Abstract

A system and method of compressing memory for efficiently searching the memory. Values are assigned to initial memory locations and these values are logically combined to form a first group of values. This first group of values are then entered into memory locations and logically combined to form a second group of values. The second group of values are then entered into their own memory locations. By searching the second group of values, it can be determined which of the first group of values includes an initial memory location having a desired logic value.
