A very fast substring search algorithm 论文

摘要

This article describes a substring search algorithm that is faster than the Boyer-Moore algorithm. This algorithm does not depend on scanning the pattern string in any particular order. Three variations of the algorithm are given that use three different pattern scan orders. These include: (1) a “Quick Search” algorithm; (2) a “Maximal Shift” and (3) an “Optimal Mismatch” algorithm.
