-This work is a combination of functional algorithms
-and formal methods.
-Regular expression matching and lexing has been
- widely-used and well-implemented
-in software industry.
+This work is about regular expressions and derivatives. It combines functional algorithms and their formal verification in the Isabelle/HOL theorem prover.
Theoretical results say that regular expression matching
should be linear with respect to the input.
