CPM's 20Th Anniversary: a Statistical Retrospective
CPM’s 20th Anniversary: A Statistical Retrospective Elena Yavorska Harris1, Thierry Lecroq2, Gregory Kucherov3, and Stefano Lonardi1 1 Dept. of Computer Science – University of California – Riverside, CA, USA 2 University of Rouen, LITIS EA 4108, 76821 Mont-Saint-Aignan Cedex, France 3 CNRS (LIFL, Lille and J.-V.Poncelet Lab, Moscow) and INRIA Lille – Nord Europe 1 Introduction This year the Annual Symposium on Combinatorial Pattern Matching (CPM) celebrates its 20th anniversary. Over the last two decades the Symposium has established itself as the most recognized international forum for research in combinatorial pattern match- ing and related applications. Contributions to the conference typically address issues of searching and matching strings and more complex patterns such as trees, regular ex- pressions, graphs, point sets, and arrays. Advances in this field rely on the ability to expose combinatorial properties of the computational problem at hand and to exploit these properties in order to either achieve superior performance or identify conditions under which searches cannot be performed efficiently. The meeting also deals with com- binatorial problems in computational biology, data compression, data mining, coding, information retrieval, natural language processing and pattern recognition. The first edition of CPM was held in Paris in July 1990, and gathered about thirty participants. Since then the conference has been held every year, usually in June or July. Thirteen countries, over three continents, have hosted it (see Table 1). The “seed” of CPM can be traced back to a NATO-ASI Workshop in Maratea, Italy organized by Z. Galil and A. Apostolico. The volume collecting the contributions presented at the workshop [1] defined perhaps for the first time the scope of this research area, sometimes referred to as “stringology”. -
Network Neutrality and the False Promise of Zero-Price Regulation
NETWORK NEUTRALITY AND THE FALSE PROMISE OF ZERO-PRICE REGULATION C. Scott Hemphill t This Article examines zero-price regulation, the major distinguishing feature of many modern "network neutrality" proposals. A zero-price rule prohibits a broadbandInternet access providerfrom charging an application or content provider (collectively, "content provider") to send information to consumers. The Article differentiates two access provider strategies thought to justify a zero-price rule. Exclusion is anticompetitive behavior that harms a content provider to favor its rival. Extraction is a toll imposed upon content providers to raise revenue. Neither strategy raises policy concerns that justify implementation of a broad zero-price rule. First, there is no economic exclusion argument that justifies the zero-price rule as a general matter, given existing legal protections against exclusion. A stronger but narrow argument for regulation exists in certain cases in which the output of social producers, such as Wikipedia, competes with ordinary market-produced content. Second, prohibiting direct extraction is undesirable and counterproductive, in part because it induces costly and unregulated indirect extraction. I conclude, therefore, that recent calls for broad-basedzero-price regulation are mistaken. f Associate Professor and Milton Handler Fellow, Columbia Law School.
