What is Introduction to Data Compression (Morgan Kaufmann Series in Multimedia Information and Systems) about?

This important new multimedia book concentrates on the significance of data compression for storing and transmitting large masses of information for all media types. Algorithms, examples, and discussions of official data compression standards for each medium allow practicing engineers and computer scientists to efficiently manipulate these growing masses of information. Amazon.com Review Khalid Sayood's textbook-style Introduction to Data Compression is the definitive guide to all kinds of compression schemes. Early chapters establish the mathematics involved in basic compression techniques, including lossless and lossy compression as well as the fundamentals of information theory that lay the groundwork for common forms of compression. (The book contains all the relevant formulas, although those who don't need such mathematical detail will still be able to understand the book.) A good portion of the book examines various compression schemes, their strengths and weaknesses, and what content they work best for. Introduction to Data Compression begins with lossless compression schemes, which lose no information during the compression/decompression process. Huffman C
