Abstract

A method for providing in-place safe decompression of a data stream includes utilizing a stored offset to allocate a memory space for a decompression operation. The stored offset represents a maximum offset by which a write pointer position of an output stream exceeds a read pointer position for a corresponding input stream during in-place decompression of the compressed data stream.
