Compression is ubiquitous in consumer electronics. Modern compression algorithms exploit the limitations of human hearing and vision to offer compression ratios from 4:1 for speech and more than 30:1 ...

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, ...

“Irregular applications, such as graph analytics and sparse linear algebra, exhibit frequent indirect, data-dependent accesses to single or short sequences of elements that cause high main memory ...

Scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory have developed a novel artificial ...

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 ...

Fuzzy transforms (F-transforms) are a class of fuzzy approximation methods that utilise fuzzy partitions to represent and reconstruct functions through a collection of weighted average values. By ...

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 ...

Many of today's embedded systems are providing more sophisticated solutions to a wide variety of applications and industries. With this increase in sophistication, there is a corresponding increase in ...

The “data deluge” is as familiar to IT professionals as it is cliché, but what we are encountering today is very different. Will our typical response be enough? Often hyped, the data deluge has been ...

IBM has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Storwize, a privately held provider of real-time data compression technology. Storwize, based in Marlborough, Mass., builds solutions intended to ...
