  • Bijective BWT (7 Comments)

    David Scott has written a bijective BWT transform, which brings all the advantages of bijectiveness to BWT based compressors. Among other things, making BWT more suitable for compression-before-encryption and also give (slightly) better compression.

  • Asymmetric Binary System (116 Comments)

    Jarek Duda’s “Asymmetric Binary System” promises to be an alternate to arithmetic coding, having all the advantages, but being much simpler. Matt has coded a PAQ based compressor using ABS for back-end encoding. Update: Andrew Polar has written an alternate implementation of ABS.

  • Precomp: More Compression for your Compressed Files (3 Comments)

    So many of today’s files are already compressed (using old, outdated algorithms) that newer algorithms don’t even get a chance to touch them. Christian Schneider’s Precomp comes to rescue by undoing the harm.

Pegasus Web Services, Inc. Begins Development Of Its HyperDrive High Data Volume Modem Technology

Posted by Sachin Garg on 24th June 2005 | Permanent Link

In a press release, Pegasus Web Services, Inc. announced that it is creating the HyperDrive Modem(TM) with its patent-pending Digital Data Compression Method. This algorithm adds a third dimension to data transportation and storage(like storing/transporting parallel data on serial devices).

“This invention is expected to significantly change the way we use computers in the future. We will no longer be constrained by the box; i.e. the number of slots in the computer backplane. The network becomes the computer backplane. The total computing power available is the sum of the parts of all computers on the network,” noted Jeff Fries, President of Pegasus Web Services, Inc.
