Abstract

This paper presents a taxonomy of some exact, right-to-left, string-matching algorithms. The taxonomy is based on results obtained by using logic program transformation over a naive and nondeterministic specification. A derivation of the search part and some notes about the preprocessing part of each algorithm is presented. The derivations show several design decisions behind each algorithm, and allow us to organize the algorithms within a taxonomic tree, giving us a better understanding of these algorithms and possible mechanical procedures to derive them.
