TLDR
In this article, the authors propose a run-length encoding method for two or more data values, the method comprising: loading the data values into storage by forming a first data string, the data string comprising a plurality of data substrings and each data sub-string representing at least one of the values.
Abstract
A method for run-length encoding two or more data values, the method comprising: loading the data values into storage by forming a first data string, the data string comprising a plurality of data sub-strings and each data sub-string representing at least one of the data values; generating a second data string having a data sub-string corresponding to each data sub-string of the first data string, all the bits of each of the data sub-strings of the second data string having a first predetermined value if all the bits of the corresponding data sub-string of the first data string have a second predetermined value and having a third predetermined value if any of the bits of the corresponding data sub-string of the first data string has other than the second predetermined value; starting from a predetermined end of the second data string, counting the number of consecutive bits of the second data spring having the first predetermined value; and dividing the said number by the number of bits in each data sub-string.

Manipulation of data

TL;DR: A computer and a method of operating a computer which allows manipulation of data values in the context of the execution of so-called packed instructions is described in this paper. But this method is restricted to the case of a data string consisting of a plurality of substrings, each defining a particular data value or object.

High-efficiency encoding apparatus and high-efficiency decoding apparatus

TL;DR: In this paper, a high-efficiency encoding apparatus having a data division circuit, which applies 1-dimensional scanning to the orthogonal-transformed data obtained by applying Orthogonal transformation to blocked digital data in the unit of block and divides the data into run-length data and coefficient data, is presented.

Fixed rate run length limited (RLL) code string generation using length oriented arithmetic code data string expansion and data string recovery using arithmetic code compression of RLL code strings

TL;DR: In this article, a finite state machine is used with an arithmetic encoder for providing trial augends and shift amounts for RLL symbols as if it were ordinary source strings, and the encoder combines the augends with a predetermined retained portion of the generated data string.
