Carnot machines work according to cycles of compression and expansion.
Data compression algorithms can be classified in two categories: those with data loss and those without data loss.
Temperature is mean kinetic energy, not energy over volume; compression heats a gas by doing work on it; and a gas that expands without doing work does not cool.
Fossilization is the result of the compression of organisms by the earth during a lot of time.
Einstein had posited that large gravitational forces could stretch light, much like the compression and stretching of sound waves we perceive with the change of pitch of a passing train.

In this new study, callers to emergency services reporting a suspected heart attack were randomly told either to do full CPR, with chest compression and blowing air into the patient's mouth — rescue breathing — or do just chest compression.
What sets video streaming apart from other data transfers at the TMC (transportation management center) is that video streaming requires the transfer of significantly more data. The amount of data transferred varies based on the video resolution, compression algorithm, bitrate, etc. but can vary from a few megabytes (MB) to hundreds of MB per frame.

Due to the presence of long-range correlations in language [21], [22] it is not possible to compute accurate measures of the entropy by estimating block probabilities directly. More efficient nonparametric methods that work even in the presence of long-range correlations are based on the property that the entropy of a sequence is a lower bound to any lossless compressed version of it [15]. Thus, in principle, it is possible to estimate the entropy of a sequence by finding its length after being compressed by an optimal algorithm. In our analysis, we used an efficient entropy estimator derived from the Lempel-Ziv compression algorithm that converges to the entropy [19], [23], [24], and shows a robust performance when applied to correlated sequences [25] (see Materials and Methods).
