Abstract (en)

[origin: WO8603037A1] The prior art compression of a data in computer memory and transmission of compressed data has proved to be uneconomical and too slow. The present process uses dimensional co-ordinates of the place of the data as its value for coding purposes. The coding process, as shown by the flow chart of Fig. 2C, is based on a compression of the distances between "on" and "off" states of bits of data bytes as they progress through stages (34, 35, 36, 37 and 38) and a decoding process of Fig. 2C, as shown by other stages (40, 41, 42 and 43). The coding and decoding processes are controlled by a repeating control stage (39) that increases the compression of the data as many times as ordered. By using the repeated coding of the dimensioned co-ordinates of the place of the data in the transmitted/received data in the computer system or in the transmission system, the volume of the computer memory is increased and the communications are done more economically.
