abstract = "Non-cryptographic hash function is the core algorithm
in network data stream technologies, its performance
plays a crucial role in data stream algorithms. In this
paper, two new quality criteria active flow metric and
homology hash value correlation metric are firstly
proposed for evaluating hash functions used in data
stream algorithms. Experiments towards the metrics
defined on 15 representative hash functions are
performed using the real IPv6 network data captured
from CERNET backbone. Bitwise operators are common
candidates for implementing hash functions. We
experimentally prove that XOR can introduce the most
entropy to hash values compared with other 3 operators.
On the basis of operator analysis, we design a novel
hash function using Genetic Programming for data stream
algorithm and network measurement. It can compete with
the state of the art hash functions.",
