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 ...

The amount of data that the big cloud computing providers now store is staggering, so it’s no surprise that most store all of this information as compressed data in some form or another — just like ...

This is what run-length encoding requires. Correspondingly, delta encoding followed by Huffman and/or run-length encoding is a common strategy for compressing signals. LZW compression is named after ...

Optimizing data compression methods has become more critical than ever for cloud storage, data management, and streaming applications. Working with compressed data reduces network bandwidth, data ...

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 ...

Microsoft is open-sourcing its cloud-compression algorithm and optimized hardware implementation for cloud storage. Microsoft is contributing that algorithm, known as ""=""> plus the associated ...

How do we define information? How do we quantify the amount of information that any piece of data contains? In computers, we measure information in bits and bytes (or more accurately now Megabytes and ...

When the PlayStation 5 (PS5) and Xbox Series X were announced, it was very difficult to find the difference between the two by comparing the specifications. However, the PS5 uses overwhelmingly better ...
