Applications of data compression

[1] Audio:-

It reduces the transmission bandwidth and storage requirements of audio data.
Audio compression algorithms are implemented in software as audio codes.

Lossy audio compression algorithm provides higher compression at the cost of fidelity and are used in numerous audio applications.

[2] Video :-

It uses modern coding techniques to reduce redundancy in video data.
Most of the video compression algorithms and codes combine spatial image compression and temporal motion compensation.

[3] Genetics:-

Genetics compression algorithms are the latest generation of lossless algorithm that compress data using both conventional compression algorithms and genetic algorithms adapted to the specific datatype.

[4] Emulation:-

In order to emulate CD-based consoles such as the Play station 2, data compression is desirable to reduce huge amount of disk spaceused by ISOs.
