Compression

Up to Glossary

This Definition applies to: Any version.

Compression is useful because it helps reduce the consumption of resources, such as disk space or transmission bandwidth. The design of data compression tools involve trade-offs between various factors, including the degree of compression, the amount of distortion introduced, and the computational resources required to compress and uncompress the data.
