RealTime Data Compression

 After a very fast evaluation, LZ4 has been recently integrated into the Apache project Hadoop - MapReduce . This is an important news,...

 Getting better compression ratio with LZ algorithms requires more than looking for long matches. It also requires some "parsing...

 If there is one thing that most Compression algorithms must do well and fast, it is comparing byte sequences. Finding a match depends o...

 As a first implementation of the recently proposed compressed stream format , here comes a new version of Zhuff, v0.8 . It was indeed my...

 Following my recent post , here is what i could come up with after a few minutes of thinking : 2 bytes might be enough for my need. Wel...

 I've been pretty careful at designing compression format & algorithm, but much less detailed when it comes to compressed stream f...

 I've been investigating an old idea which was occupying my mind, in order to create a fast approximative match finder for long range ...

 Time for great news. Although i've been informed of a few open-source projects or commercial application working to integrate LZ4 int...
