An open source, patent- and royalty-free compression format. The compression algorithm is a Burrows–Wheeler transform followed by a move-to-front transform and finally Huffman coding. .F, .?XF [e] Freeze/melt [3] QNX4, Unix-like and DOS: Old compressor for QNX4 OS. The compression algorithm is a modified LZSS, with an adaptive Huffman coding ...
bzip2 is a free and open-source file compression program that uses the Burrows–Wheeler algorithm.It only compresses single files and is not a file archiver.It relies on separate external utilities such as tar for tasks such as handling multiple files, and other tools for encryption, and archive splitting.

DCT is the basis for JPEG, a lossy compression format which was introduced by the Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG) in 1992. [35] JPEG greatly reduces the amount of data required to represent an image at the cost of a relatively small reduction in image quality and has become the most widely used image file format.
In February 2021 Zamzar expanded their tool and announced a new file compression service. [10] The compressor is visually similar to the conversion tool with a drag and drop download feature. As with the converter, users have the option to subscribe for a paid plan if they wish to compress multiple or larger files than the free service permits [11]
In computing, Deflate (stylized as DEFLATE, and also called Flate [1] [2]) is a lossless data compression file format that uses a combination of LZ77 and Huffman coding. It was designed by Phil Katz, for version 2 of his PKZIP archiving tool. Deflate was later specified in RFC 1951 (1996). [3]

The emphasis was on historical research, and it seemed obvious at the time that records should be arranged and catalogued in a manner that would "facilitate every kind of scholarly use". [ 17 ] [ 16 ] To support research, artificial systematic collections, often arranged by topic, were established and records were catalogued into these schemes ...
