ABSTRACT:
A data representation method is disclosed wherein the length information of an arbitrary string of data bits along with the string of data bits is represented using the least number of bytes or words or other fixed-size bit groups. In accordance with the present invention, an arbitrary string of data bits is arranged sequentially in fixed-size bit groups, starting with a first group and ending with a last group each group having equal number of bit positions, whereby in the last group one or more bit positions remain unoccupied by data bits and a predesignated bit value is used to identify the bit positions not occupied by data bits.
