Abstract
Systems and methods enabling search of a repository for the location of data that is similar to input data, using a defined measure of similarity, in a time that is independent of the size of the repository and linear in a size of the input data, and a space that is proportional to a small fraction of the size of the repository. The similar data segments thus located are further analyzed to determine their common (identical) data sections, regardless of the order and position of the common data sections in the repository and input, and in a time that is linear in the segment size and in constant space.

60. A method of searching a repository of binary uninterpretted data for a location of common data to an input data comprising:
-
analyzing segments of each of the repository and input data to determine a repository segment that is similar to an input segment, the analyzing step including searching an index of representation values of the repository data for matching representation values of the input in a time independent of a size of the repository and linear in a size of the input data; and analyzing the similar repository segment with respect to the input segment to determine their common data sections while utilizing at least some of the matching representation values for data alignment, in a time linear in a size of the input segment. - View Dependent Claims (63, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68, 69, 70, 71, 72, 73)
