Other uses for the algorithm could be for super simple video compression, for applications where resource is tight and some low-effort bandwidth reduction would be beneficial.

Intel IPP provides optimized implementations of the common data compression algorithms, including the BZIP2*, ZLIB*, LZO*, and a new LZ4* function, as “drop-in” replacements for the original ...

The "middle-out" algorithm that has its roots in the most infamous (and probably funniest) scene in HBO's "Silicon Valley" may have been fictional, but something like it can be found in Lepton, a ...

At the same time, novel data compression techniques have emerged, optimising both the encoding efficiency and the speed of decompression, thus providing enhanced performance for real-time and ...

Google is introducing a new compression algorithm named Brotli, which it says can reduce file sizes up to 26 percent over existing solutions. The increased density is achieved by “a 2nd order ...

Google is open-sourcing a new general purpose data compression library called Zopfli that can be used to speed up Web downloads.
