"Since the human genome is 3 billion base pairs long, 3 gigabytes of computer data storage space are needed to store the entire genome"

With the breakthrough 100:1 compression technique claimed by ZeoSync, we can reduce it to 30MB. Wow! then I can carry the genome of my entire family.

Note :- Their site is not available. I remember, it used to be a flashy site with lot of impressive math talk. :)

Self-extractor
Contains the total of Zeosync's work. Uses their own self-extractor, applied recursively to reduce the size to zero bytes. Now that's compression!

And my friends wonder why i think religion is such a big joke...
Oh, yes, and thanks to Alex Chiu and Zeosync, I've stopped believing in science, too.

File this story with super-efficient data compression, a story that appeared last year on Slashdot.

Oddly enough, some people are still holding out some hope for this company that has yet to give any definitive proof of this 'perfect compression.'

If anyone has any updates they wanna post, I'd be interested to see if they're actually planning some peer review stuff in the near future.

ZeoSync Corporation has significantly changed the history of compression theory in that we are now capable of introducing a multi-dimensional variable that allows for the intentional randomizing of patterned information sequences, and the encoding of single-bit-variances. This process allows for the transmission of only accelerated sequences without the traditional transmission of non-reducible sequences. This improvement allows for the transmission of hundreds of times the information across the same limited bandwidth channels and storage devices.

This is accomplished, by utilisation of existing and proven state of the art technologies, combining novel features and innovative assembly techniques.

The credibility of the system is definitively established and can be interpreted and demonstrated as being "the practical application of accepted techniques".

There are no stages in the operation of this invention that require any constituent component to perform at anything other than that being, within its capability or in accordance with its specification.

All the parts for this invention are in practical and productive everyday use. The methodology technique is accomplished by the innovative application in logical sequence of specifically selected constituent components whose performance compliment each other and function in co-operation.

Attainment is determined by the systematic mathematical application in the defined mode, of the accurately selected operational segments. In reality the achievement of this invention adheres strictly with known, accepted and proven physics principles. It is emphasised there are no new discoveries disproving accepted physics laws. To reiterate there are no physics heresies, no physics contradictions and no ambiguous claims.

Conclusion: Mr "Jasker" has invented a computer... 50 years too late.

When these guys release their product we will all be surfing at cable modem speeds over 9,600. In fact, since"Everything in an N-member set can be expressed in an N-1 set." we wont even need a network connection, we can just reconstruct our webpages by uncompressing /dev/null!

You think with all that brainpower, they could figure out that you should not have a Flash Only site.

Then again, apparently there's a company out there that basically claims to have broken Shannon's limit. Sounds about as likely as over-unity efficiency to me, but if they really pulled it off, they'll shake things up. Here's the Slashdot meta-story.

"By significantly reducing the size of data strings, we can envision products that will reduce the cost of communications and, more importantly, improve the quality of life for people around the world regardless of where they live." - from their press release

I think I'm missing something. How can the size of my pr0n files give people in a third world country a better life?

Their press release ends with the following fine print. Enjoy!

This sounds of course like complete hot air to me. I wonder what the guys at random.org think.

Is it possible, at all, to trust a company whose home page has silly javascript that resizes your browser window?

I quote from their press release:

Existing compression technologies are [...] limited in application to single or several pass reduction. ZeoSync's approach to the encoding of practically random sequences is expected to evolve into the reduction of already reduced information across many reduction iterations, producing a previously unattainable reduction capability.

Not so far from that April first joke, is it?
