The act of compressing ,
or state of being compressed .

Compression of thought ." --

2 . (
Computers )
reduction of the space required for storage (
of binary data )
by an algorithm which converts the data to a smaller number of bits while preserving the information content .
The act of compressing [
3 ].
Note :
Compression may be {
lossless compression },
in which all of the information in the original data is preserved ,
and the original data may be recovered in form identical to its original form ;
or {
lossy compression },
in which some of the information in the original data is lost ,
and decompression results in a data form slightly different from the original . {
Lossy compression }
is used ,
for example ,
to compress audio or video recordings ,
and sometimes images ,
where the slight differences in the original data and the data recovered after {
lossy compression }
may be imperceptable to the human eye or ear .
The {
JPEG }
format is produced by a {
lossy compression }
algorithm .

(Or "compaction ") The coding of data to save
storage space or transmission time . Although data is already
coded in digital form for computer processing , it can often be
coded more efficiently (using fewer bits ). For example ,
{run -length encoding } replaces strings of repeated characters
(or other units of data ) with a single character and a count .
There are many compression {algorithms } and utilities .
Compressed data must be decompressed before it can be used .
The standard {Unix } compression utilty is called {compress }
though {GNU }'s superior {gzip } has largely replaced it . Other
compression utilties include {pack }, {zip } and {PKZIP }.
When compressing several similar files , it is usually better
to join the files together into an {archive } of some kind
(using {tar } for example ) and then compress them , rather than
to join together individually compressed files . This is
because some common compression {algorithms } build up tables
based on the data from their current input which they have
already compressed . They then use this table to compress
subsequent data more efficiently .
See also {TIFF }, {JPEG }, {MPEG }, {Lempel -Ziv Welch },
"{lossy }", "{lossless }".

2 . Reducing the dynamic range of an audio signal ,
making quiet sounds louder and loud sounds quieter . Thus ,
when discussing digital audio , the preferred term for reducing
the total amount of data is "compaction ". Some advocate this
term in all contexts .
