I am attempting to find an efficient approximate string matching
algorithm and so far have had a frustrating time.  I have an paper
by Landau and Vishkin from a 1986 ACM Proceedings that describes an
O(kn) algorithm, however, the paper refers to other works that I have not
been able to locate.  Does anyone know of a good survey paper or textbook
with a good treatment of this subject?
