Many applications such as Wireless Email, Remote Data Storage and Remote PC Management Tools have a need to transmit lots of data over relatively limited bandwidth or over short amounts of time. In these applications, the majority of the data consists of common electronic documents such as Microsoft Office documents.
Speedy throughput makes a difference in both cost and favorable user experience.
Two measures are provided for ICT which illustrates the tradeoff between speed and quality that can be achieved with ICT's products. A reference to performance gains over the common Zip compression algorithm which doesn't have image quality adjustability. DXP achieves this via the utilization of sophisticated models for each data element within a Microsoft Office file format to create a compression algorithm tailored to that file format. For files containing images such as JPEG, GIF and PNG formats, Document-Xpress achieves high compression via algorithms tailored to that specific file type. In addition, the customer can adjust a setting which effectively trades off between Transfer Speed and Image Quality, thereby allowing them to optimize performance for their specific application and end users.
