Abstract :
A novel configuration based general-purpose protocol processor is proposed. It can perform much faster protocol processing compared to general-purpose processors. As it is configuration based, different protocols can be configured for different protocols and different applications. The configurability makes compatibility possible, it also processes protocols very fast on the fly. The proposed architecture can be used as a platform or an accelerator for network-based applications
