Abstract: Regular expression matching is a crucial step in traffic analysis. Many hardware-based architectures are proposed to improve the matching throughput, such as FPGA. To date, however, the ...

The built-in JavaScript regular expression engine can, under certain special combinations, run in exponential time. This situation can trigger what's referred to as a Regular Expression Denial of ...

Abstract: Regular expressions are notoriously difficult to get right, with developers often having to resort to trial-and-error approaches. Even so, little attention ...

Quick: If you shout "regular expressions" in a crowd of Linux users, what happens? Answer: Everyone will tell you the right way to use them, and every answer will be different. Regular expressions -- ...

We present a formalization of a matching algorithm for extended regular expression matching based on locations and symbolic derivatives which supports intersection, complement and lookarounds and ...

There are two types of people in the world: those who have no idea what a regular expression is, and those who not only know what they are but can compose them on the fly and tend to use them in ...

JavaScript’s arrays can hold heterogeneous types, change size on the fly, and readily insert or remove elements. Traditional methods like slice, splice, and push/pop do this by operating on the array ...

I was involved in a recent discussion on the "best" way to remove a given parameter from a URL string. The conversation began with using string primitives to split and join the parameter, a method ...
