  2. Data compression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_compression

    This is a basic example of run-length encoding; there are many schemes to reduce file size by eliminating redundancy. The Lempel–Ziv (LZ) compression methods are among the most popular algorithms for lossless storage. [ 6 ]

  3. Data compression ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_compression_ratio

    Thus, a representation that compresses the storage size of a file from 10 MB to 2 MB yields a space saving of 1 - 2/10 = 0.8, often notated as a percentage, 80%. For signals of indefinite size, such as streaming audio and video, the compression ratio is defined in terms of uncompressed and compressed data rates instead of data sizes:

  4. File size - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_size

    File size is a measure of how much data a computer file contains or how much storage space it is allocated. Typically, file size is expressed in units based on byte. A large value is often expressed with a metric prefix (as in megabyte and gigabyte) or a binary prefix (as in mebibyte and gibibyte). [1]

  5. Extended file attributes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extended_file_attributes

    Unlike forks, which can usually be as large as the maximum file size, extended attributes are usually limited in size to a value significantly smaller than the maximum file size. Typical uses include storing the author of a document, the character encoding of a plain-text document, or a checksum , cryptographic hash or digital certificate , and ...

  6. Variable-length quantity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable-length_quantity

    A variable-length quantity (VLQ) was defined for use in the standard MIDI file format [2] to save additional space for a resource-constrained system, and is also used in the later Extensible Music Format (XMF). Base-128 is also used in ASN.1 BER encoding to encode tag numbers and object identifiers. [3]

  7. Flat-file database - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flat-file_database

    A flat-file database is a database stored in a file called a flat file. Records follow a uniform format, and there are no structures for indexing or recognizing relationships between records. The file is simple. A flat file can be a plain text file (e.g. csv, txt or tsv), or a binary file. Relationships can be inferred from the data in the ...
