Games for Succinctness of Regular Expressions [PDF]
We present a version of so called formula size games for regular expressions. These games characterize the equivalence of languages up to expressions of a given size. We use the regular expression size game to give a simple proof of a known non-elementary succinctness gap between first-order logic and regular expressions.

Understanding Regular Expressions
In this exercise we will use advanced find-and-replace capabilities in a word processing application in order to make use of structure in a brief historical document that is essentially a table in the form of prose.

Minimizing nfa's and regular expressions [PDF]
We show inapproximability results concerning minimization of nondeterministic finite automata (nfa's) as well as of regular expressions relative to given nfa's, regular expressions or deterministic finite automata (dfa's).We show that it is impossible to

Derivatives for Enhanced Regular Expressions [PDF]
Regular languages are closed under a wealth of formal language operators. Incorporating such operators in regular expressions leads to concise language specifications, but the transformation of such enhanced regular expressions to finite automata becomes more involved.

Regular expression types for XML [PDF]
We propose regular expression types as a foundation for XML processing languages. Regular expression types are a natural generalization of Document Type Definitions (DTDs), describing structures in XML documents using regular expression operators (i.e., *, ?, |, etc.) and supporting a simple but powerful notion of

Regular expression patterns [PDF]
We extend Haskell with regular expression patterns . Regular expression patterns provide means for matching and extracting data which goes well beyond ordinary pattern matching as found in Haskell. It has proven useful for string manipulation and for processing structured data such as XML.

Testing Tool for Information Visualizations based on User Interactions
Decision-making has become a vital tool in any organization, evolving from a process based on experience and intuition to one increasingly established in data analysis.

Synchronized Regular Expressions [PDF]
Abstract Text manipulation is one of the most common tasks for everyone using a computer. The increasing number of textual information in electronic format that every computer user collects everyday stresses the need of more powerful tools to interact with texts.

Derivatives of approximate regular expressions [PDF]
Automata, Logic and Semantics Our aim is to construct a finite automaton recognizing the set of words that are at a bounded distance from some word of a given regular language. We define new regular operators, the similarity operators, based on a generalization of the notion of distance and we introduce the family of regular expressions ...
