The first three are simple encoding techniques, called: run-length, Huffman, and delta encoding. The last two are elaborate procedures that have established themselves as industry standards: LZW and ...

I’m going to propose a very simple run-length encoding scheme for our system. ... Even if you use another compression algorithm, changing your data to be mostly zeros is going to help the ...

Thanks to a new compression algorithm called Brotli, which Google introduced last September, Chrome will be able to compress data up to 26 percent more than its existing compression engine, Zopfli ...

The Intel IPP optimized implementations of the common data compression algorithms are “drop-in” replacements for the original compression code. But there is always a tradeoff. There is no “best” ...

Google has released a new data compression algorithm it hopes will make the Internet faster for everyone. Dubbed Zopfli, the open-source algorithm will accelerate data transfer speeds and reduce ...
