Zlib Home Site zlib Home Site http://zlib.net/ A Massively Spiffy Yet Delicately Unobtrusive Compression Library (Also Free, Not to Mention Unencumbered by Patents) (Not Related to the Linux zlibc Compressing File-I/O Library) Welcome to the zlib home page, web pages originally created by Greg Roelofs and maintained by Mark Adler . If this page seems suspiciously similar to the PNG Home Page , rest assured that the similarity is completely coincidental. No, really. zlib was written by Jean-loup Gailly (compression) and Mark Adler (decompression). Current release: zlib 1.2.6 January 29, 2012 Version 1.2.6 has many changes over 1.2.5, including these improvements: gzread() can now read a file that is being written concurrently gzgetc() is now a macro for increased speed Added a 'T' option to gzopen() for transparent writing (no compression) Added deflatePending() to return the amount of pending output Allow deflateSetDictionary() and inflateSetDictionary() at any time in raw mode deflatePrime() can now insert bits in the middle of the stream ./configure now creates a configure.log file with all of the results Added a ./configure --solo option to compile zlib with no dependency on any libraries Fixed a problem with large file support macros Fixed a bug in contrib/puff Many portability improvements You can also look at the complete Change Log . Version 1.2.5 fixes bugs in gzseek() and gzeof() that were present in version 1.2.4 (March 2010). All users are encouraged to upgrade immediately. Version 1.2.4 has many changes over 1.2.3, including these improvements: 1 of 5 2012-02-07 17:00 zlib Home Site http://zlib.net/ Fixed bugs in adler32_combine() , compressBound() , and deflateBound() Wholesale replacement of gz * functions with faster versions As part of that, added gzbuffer() , gzoffset() , gzclose_r() , and gzclose_w() functions Faster Z_HUFFMAN_ONLY and Z_RLE compression for images and other specialized compression Added flush options Z_BLOCK to deflate() and Z_TREES to inflate() for finer control Added inflateReset2() and inflateMark() functions, the latter to aid in random access applications Added LFS (Large File Summit) support for 64-bit file offsets and many other portability improvements Updated examples in examples/ and updated third-party contributions in contrib/ You can also look at the complete Change Log . If you are using libxml version 2.7.6 or earlier, you will need to update libxml to version 2.7.7 or later before installing zlib version 1.2.4 or later. libxml 2.7.6 and earlier made unnecessary assumptions about the undocumented internal structure of zlib that were changed in zlib 1.2.4 and result in libxml crashing. This was fixed in libxml 2.7.7. Version 1.2.3 (July 2005) eliminates potential security vulnerabilities in zlib 1.2.1 and 1.2.2, so all users of those versions should upgrade immediately . The following important fixes are provided in zlib 1.2.3 over 1.2.1 and 1.2.2: Eliminate a potential security vulnerability when decoding invalid compressed data Eliminate a potential security vulnerability when decoding specially crafted compressed data Fix a bug when decompressing dynamic blocks with no distance codes Fix crc check bug in gzread() after gzungetc() Do not return an error when using gzread() on an empty file Versions 1.1.4 (March 2002) and later eliminate an earlier potential security vulnerability, see details here . Any software that is linked against or derived from an earlier version of zlib should be upgraded immediately. A partial list of over 500 applications using zlib is given here ( uncompressed ). Canonical URL: http://zlib.net/ (US) zlib is designed to be a free , general-purpose, legally unencumbered -- that is, not covered by any patents -- lossless data-compression library for use on virtually any computer hardware and operating system. The zlib data format is itself portable across platforms. Unlike the LZW compression method used in Unix compress (1) and in the GIF image format, the compression method currently used in zlib essentially never expands the data. (LZW can double or triple the file size in extreme cases.) zlib's memory footprint is also independent of the input data and can be reduced, if necessary, at some cost in compression. A more precise, technical discussion of both points is available on another page . zlib was written by Jean-loup Gailly (compression) and Mark Adler (decompression). Jean-loup is also the primary author/maintainer of gzip (1), the author of the comp.compression FAQ list and the former maintainer of Info-ZIP 's Zip ; Mark is also the author of gzip's and UnZip 's main decompression routines and was the original author of Zip. Not surprisingly, the compression algorithm used in zlib is essentially the same as that in gzip and Zip, namely, the `deflate' method that originated in PKWARE 's PKZIP 2.x. 2 of 5 2012-02-07 17:00 zlib Home Site http://zlib.net/ Mark and Jean-loup can be reached by e-mail at . Please read the FAQ and the manual before asking us for help. We are getting too many questions which already have an answer in the zlib documentation. Greg, Mark and/or Jean-loup will add some more stuff here when they think of something to add. For now this page is mainly a pointer to zlib itself and to related links. Note that the deflate and zlib specifications both achieved official Internet RFC status in May 1996, and zlib itself was adopted in version 1.1 of the Java Development Kit (JDK), both as a raw class and as a component of the JAR archive format . The lovely zlib-vise image above was provided courtesy of Bruce Gardner, art director of Dr. Dobb's Journal . It appears in Mark Nelson's article in the January 1997 issue (see below).

