Google has introduced a new data compression algorithm, which the company believes will make the Internet faster for all users. Known as Zopfli, the open-source algorithm is said to increase data ...

Part 2 benchmarks the compression algorithms. It will be published July 20. Analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) and digital-to-analog converters (DACs) are generating a huge and rapidly growing flood ...

Everyone has unzipped files via an algorithm called Deflate that has been used for data compression for 20 years. Now Facebook says it has something better called Zstandard.

Lossless data compression plays a vital role in addressing the growth in data volumes, real-time processing demands, and bandwidth constraints that modern systems face. Dr. Sotiropoulou will deliver ...

Alongside data compression algorithms—which reduce the size of data while preserving essential information—these techniques underpin a range of applications from bioinformatics to large-scale ...

Microsoft is open-sourcing and releasing to the Open Compute Project its 'Project Zipline' data-compression algorithm, plus related hardware specs and source code.

Even if you use a “real” compression algorithm, they will almost always perform better if the data to compress has more repeating sequences.

ADCs and DACs are generating a flood of sampled data that are creating high-speed bottlenecks on busses and in networks. Part 1 of this article described the use of compression algorithms that take ...
