Very recently at SODA'15 [2], we studied maximal matching via the framework of parameterized streaming, where we sought solutions under the promise that no maximal matching exceeds k in size. In this paper, we revisit this problem and provide a much simpler algorithm for this problem. We are also able to apply the same technique to the Point Line Cover problem [3].
