} Remarks<br />

- the search and the look ahead buffer have a limited size<br />

• the number of bits needed to encode pointers and length information<br />

depends on the buffers’ size<br />

• worst case: character sequences are longer than one of the buffers<br />

• typical size is 4 - 64 KB<br />

- sometimes other representations than the triple are used<br />

• next_char only if necessary (i.e. no match found)<br />

• enabling dynamic change of buffer sizes<br />
