This appears to be a paper written for satisfying a CS Master's degree requirement. If you are looking for a survey on this topic, this is probably a better starting point: https://arxiv.org/abs/1504.00616
The authors website says they are studying for a PhD. Could it be their PhD thesis? http://www.cs.umd.edu/~amitc/publications.html
11 pages is way too short for a PhD thesis. And on the bottom of the first page, it says:

"Submitted for the fulfillment of requirement of a Scholarly Paper for Master of Science without thesis option."

When was this written?

I personally hate non-dated preprints or technical reports. Only way to guess is to use max(date(ppaper) for paper in references), which may or may not be close the the actual date of writing.
