TurboTax. TurboTax is a software package for preparation of American and Canadian income tax returns, produced by Intuit. TurboTax is a market leader in its product segment, competing with H&R Block Tax Software and TaxAct. [ 1] TurboTax was developed by Michael A. Chipman of Chipsoft in 1984 and was sold to Intuit in 1993. [ 2][ 3]
Data compression. In information theory, data compression, source coding, [ 1] or bit-rate reduction is the process of encoding information using fewer bits than the original representation. [ 2] Any particular compression is either lossy or lossless. Lossless compression reduces bits by identifying and eliminating statistical redundancy.
ZPAQ is an open source command line archiver for Windows and Linux. It uses a journaling or append-only format which can be rolled back to an earlier state to retrieve older versions of files and directories. It supports fast incremental update by adding only files whose last-modified date has changed since the previous update.
Run-length encoding ( RLE) is a form of lossless data compression in which runs of data (consecutive occurrences of the same data value) are stored as a single occurrence of that data value and a count of its consecutive occurrences, rather than as the original run. As an imaginary example of the concept, when encoding an image built up from ...
The Lempel–Ziv–Markov chain algorithm ( LZMA) is an algorithm used to perform lossless data compression. It has been under development since either 1996 or 1998 by Igor Pavlov [ 1] and was first used in the 7z format of the 7-Zip archiver. This algorithm uses a dictionary compression scheme somewhat similar to the LZ77 algorithm published ...
The first such phone was the Nokia 5510 released in 2002 which also plays MP3s. However, this phone was a commercial failure [citation needed] and such phones with integrated music players did not gain mainstream popularity until 2005 when the trend of having AAC as well as MP3 support continued. Most new smartphones and music-themed phones ...
Turbo codes are used in 3G / 4G mobile communications (e.g., in UMTS and LTE) and in ( deep space) satellite communications as well as other applications where designers seek to achieve reliable information transfer over bandwidth- or latency-constrained communication links in the presence of data-corrupting noise.
