String matching is seen as one of the essential problems in computer science. A variety of computer applications provide the string matching service for their end users. The remarkable boost in the number of data that is created and kept by modern computational devices influences researchers to obtain even more powerful methods for coping with this problem. In this research, the Quick Search string matching algorithm are adopted to be implemented under the multi-core environment using OpenMP directive which can be employed to reduce the overall execution time of the program. English text, Proteins and DNA data types are utilized to examine the effect of parallelization and implementation of Quick Search string matching algorithm on multi-core based environment. Experimental outcomes reveal that the overall performance of the mentioned string matching algorithm has been improved, and the improvement in the execution time which has been obtained is considerable enough to recommend the multi-core environment as the suitable platform for parallelizing the Quick Search string matching algorithm.
