This paper defines a challenging problem of pattern matching between a pattern P and a text T, with wildcards and length constraints, and designs an efficient algorithm to return e...

The language MIX consists of all strings over the three-letter alphabet {a, b, c} that contain an equal number of occurrences of each letter. We prove Joshi’s (1985) conjecture ...
Abstract. We consider the sequence comparison problem, also known as “hidden pattern” problem, where one searches for a given subsequence in a text (rather than a string unders...

Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) involves searching a packet's header and payload against thousands of rules to detect possible attacks. The increase in Internet usage and growing...
We show how to speed up two string-matching algorithms: the Boyer-Moore algorithm (BM algorithm), and its version called here the reverse factor algorithm (RF algorithm). The RF al...
