This program compiles regular expressions (regexes) written in the modified ECMAScript regex grammar into modular nondeterministic finite automata suitable for hardware acceleration.

This was originally an extended re-implementation of the "front-end" part in the following paper:
https://www.computer.org/csdl/proceedings/reconfig/2008/3474/00/3474a073-abs.html

It has since grown to include conversion of a set of NFAs to a DFA; compilation of NFAs to instruction suitable for simulation; and compilation of a DFA to hash-based data structures for a simulator.
