6 {1 V' y8 }' x& \5 A5 Iaccelerating intrusion detection operations at the edge network
using FPGAs. Cloud computing and network function
virtualization have led to a new appealing paradigm for service
delivery and management. Unfortunately, this paradigm fails
to correctly support IoT applications and services that seek

be seen as a cloud-based model that needs to be accommodated
to fulfill these services requirements. Again, one of the main
' {8 j" w& d' f9 B' u5 C& Fissues to be addressed in this context is how to improve the
