Abstract

In the recent years, a lot of theoretical work has been done on suffix tree and suffix array construction. In 2000, it was shown that suffix trees and thereby suffix arrays (converted from the suffix trees) over an integer alphabet, can be constructed in linear time. In 2003, three linear suffix array construction algorithms were published which do not require suffix trees. We have adapted one of these algorithms to external memory and applied several improvements to it and other external memory suffix array construction algorithms. One of these improvement is called pipelining which reduces the I/Os of the algorithms, significantly.
