Some of your friends have gotten into the burgeoning field of time-series data mining, in which one looks for patterns in sequences of events that occur over time. purchases at stock exchanges--what’s being bought-- are one source of data with a natural ordering in time. given a long sequence s of such events, your friends want an efficient way to detect certain "patterns" in them--for example, they may want to know if the four events buy yahoo, buy ebay, buy yahoo, buy oracle occur in this sequence s, in order but not necessarily consecutively. they begin with a collection of possible events (e.g., the possible’ transactions) and a sequence s of n of these events. a given event may occur multiple times in s (e.g., yahoo stock may be bought many times in a single sequence s). we will say that a sequence s’ is a subsequence of s if there is a way to delete certain of the events from s so that the remaining events, in order, are equal to the sequence s’. so, for example, the sequence of four events above is a subsequence of the sequence buy amazon, buy yahoo, buy ebay, buy yahoo, buy yahoo, buy oracle their goal is to be able to dream up short sequences and quickly detect whether they are subsequences of s. so this is the problem they pose to you: give an algorithm that takes two sequences of even~s--s’ of length m and s of length n, each possibly containing an event more than once--and decides in time o(m n) whether s’ is a subsequence of s

The instruction ishl (shift left integer) exists in jvm but not in ijvm. it uses the top two values on the stack, replacing the two with a single value, the result. the sec- ond-from-top word of the stack is the operand to be shifted. its content is shifted left by a value between 0 and 31, inclusive, depending on the value of the 5 least signifi- cant bits of the top word on the stack (the other 27 bits of the top word are ignored). zeros are shifted in from the right for as many bits as the shift count. the opcode for ishl is 120 (0x78).a. what is the arithmetic operation equivalent to shifting left with a count of 2? b. extend the microcode to include this instruction as a part of ijv.
