Provides professionals and students with a path to faster data transmission times and reduced transmission costs with its in-depth examination of practical and easy-to-implement data-compression techniques. Retaining all data compression fundamentals from the first two editions, the Third Edition expands to include information on the structure and operation of several popular compression algorithms new to the market, including Microcom Networking Protocol (MNP) Class 5 data compression and MNP Class 7 Enhanced Data Compression. Numerous methods to enhance the efficiency of both character-oriented and statistical compression techniques are included as is a new chapter on character compression that discusses three methods to be used to obtain the special compression indicating character.
