2. 7-Zip - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/7-Zip

   7-Zip is a free and open-source file archiver, a utility used to place groups of files within compressed containers known as "archives". It is developed by Igor Pavlov and was first released in 1999. It is developed by Igor Pavlov and was first released in 1999.

3. Solid compression - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid_compression

   Compressed file formats often feature both compression (storing the data in a small space) and archiving (storing multiple files and metadata in a single file). One can combine these in two natural ways: compress the individual files, and then archive into a single file; archive into a single data block, and then compress.

4. 7z - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/7z

   7z is a compressed archive file format that supports several different data compression, encryption and pre-processing algorithms. The 7z format initially appeared as implemented by the 7-Zip archiver. The 7-Zip program is publicly available under the terms of the GNU Lesser General Public License.

   Another benefit is that files are combined into one archive file which has less overhead for managing or transferring. There are numerous compression algorithms available to losslessly compress archived data; some algorithms are designed to work better (smaller archive or faster compression) with particular data types.

6. Lempel–Ziv–Markov chain algorithm - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lempel–Ziv–Markov_chain...

   The 7-Zip implementation uses several variants of hash chains, binary trees and Patricia trees as the basis for its dictionary search algorithm. In addition to LZMA, the SDK and 7-Zip also implements multiple preprocessing filters intended to improve compression, ranging from simple delta encoding (for images) and BCJ for executable code. It ...

7. ZIP (file format) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ZIP_(file_format)

   .ZIP files are archives that store multiple files. ZIP allows contained files to be compressed using many different methods, as well as simply storing a file without compressing it. Each file is stored separately, allowing different files in the same archive to be compressed using different methods.

8. Comparison of file archivers - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_file_archivers

   7-Zip includes read support for .msi, cpio and xar, plus Apple's dmg/HFS disk images and the deb/.rpm package distribution formats; beta versions (9.07 onwards) have full support for the LZMA2-compressed .xz format.

9. Self-extracting archive - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-extracting_archive

   A single file format, such as 7z, can support multiple different compression algorithms, including LZMA, LZMA2, PPMd, and BZip2. [ citation needed ] Decompression utilities must be able to handle both the file format and the algorithm used when expanding self-extracting or standard archives.
