Prefix based algorithms b o The search is done forward in the search window o Search for the longest prefix of the window Which is also a prefix of the pattern(s) oall the characters are read
Prefix based algorithms ⚫The search is done forward in the search window ⚫Search for the longest prefix of the window which is also a prefix of the pattern(s) ⚫all the characters are read
Suffix based algorithms o The search is done backwards along the search window Search for the longest suffix of the window which is also a suffix of the pattern(s) not all the characters are read which leads to sublinear average-case algorithms
Suffix based algorithms ⚫The search is done backwards along the search window ⚫Search for the longest suffix of the window which is also a suffix of the pattern(s) ⚫not all the characters are read, which leads to sublinear average-case algorithms
Factor based algorithms a o The search is done backwards along the search window o Search for the longest suffix of the window which is also a factor of the pattern(s) o not all the characters are read o Require to recognize the set of factors of the pattern( s)and this is quite complex
