Information theory provides the fundamental framework for understanding and designing data compression algorithms. At its core lies the concept of entropy, a quantitative measure that reflects the ...

Storage is the most difficult problem in information technology. Why? Because entropy is always working to destroy our data. There's only one strategy that works.

In the concluding part of this 3-part review of the H.264 video compression standard, Kate Huber, Peter de Konink and Piet Nieuwets of Siqura discuss the transform, quantisation and entropy encoding - ...

The chip combines ZeroPoint’s entropy-based algorithms with a number of other performance optimization methods. Notably, it stores information that was used recently in an onboard cache.
