摘要： The adaptive compression technique improves the Lempel-Ziv (LZ) technique because it reduces the required storage space (18) and transmission time with transferring data (22). Pre-filled compression dictionaries (48) are utilized to resolve prior problems with the Lempel-Ziv technique where compression software starts with an empty compression dictionary and little compression is attained until dictionary has been filled with sequences common in the data being compared. The compression dictionary (48) is pre-filled with letter sequences, words and/or phrases that are commonly found in the compressed area. They may be used in the pre-filled dictionary where they are determined by sampling text data from the same text genre. Initially, multiple pre-filled dictionaries (52) may be utilized by the software, where the most appropriate dictionary for maximum compression is identified and used to compress current data. These modifications are made to any of the known Lempel-Ziv compression techniques based on the variants detailed in 1977 and 1978 articles by Ziv and Lempel.

摘要： A system and method for scheduling the receipt of desired movies and other forms of data from a network which simultaneously distributes many sources of such data to many customers, as in a cable television system. Customer profiles are developed for the recipient describing how important certain characteristics of the broadcast video program, movie or other data are to each customer. From these profiles, an 'agreement matrix' (908) is calculated by comparing the recipient's profiles to the actual profiles of the characteristics of the available video programs, movies, or other data. The agreement matrix (908) thus characterizes the attractiveness of each video program, movie, or other data to each prospective customer. 'Virtual' channels are generated from the agreement matrix (908) to produce a series of video or data programming which will provide the greatest satisfaction to each customer. Feedback paths (1020, 1024) are also provided so that the customer's profiles and/or the profiles of the video programs or other data may be modified to reflect actual usage, and so that the data downloaded to the customer's set top terminal (620) may be minimized. Kiosks (figure 11) are also developed which assist customers in the selection of videos, music, books, and the like in accordance with the customer's objective profiles.

摘要翻译： 一种用于调度接收到来自它同时分发搜索数据来源有很多很多的客户，在有线电视系统中的网络所需的电影和其他形式的数据的系统和方法。客户机已为接收方开发的描述多么重要的某些特性 广播视频节目，电影或其它数据给每一位客户。 从综合配置文件，以“协议矩阵”是通过比较收件人的配置文件的可用视频节目，电影，或其他数据的特性的实际配置特性计算。 该协议矩阵THUS刻画每一个视频节目，电影或其它数据给每个潜在客户的吸引力。 “虚拟”通道从协议矩阵生成产生一系列视频或数据编程的whichwill提供了最大的满意度，以每一位客户。 因此反馈路径提供这样做的客户的个人资料和/或视频节目或其他数据的配置文件可以被修改，以反映实际使用情况。 所以亭开发出帮助客户的视频，音乐，书籍的选择，并在与客户的目标轮廓雅舞等。
