Abstract
In this paper, a new compression method for constant
removal from very large scientific and statistical databases is
presented.
The new method combines the best features from several classical
constant removal compression methods.
The result, both analytical and experimental, shows that the
method is superior to these popular methods in terms of
compression effectiveness and eficient searching on the
compressed data.
In addition to the development, analysis and validation of this
new method, this paper also presents analysis of several traditional
constant removal methods for the purpose of analytic comparison.
A large collection of experiments have been designed and run to
observe and validate the behavior of the compression methods.
Another contribution of the paper is that performance
characteristics are identified for different compression methods
under different data properties assumptions.
The result can be used as a basis of selecting compression methods
by matching the properties of the database at hand to the data
properties experimented in the paper.
