Decompression engine for decompressing compressed input data that includes multiple streams of data
An electronic device that includes a decompression engine that includes N decoders and a decompressor decompresses compressed input data that includes N streams of data. Upon receiving a command to decompress compressed input data, the decompression engine causes each of the N decoders to decode a respective one of the N streams from the compressed input data separately and substantially in parallel with others of the N decoders. Each decoder outputs a stream of decoded data of a respective type for generating commands associated with a compression standard for decompressing the compressed input data. The decompressor next generates, from the streams of decoded data output by the N decoders, commands for decompressing the data using the compression standard to recreate the original data. The decompressor next executes the commands to recreate the original data and stores the original data in a memory or provides the original data to another entity.
High-density compression method and computing system
Certain implementations of the disclosed technology may include methods and computing systems for performing high-density data compression, particularly on numerical data that demonstrates various patterns, and patterns of patters. According to an example implementation, a method is provided.

Low-latency encoding using a bypass sub-stream and an entropy encoded sub-stream
A system comprises an encoder configured to entropy encode a bitstream comprising both compressible and non-compressible symbols. The encoder parses the bitstream into a compressible symbol sub-stream and a non-compressible sub-stream. The non-compressible symbol sub-stream bypass an entropy encoding component of the encoder while the compressible symbol sub-stream is entropy encoded. When a quantity of bytes of entropy encoded symbols and bypass symbols is accumulated a chunk of fixed or known size is formed using the accumulated entropy encoded symbol bytes and the bypass bytes without waiting on the full bitstream to be processed by the encoder. In a complementary manner, a decoder reconstructs the bitstream from the packets or chunks.
