ABSTRACT A method according to the present invention utilizes a data processing means comprising a plurality of data stores, and a temporary store for each such data store, stores for a dimness value and a positional value. The method determines a particular match between a plurality of events of a query and a plurality of events of a stored data base. The method utilizes a priorly formed array of data values, each data value representing the number of event positions between the juxta- position of an event in the query and a corresponding event in the stored data base. A group of one or more data values is provided for each different type of query event. Each different group is stored in a different data store, with the data values thereof arranged in monotonic order from a first end, preferably with the largest data value at the first end. In the method, the data processor detects the largest data value at the first end of the groups. The detected data value is transferred from the corresponding group to the corresponding temporary store, replacing a previous data value, if any, in the temporary store. The data values are then combined to form a dimness value, representing the sum of the absolute values of the algebraic differences taken between the data value which is detected and different ones of the data values existing at the first ends of the groups in the data stores and in the temporary stores. If the dimness value is smaller than that contained in the dimness value store, the value in the dimness value store is replaced with the newly formed dimness value, and the value in the posi- tional store is replaced with the detected data value.