Jiri Kremser Date 05.11.2017 Number of pages 70+4 Language English Abstract Rise of microservices and distributed applications in containerized deployments are putting increasing amount of burden to the monitoring systems. They push the storage requirements to provide suitable performance for large queries. In this paper we present the changes we made to our distributed time series database, Hawkular-Metrics, and how it stores data more effectively in the Cassandra. We show that using our methods provides significant space savings ranging from 50 to 95% reduction in storage usage, while reducing the query times by over 90% compared to the nominal approach when using Cassandra. We also provide our unique algorithm modified from Gorilla compression algorithm that we use in our solution, which provides almost three times the throughput in compression with equal compression ratio.

  • Intel® Quick Sync Video and Ffmpeg Installation and Validation Guide
    White paper Intel® Quick Sync Video and FFmpeg Installation and Validation Guide Introduction Intel® Quick Sync Video technology on Intel® Iris™ Pro Graphics and Intel® HD graphics provides transcode acceleration on Linux* systems in FFmpeg* 2.8 and later editions. This paper is a detailed step-by-step guide to enabling h264_qsv, mpeg2_qsv, and hevc_qsv hardware accelerated codecs in the FFmpeg framework. For a quicker overview, please see this article. Performance note: The *_qsv implementations are intended to provide easy access to Intel hardware capabilities for FFmpeg users, but are less efficient than custom applications optimized for Intel® Media Server Studio. Document note: Monospace type = command line inputs/outputs. Pink = highlights to call special attention to important command line I/O details. Getting Started 1. Install Intel Media Server Studio for Linux. Download from software.intel.com/intel-media-server- studio. This is a prerequisite for the *_qsv codecs as it provides the foundation for encode acceleration. See the next chapter for more info on edition choices. Note: Professional edition install is required for hevc_qsv. 2. Get the latest FFmpeg source from https://www.FFmpeg.org/download.html. Intel Quick Sync Video support is available in FFmpeg 2.8 and later editions. The install steps outlined below were verified with ffmpeg release 3.2.2 3. Configure FFmpeg with “--enable –libmfx –enable-nonfree”, build, and install. This requires copying include files to /opt/intel/mediasdk/include/mfx and adding a libmfx.pc file. More details below. 4. Test transcode with an accelerated codec such as “-vcodec h264_qsv” on the FFmpeg command line.

  • Concepts and Approaches for Mars Exploration1
    June 24, 2012 Concepts and Approaches for Mars Exploration1 ‐ Report of a Workshop at LPI, June 12‐14, 2012 – Stephen Mackwell2 (LPI) Michael Amato (NASA Goddard), Bobby Braun (Georgia Institute of Technology), Steve Clifford (LPI), John Connolly (NASA Johnson), Marcello Coradini (ESA), Bethany Ehlmann (Caltech), Vicky Hamilton (SwRI), John Karcz (NASA Ames), Chris McKay (NASA Ames), Michael Meyer (NASA HQ), Brian Mulac (NASA Marshall), Doug Stetson (SSECG), Dale Thomas (NASA Marshall), and Jorge Vago (ESA) Executive Summary Recent deep cuts in the budget for Mars exploration at NASA necessitate a reconsideration of the Mars robotic exploration program within NASA’s Science Mission Directorate (SMD), especially in light of overlapping requirements with future planning for human missions to the Mars environment. As part of that reconsideration, a workshop on “Concepts and Approaches for Mars Exploration” was held at the USRA Lunar and Planetary Institute in Houston, TX, on June 12‐14, 2012. Details of the meeting, including abstracts, video recordings of all sessions, and plenary presentations, can be found at http://www.lpi.usra.edu/meetings/marsconcepts2012/. Participation in the workshop included scientists, engineers, and graduate students from academia, NASA Centers, Federal Laboratories, industry, and international partner organizations. Attendance was limited to 185 participants in order to facilitate open discussion of the critical issues for Mars exploration in the coming decades. As 390 abstracts were submitted by individuals interested in participating in the workshop, the Workshop Planning Team carefully selected a subset of the abstracts for presentation based on their appropriateness to the workshop goals, and ensuring that a broad diverse suite of concepts and ideas was presented.
