Data compression
Professor David Salomon This book is devoted to the first of these factors, namely data compression. It explains why data can be compressed, it outlines the principles of the various approaches to compressing data, and it describes several compression algorithms, some of which are general, while others are designed for a specific type of data. The goal of the book is to introduce the reader to the chief approaches, methods, and techniques that are currently employed to compress data. The main aim is to start with a clear overview of the principles behind this field, to complement this view with several examples of important compression algorithms, and to present this material to the reader in a coherent manner.
