Data compression research.

In current electronic systems the amount of power needed by the memory components can represent a large percentage of overall power requirements, and while modern DRAM memories offer very low idle power states, the reduction in active power is much more modest. Motivated by these observations, this paper presents a system architecture in which a hardware lossless data compressor/decompressor is connected to the application processor present in the same chip
