Abstract

This book presents a practical approach to string matching problems, focusing on the algorithms and implementations that perform best in practice. It covers searching for simple, multiple, and extended strings, as well as regular expressions, exactly and approximately. It includes all of the most significant new developments in complex pattern searching. The clear explanations, step-by-step examples, algorithms pseudo-code, and implementation efficiency maps will enable researchers, professionals, and students in bioinformatics, computer science, and software engineering to choose the most appropriate algorithms for their applications.
