ABSTRACT:
Large integers may be stored according to byte-stable variable-length encoding systems and methods, eliminating the need to store many leading-zero bits in large integers. Such a byte-stable variable-length integer encoding scheme may represent identical sequences of numbers in a consistent byte pattern within a byte stream, preserving the redundancy of the data and allowing for improved compression rates.
