Comparison of recursion, dynamic programming, and
memoization
-
However, the above page does not explain how to use memoization to compute
fib(n) in O(log n) time and space. (Actually, O(log2n) if you
take into account that fib(n) has Theta(log n) digits.)

Clues to the Memoization Problem.
If you run the recursive program, there will be over 3000 recursive calls.
The memoization program makes about 500 calls. An additional cost
of the memoization program is searching the data structure for memos.
The problem cannot be
worked by standard dynamic programming, since there is no way to compute
the topological order of the subproblems in advance, nor even to know the
set of subproblems.
