Information: - A file archiver is a computer program that combines a number of files together into one archive file, or a series of archive files, for easier transportation or storage. File archivers may employ lossless data compression in their archive formats to reduce the size of the archive. - The rzip program is huge - scale data compression software designed around initial LZ77 - style string matching on a 900 MB dictionary window , followed by bzip2 - based Burrows -- Wheeler transform ( BWT ) and entropy coding ( Huffman ) on 900 kB output chunks . - The bit is a basic unit of information in computing and digital communications. A bit can have only one of two values, and may therefore be physically implemented with a two-state device. These values are most commonly represented as either a . The term "bit" is a portmanteau of binary digit. In information theory, the bit is equivalent to the unit "shannon", named after Claude Shannon. - In signal processing, data compression, source coding, or bit-rate reduction involves encoding information using fewer bits than the original representation. Compression can be either lossy or lossless. Lossless compression reduces bits by identifying and eliminating statistical redundancy. No information is lost in lossless compression. Lossy compression reduces bits by removing unnecessary or less important information. The process of reducing the size of a data file is referred to as data compression. In the context of data transmission, it is called source coding (encoding done at the source of the data before it is stored or transmitted) in opposition to channel coding. - Signal processing is an enabling technology that encompasses the fundamental theory, applications, algorithms, and implementations of processing or transferring information contained in many different physical, symbolic, or abstract formats broadly designated as "signals". It uses mathematical, statistical, computational, heuristic, and linguistic representations, formalisms, and techniques for representation, modelling, analysis, synthesis, discovery, recovery, sensing, acquisition, extraction, learning, security, or forensics. - bzip2 is a free and open-source file compression program that uses the BurrowsWheeler algorithm. It only compresses single files and is not a file archiver. It is developed and maintained by Julian Seward. Seward made the first public release of bzip2, version 0.15, in July 1996. The compressor's stability and popularity grew over the next several years, and Seward released version 1.0 in late 2000. - Lossless compression is a class of data compression algorithms that allows the original data to be perfectly reconstructed from the compressed data. By contrast, lossy compression permits reconstruction only of an approximation of the original data, though this usually improves compression rates (and therefore reduces file sizes). - Julian Seward is a compiler writer and Free Software contributor who lives in Cambridge, UK. He is commonly known for creating the bzip2 compression tool, as well as the valgrind memory debugging toolset founded in 2000. In 2006, he won a second Google-O'Reilly Open Source Award for his work on Valgrind.

Information: - Scott Meacham ( born 1963 ) was the 17th State Treasurer of Oklahoma , having served from June , 2005 to January , 2011 , having been appointed to that post by then - Governor Brad Henry following the resignation of then - State Treasurer Robert Butkin . Meacham was subsequently elected to a full four - year term as State Treasurer by defeating the Republican nominee , Howard Barnett , Jr. , in the November 2006 general election . He declined to seek reelection in 2010 , and joined the Oklahoma City law firm of Crowe & Dunlevy upon completion of his term as State Treasurer . In December , 2012 , he was appointed as President and CEO of i2e , an Oklahoma City - based non-profit corporation which provides services to startup companies throughout the state . - Oklahoma (Cherokee: "Asgaya gigageyi" / ; or transliterated from English as ("oalahoma"), Pawnee: "Uukuhuuwa", Cayuga: "Gahnawiyogeh") is a state located in the South Central United States. Oklahoma is the 20th-most extensive and the 28th-most populous of the 50 United States. The state's name is derived from the Choctaw words "okla" and "humma", meaning "red people". It is also known informally by its nickname, "The Sooner State", in reference to the non-Native settlers who staked their claims on the choicest pieces of land before the official opening date, and the Indian Appropriations Act of 1889, which opened the door for white settlement in America's Indian Territory. The name was settled upon statehood, Oklahoma Territory and Indian Territory were merged and Indian was dropped from the name. On November 16, 1907, Oklahoma became the 46th state to enter the union. Its residents are known as "Oklahomans", or informally "Okies", and its capital and largest city is Oklahoma City. - Charles Bradford "Brad" Henry (born July 10, 1963) is an American politician who was the 26th Governor of Oklahoma. A member of the Democratic Party, he was elected governor in 2002. Henry won re-election for a second term on November 7, 2006 with 66% of the vote.
