Riassunto

Computing Reviews (Review of previous edition): Data compression is one of the most important fields and tools in modern computing. From archiving data to CD ROMs, and from coding theory to image processing, many facets of modern computing rely upon data compression. This new edition of "Data Compression" provides a comprehensive reference for the many different types and methods of compression. Included are a detailed and helpful taxonomy, description of most common methods, and discussions on the use and comparative benefits of methods and description of "how to" use them. The presentation is organized into the main branches of the field of data compression: run length encoding, statistical methods, dictionary-based methods, image compression, audio compression, and video compression.

Recensione

 From a review of a previous edition: "A wonderful treasure chest of information; spanning a wide range of data compression methods, from simple text compression methods to the use of wavelets in image compression. It is unusual for a text on compression to cover the field so completely." --Computing Reviews
