Abstract. We present a bit-parallel technique to search a text of length n for a regular expression of m symbols permitting k differences in worst case time O(mn/ logk s), where s...
A central question in computational biology is the design of genetic markers to distinguish between two given sets of (DNA) sequences. This question is formalized as the NP-comple...
