Detailed Description

This diff implementation is mainly lifted from the LCS algorithm of the Eclipse project which in turn is based on Myers' "An O(ND) difference algorithm and its variations" (http://citeseer.ist.psu.edu/myers86ond.html) with range compression (see Wu et al.

's "An O(NP) Sequence Comparison Algorithm").

This implementation supports an upper bound on the execution time.

Some ideas (and a bit of code) are from analyze.c, from GNU diffutils-2.7, which can be found at: ftp://gnudist.gnu.org/pub/gnu/diffutils/diffutils-2.7.tar.gz

Complexity: O((M + N)D) worst case time, O(M + N + D^2) expected time, O(M + N) space
