For enabling an efficient storage of received compressed data, an additional lossless compression is applied to the compressed data to obtain binary digits. The lossless compression is configured to result, on an average, in a higher percentage of binary digits having a first value than binary digits having a second value. The obtained binary digits are caused to be stored in a memory, wherein the storage of binary digits of the first value require less energy than or an equal amount of energy as the storage of binary digits of the second value.

Operating a memory

Flash memories are most popular nonvolatile, low cost and high density memories. However, one of problems in the flash memory is large consuming energy for writing the data. Then, we proposed a novel coding algorithm for reduction of the consuming energy and confirmed the effect of the algorithm with the numerical simulations.
