Space-Saving Strategies for Computing Δ-points Kun-Mao Chao (趙坤茂) Department of Computer Science and Information Engineering National Taiwan University, Taiwan http://www.csie.ntu.edu.tw/~kmchao

Δ-points S-(i, j): the best score of a path from (0, 0) to (i, j). S+(i, j): the best score of a path from (i, j) to (M, N). Δ-points: S-(i, j) + S+(i, j) >= Δ S - S +
