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 ...

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 ...

Suffix arrays serve as a fundamental tool in string processing by indexing all suffixes of a text in lexicographical order, thereby facilitating fast pattern searches, text retrieval, and genome ...

Compression is front and center at Facebook’s annual @Scale conference in San Jose. The social networking giant open-sourced a homegrown algorithm called Zstandard at the event today that is described ...

Finding efficient ways to compress and decompress data is more important than ever. Compressed data takes up less space and requires less time and network bandwidth to transfer. In cloud service code, ...

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 ...

Compression, as the name implies, squeezes or “compresses” the size of a file or data set. Compression techniques are used for voice, video, audio, text, and program data in hundreds of different ...

Imagine streaming an entire 100 Gigabyte 4K movie over a basic text message. Not just a link to where your device can find the movie...but the entire movie embedded INTO THE TEXT. No WiFi or broadband ...

Algorithm promises faster data transfer speeds and reduced Web page load times by compressing content up to 8 percent smaller than zlib. Steven Musil is a senior news editor at CNET News. He's been ...
