Abstract :
The current paper proposes a solution for offloading compute-intensive string matching operations performed by modern network intrusion detection systems (NIDS) or ant viruses to the GPU using OpenCL´s programing model and serialized implementations of Aho-Corasick algorithm. The solution aims to provide scalability and performance in heterogeneous environments.
