Boyer-Moore strategy to efficient approximate string matching
[chapter]

Lecture Notes in Computer Science
We propose a simple but e cient algorithm for searching all occurrences of a pattern or a class of patterns (length m) in a text (length n) with at most k mismatches. This algorithm relies on the Shift-Add algorithm of Baeza-Yates and Gonnet 6], which involves representing by a bit number the current state of the search and uses the ability of programming languages to handle bit words. State representation should not, therefore, exceeds the word size !, that is, m(dlog 2 (k + 1)e + 1) !. This
