The longest common subsequence (LCS) problem is a classic computer science problem. For the essential problem of computing LCS between two arbitrary sequences s1 and s2, this paper proposes an algorithm taking O(n+r) space and O(r+n2) time, where r is the total number of elements in the set (i,j)|s1[i]=s2[j]. The algorithm can be more efficient than relevant classical algorithms in specific ranges of r.

Molecular biologists rely very heavily on computer science algorithms as research tools. The process of finding the longest common subsequence of two DNA sequences has a wide range of applications in modern bioinformatics. Genetics databases can hold enormous amounts of raw data, for example the human genome consists of approximately three billion DNA base pairs. The processing of this gigantic volume of data necessitates the use of extremely efficient string algorithms. This paper introduces a space and time effective technique for retrieving the longest common subsequence of DNA sequences.
