2. Lempel–Ziv–Markov chain algorithm - Wikipedia

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

   Lempel–Ziv–Markov chain algorithm. The Lempel–Ziv–Markov chain algorithm (LZMA) is an algorithm used to perform lossless data compression. It has been under development since either 1996 or 1998 by Igor Pavlov [citation needed] and was first used in the 7z format of the 7-Zip archiver. This algorithm uses a dictionary compression scheme ...

3. bzip2 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bzip2

   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 for tasks such as handling multiple files, encryption, and archive-splitting. bzip2 was initially released in 1996 by Julian Seward.

4. Data compression - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_compression

   Data compression. In information theory, data compression, source coding, [1] or bit-rate reduction is the process of encoding information using fewer bits than the original representation. [2] Any particular compression is either lossy or lossless. Lossless compression reduces bits by identifying and eliminating statistical redundancy.

5. LZ77 and LZ78 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LZ77_and_LZ78

   LZ77 and LZ78 are the two lossless data compression algorithms published in papers by Abraham Lempel and Jacob Ziv in 1977 [1] and 1978. [2] They are also known as LZ1 and LZ2 respectively. [3] These two algorithms form the basis for many variations including LZW, LZSS, LZMA and others. Besides their academic influence, these algorithms formed ...

6. Lempel–Ziv–Oberhumer - Wikipedia

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

   The original "lzop" implementation, released in 1996, was developed by Markus Franz Xaver Johannes Oberhumer, based on earlier algorithms by Abraham Lempel and Jacob Ziv. The LZO library implements a number of algorithms with the following characteristics: Higher compression speed compared to DEFLATE compression. Very fast decompression.

7. List of archive formats - Wikipedia

   Unix-like. RPM files consist of metadata concatenated with (usually) a cpio archive. Newer RPM systems also support other archives, as cpio is becoming obsolete. cpio is also used with initramfs. .shar. application/x-shar. Shell archive. Unix-like. A self-extracting archive that uses the Bourne shell (sh). .LBR.
