Background technology
Along with the application of new material and the development of new technology, the VLSI technology makes great progress, and this is that polycaryon processor (Chip Multi-Processor, lay a good foundation by development CMP).CMP is integrated in a plurality of calculating kernels in the processor chips exactly, thereby improves computing capability., by the equity of calculating kernel whether CMP can be divided into isomorphism multinuclear and heterogeneous polynuclear.
In the years to come, the number of handling nuclear will get more and more, but, along with processing check figure order integrated in the single chip is more and more, increase processing check figure order and be difficult to bring bigger performance boost, general processor also is difficult to satisfy the fusion application demand gradually simultaneously, and increasing polycaryon processor turns to the SoC framework, just the heterogeneous polynuclear framework.Increasing research institution has carried out the research towards heterogeneous multi-nucleus processor, and these researchs have comprised the every aspect of heterogeneous multi-nucleus processor system, as handling the optimization of nuclear structure; Thread on the heterogeneous multi-nucleus processor distributes and migration; And at CPU+DSP polycaryon processor structural research of looking Audio Processing etc.And some commercial processor have begun to adopt the isomery system, perhaps at some special-purpose accelerators of specific applied customization.
Bzip2 is higher than the compression efficiency of traditional gzip or ZIP, but its compression speed is slower.From this point, it is very similar to some other compression algorithm of nearest appearance.Other different is with RAR or ZIP etc., and bzip2 is a data tool of compression, rather than the filing instrument, and it and gzip are similar in this.Program itself does not comprise the instrument that is used for a plurality of files, encryption or document cutting, on the contrary need use external tool as tar or Gnu PG according to the tradition of UNIX.
Bzip2 uses Burrows-Wheeler transform to convert the character string that repeats the character string of same letter to, handles with move-to-front transform then, uses Huffman encoding to compress at last.All data blocks all are equirotal plain text data pieces in bzip2, and they can be selected with the order line variable, use any bit sequence that obtains from the decimal representation of π to identify into compressed text then.
Though the compression efficiency of bzip2 is than gzip or zip height, its slower compression speed has limited the scope of application.Along with the development of VLSI technology, the number of transistors purpose increases on the chip, can quicken its compression process for the special-purpose accelerator of bzip2 customization.
