G.L. Prajapati, Mohd. Sharique, Piyush Nagani, Adarsh V. . Study of Selected Shifting based String Matching Algorithms. International Journal of Computer Applications. 140, 9 ( April 2016), 18-27. DOI=10.5120/ijca2016909441
This paper presents detailed comparisons and analysis of shift-based exact string matching algorithms. The paper proposes comparison among these algorithms on the basis of execution time taken by the algorithms to completely match a given pattern on a given text. The algorithms have been analyzed on the following parameters: length of pattern, length of text, and number of characters in the text. This study will help in selecting the appropriate algorithm to be used in solving a particular real-life problem.
