Images transmitted over the world wide web are an excellent example of why data compression is important. Suppose we need to download a digitized color photograph over a computer's 33.6 kbps modem. If ...

In a tiny office in West Palm Beach, Fla., a handful of clunky computers are crunching through a software problem that many consider unsolvable. These are the offices of ZeoSync, a start-up that made ...

Trajectory data compression and simplification techniques have emerged as essential tools for managing the ever‐increasing volumes of spatio‐temporal data generated by GPS devices and other ...

The rapid expansion of data volumes in modern applications has intensified the need for efficient methods of storing and retrieving information. Contemporary research in data compression focuses on ...

There are two categories of data compression. The first reduces the size of a single file to save storage space and transmit faster. The second is for storage and transmission convenience. The JPEG ...

“Irregular applications, such as graph analytics and sparse linear algebra, exhibit frequent indirect, data-dependent accesses to single or short sequences of elements that cause high main memory ...

With more and more embedded systems being connected, sending state information from one machine to another has become more common. However, sending large packets of data around on the network can be ...

Take advantage of the GZip and Brotli compression methods to reduce the size of string data and improve performance in your .NET Core applications. When developing applications you will often need to ...

Facebook Inc.’s software team has spent the last two years working on a way to compress application code with a view to keeping app sizes more manageable, ultimately coming up with a new technique ...

I read with enthusiasm Todd Sundsted’s “Zip Your Data and Improve the Performance of Your Network-Based Applications,” (JavaWorld, November 1998) but I was a little disappointed. When I read the title ...
