Abstract

A method and computer-readable memory device that enable processing of a first memory image comprising a plurality of compressed sub-blocks and uncompressed sub-blocks to produce a second memory image comprising contents of the first memory image arranged as a plurality of memory blocks. The memory blocks of the second memory image may be independently decompressible, to enable more efficient updating of an electronic device.
