A new problem in string searching
We describe a substring search problem that arises in group presentation simplification processes. We suggest a two-level searching model: skip and match levels. We give two timestamp algorithms which skip searching parts of the text where there are no matches at all and prove their correctness. At the match level, we consider Harrison signature, Karp-Rabin fingerprint, Bloom filter and automata based matching algorithms and present experimental performance figures.
