I can see that; I did a lot of similar work with signal processing algorithms. None of what I did affected asymptotic complexity at all, though. The asymptotic complexity was tied to the algorithms chosen, and changing those was an issue of trading computational performance for system performance.

I pulled it up and found it; the problem involved modeling genome sequences as strings and finding possible substrings.
