  2. 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:

  3. Data compression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_compression

    Data compression aims to reduce the size of data files, enhancing storage efficiency and speeding up data transmission. K-means clustering, an unsupervised machine learning algorithm, is employed to partition a dataset into a specified number of clusters, k, each represented by the centroid of its points. This process condenses extensive ...

  4. List of archive formats - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_archive_formats

    Based on PAQ, RZM, CSC, CCM, and 7zip. The format consists of a PAQ, RZM, CSC, or CCM compressed file and a manifest with compression settings stored in a 7z archive. .uha UHarc DOS/Windows: DOS/Windows: Yes A high compression rate archive format originally for DOS. .war WAR: Multiple Multiple Yes Web Application archive (Java-based web app) .wim

  5. 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 such as tar for tasks such as handling multiple files, and other tools for encryption, and archive splitting.

  6. ZIP (file format) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ZIP_(file_format)

    ZIP is an archive file format that supports lossless data compression.A ZIP file may contain one or more files or directories that may have been compressed. The ZIP file format permits a number of compression algorithms, though DEFLATE is the most common.

  7. KGB Archiver - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KGB_Archiver

    Written in Visual C++ by Tomasz Pawlak, KGB Archiver is designed to achieve a very high compression ratio. It has ten levels of compression, from very weak to maximum. However, at higher compression levels, the time required to compress a file increases significantly. [3] As a consequence, the program uses memory and CPU intensively.

  8. Disk compression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disk_compression

    A disk compression software utility increases the amount of information that can be stored on a hard disk drive of given size. Unlike a file compression utility, which compresses only specified files—and which requires the user to designate the files to be compressed—an on-the-fly disk compression utility works automatically through resident software without the user needing to be aware of ...

  9. Executable compression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Executable_compression

    Executable compression can be used to prevent direct disassembly, mask string literals and modify signatures. Although this does not eliminate the chance of reverse engineering, it can make the process more costly. A compressed executable requires less storage space in the file system, thus less time to transfer data from the file system into ...
