invites researchers, professionals or entrepreneurs to share their work experiences and projects they are implementing in the “Computing Systems”.
