People store large quantities of data in their electronic devices and transfer some of this data to others, whether for professional or personal reasons. Data compression methods are thus of the ...

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 ...

The European Space Agency has developed a new compression system, initially designed to be used on so-called ‘smart’ space and satellite missions and telemetry to and from the craft. The ESA says its ...

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 ...

The recent revolution in genomic sequencing has opened new fields of study, but it’s also produced a DNA data deluge that has led to almost too much genomic information for researchers to handle. In a ...
