Standard ECMA-159
Data Compression for Information Interchange
- Binary Arithmetic Coding Algorithm
(December 1991)
This Ecma Standard specifies an algorithm for the reduction of
the number of bits required to represent information. This process
is known as Data Compression. The algorithm uses binary arithmetic
coding. The algorithm provides lossless compression and is intended
for use in information interchange.
