Complex Event Detection at Wire Speed with FPGAs

Summary: FPGA-implemented complex event detection inserted between the NIC and CPU enables real-time CEP at gigabit wire speed. The design delivers constant, predictable latency independent of network load, packet size, or data distribution, enabling efficient hybrid CPU-FPGA stream processing.
