Method and system for arranging numeric data for compression

摘要

A computer-implemented method for arranging numeric data for compression is described. The method is implemented using a computing device in communication with a memory and a measurement device. The method includes receiving, by the computing device and from the measurement device, numeric data that includes a sequence of numbers, each number including at least a first byte followed by a second byte. The method additionally includes arranging the first bytes into a first contiguous set, arranging the second bytes into a second contiguous set, and storing the first contiguous set and the second contiguous set in a file in the memory, such that the first contiguous set is contiguous with the second contiguous set.

1. A computer-implemented method for arranging floating point numeric data for compression, said method implemented using a computing device in communication with a memory and a measurement device, said method comprising:
receiving, by the computing device and from the measurement device, numeric data that includes a plurality of floating point numbers in a sequence, each floating point number including at least a first byte followed by a second byte; arranging the first byte of each floating point number into a first set, wherein the first bytes are arranged contiguous to each other in the first set, and a position of the first byte of each floating point number in the first set matches said floating point number's position in the sequence; arranging the second byte of each floating point number into a second set, wherein the second bytes are arranged contiguous to each other in the second set, and a position of the second byte of each floating point number in the second set matches said floating point number's position in the sequence; and storing the first set and the second set in a file in the memory, such that the first set is contiguous with the second set.
