Abstract

Flow-based data compression is achieved by selecting which of a set flows are compressed, which packets within each flow are compressed, and the level of effort applied to compress each packet. Compression scheduling across multiple flows excludes certain packets in respective flows from compression by way of skip patterns in a table or that are generated by a geometrically progressive skip scheme. Compression scheduling may include adjusting the level of compression effort.
