Abstract

The sux tree is an extremely important data structure for stringology, with a wealth of ap- plications in bioinformatics. Classical implementations require much space, which renders them useless for large problems. Recent research has yielded two implementations oering widely dierent space-time tradeos. However, each of them has practicality problems regarding either space or time requirements. In this paper we implement a recent theoretical proposal and show it yields an extremely interesting structure that lies in between, oering both practical times and aordable space. The implementation of the theoretical proposal is by no means trivial and involves signicant algorithm engineering.
