Abstract
Packet classification plays a crucial role for a number of network services such as policy-based routing, firewalls and traffic billing, just to name a few. However, classification can be a bottleneck in the above mentioned applications if not implemented properly and efficiently. In this paper we propose an Application Specific Instruction Processor (ASIP) implementation for the PCIU (Packet Classification with an Incremental Update) algorithm. The proposed ASIP design is verified and tested using the ClassBench. Results obtained indicate that the ASIP implementation achieves on average 4× speed-up in terms of preprocessing and 21× speed-up in terms of classification over a state-of-the-art Xeon processor.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
