In a tiny office in West Palm Beach, Fla., a handful of clunky computers are crunching through a software problem that many consider unsolvable. These are the offices of ZeoSync, a start-up that made ...

Engineers at the University of California have developed a new data structure and compression technique that enables the ...

Trajectory data compression and simplification techniques have emerged as essential tools for managing the ever‐increasing volumes of spatio‐temporal data generated by GPS devices and other ...

The rapid expansion of data volumes in modern applications has intensified the need for efficient methods of storing and retrieving information. Contemporary research in data compression focuses on ...

Images transmitted over the world wide web are an excellent example of why data compression is important. Suppose we need to download a digitized color photograph over a computer's 33.6 kbps modem. If ...

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 ...

There are two categories of data compression. The first reduces the size of a single file to save storage space and transmit faster. The second is for storage and transmission convenience. The JPEG ...
