Joint Source-Channel Coding in Dictionary Methods of Lossless Data Compression Limitations on memory and resources of communications systems require powerful data compression methods. Decompression of compressed data stream is very sensitive to errors which arise during transmission over noisy channels, therefore error correction coding is also required. One of the solutions to this problem is the application of joint source and channel coding. This paper contains a description of methods of joint source-channel coding based on the popular data compression algorithms LZ'77 and LZSS. These methods are capable of introducing some error resiliency into compressed stream of data without degradation of the compression ratio. We analyze joint source and channel coding algorithms based on these compression methods and present their novel extensions. We also present some simulation results showing usefulness and achievable quality of the analyzed algorithms.

Toward strong demand for very high-speed I/O for processors, physical performance growth of hardware I/O speed was drastically increased in this decade. However, the recent Big Data applications still demand the larger I/O bandwidth and the lower latency for the speed. Because the current I/O performance does not improve so drastically, it is the time to consider another way to increase it. To overcome this challenge, we focus on lossless data compression technology to decrease the amount of data itself in the data communication path. The recent Big Data applications treat data stream that flows continuously and never allow stalling processing due to the high speed. Therefore, an elegant hardware-based data compression technology is demanded. This paper proposes a novel lossless data compression, called ASE coding. It encodes streaming data by applying the entropy coding approach. ASE coding instantly assigns the fewest bits to the corresponding compressed data according to the number of occupied entries in a look-up table. This paper describes the detailed mechanism of ASE coding. Furthermore, the paper demonstrates performance evaluations to promise that ASE coding adaptively shrinks streaming data and also works on a small amount of hardware resources without stalling or buffering any part of data stream.
