摘要

The invention relates to a device for searching for element correspondence in a list, said device comprising: a plurality of content-adressable memory modules configured so as to be able to compare in parallel an input element with the content thereof, the list being represented by the concatenation of the valid content of said memories in an order defined by a list of priority, a module for the determination, in said list of priority, of the first module wherein the input element corresponds to an element stored in said module, and a module for reading the first element of said determined module corresponding to the input element.
