摘要: Abstract A superstring of a set strings {s1,…, sn} is string s containing each si, 1 ⩽ i n, as substring. The problem is: Given S and positive integer K, does have length K? has applications to data storage; specifically, compression. We consider the complexity problem. NP-completeness results dealing with sets over both finite infinite alphabets are presented. Also, for restricted version problem, linear time algorithm given.
