Abstract

For most of the computerized application used presently data. Compression is an essential requirement. Compression is the process which saves memory space by reducing the number of bits used to represent certain message. Different data compression techniques exist for compression of different data types. Data compression can be classified as lossless or lossy compression. Run Length Encoding, Huffman Coding, and Shannon Fano Coding techniques for lossless data compression are discussed in this paper. The article is concluded by doing a comparison of these techniques.

Key Word: Lossless compression, Lossy compression, Run Length Encoding, Huffman Coding, Shannon Fano Coding
