ABSTRACT:
A plurality of parallel compression/decompression units can be tied together to sequentially process equal amounts or sets of data from a stream of data. Hardware in the upper level of each device acts as a demultiplexer to control the acceptance of only its set of data to transfer control to permit the next device to accept data and also stores its set for compaction. Essentially identical hardware in the lower half of each device acts as a multiplexer to control the acceptance of its compacted set of data to store the compacted set and to place the compacted set into the original sequence of the stream of data for storage on the tape media. A data integrity system provides a Cyclic Redundancy Check on the data before and after each section of the process. The compacted data is decompacted immediately after compaction as a read back check to verify that the compacted data can be reconstructed when retrieved. CRC codes are stored on the media with the compacted data and are used to verify the compacted data retrieved from the media.
