Abstract
In commenting on Dijkstra and Taris, the author sketches three main topics. First, he discusses the general concept and nature of alignment algorithms for sequence data. He then talks about the character and utility of the Dijkstra/Taris algorithm, a particular implementation of the alignment approach to sequence analysis. The article closes with a discussion of the general types of algorithms appropriate to stage theories, to career patterns, to common subsequences, and to continuous data.
