In this work we study the size of Boyer-Moore automata introduced in Knuth, Morris & Pratt's famous paper on pattern matching. We experimentally show that a finite class of binary patterns produce very large Boyer-Moore automata, and find one particular case which we conjecture, generates automata of size @W(m^6). Further experimental results suggest that the maximal size could be a polynomial of O(m^7), or even an exponential O(2^0^.^4^m), where m is the length of the pattern. |
