In data communications it is desirable to have faster transfer rates at lower costs. Data compression addresses these demands by reducing the amount of data that must be transferred over a medium of ...

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 ...

Many methods of lossy compression have been developed; however, a family of techniques called transform compression has proven the most valuable. The best example of transform compression is embodied ...
