One student’s desire to get out of a final exam led to the ubiquitous algorithm that shrinks data without sacrificing information. With more than 9 billion gigabytes of information traveling the ...

CompressionX promises better compression and greener storage, but locks core features behind a monthly fee Claims of smart algorithms and 65% compression remain unverified and need independent testing ...

Computer scientist Azim Afroozeh redesigned data compression and storage so large datasets can be analyzed faster while ...

It used to be that memory and storage space were so precious and so limited of a resource that handling nontrivial amounts of text was a serious problem. Text compression was a highly practical ...

Efficient data compression and transmission are crucial in space missions due to restricted resources, such as bandwidth and storage capacity. This requires efficient data-compression methods that ...

Lossless compression is used for applications where the original data must be fully restored following decompression. Examples of applications requiring lossless compression include network data, ...
