Description

A data compression method which is specifically tailored for scientific data can simultaneously tackle the storage, networking and I/O bottlenecks. This talk will introduce three novel techniques for data compression of specific relevance to CERN-style scientific data, and show how the correct choice of data compression technique can even help the scientific method. This is intended to be a light hearted talk, and will not involve heavy mathematics.
