[Dominic Szablewski] was tinkering around with compressing RGB images, when he stumbled upon idea of how to make a simple lossless compression algorithm, resulting in the Quite OK Image Format, which ...

ZFS compression is the free storage upgrade my NAS needed, but only for some files.

Compression is performed by a program that uses a formula or algorithm to determine how to shrink the size of the data. For instance, an algorithm may represent a string of bits-- or 0s and 1s -- with ...

This paper discusses the hardware implementation of an encoder and a decoder for the QOI lossless RGB image format. Some results are given for the AMD/Xilinx architecture, reaching over 800 Mpixels/s ...

Google has announced that it has developed a new open source encoder called "Guetzli" for compression of JPEG files. The algorithm used by the company allows it to compress JPEGs by up to 35% more ...

Every day we interact with a lot of files from our computer. Although we don’t often think about it, we work with reports and documents in PDF format, we download videos and music to enjoy our free ...
