摘要

12 - A SYSTEM AND A METHOD FOR DETECTING COMPUTER WORMS IN A COMPUTER NETWORK USING MEMORY EFFICIENT CIRCULAR BUFFER ABSTRACT 5 THE PRESENT INVENTION RELATES TO THE IMPLEMENTATION OF A MEMORY EFFICIENT CIRCULAR BUFFER AND ITS METHOD TO ENSURE A HIGGH PERFORMANCE NETWORK WORM DETECTION ENGINE. THE WORM DETECTION ENGINE (10) DETECTS THE EXISTENCE OF WORMS IN A DISTRIBUTED COMPUTER NETWORK. THIS INVENTION PROPOSES THE IMPLEMENTATION OF A HIGHLY EFFICIENT CIRCULAR BUFFER TECHNOLOGY TO SUPPORT A HIGH PERFORMANCE NETWORK WORM DETECTION 1 0 ENGINE (IO). IT COMPRISES OF A BUFFERING MEANS (I]) FOR STORING DATA PACKETS AND A DETECTING MEANS (12) FOR IDENTIFYING WORMS FROM INCOMING AND OUTGOING DATA PACKETS FROM THE NETWORK.
