Abstract

See full text

Compressing graphic data for a first computer system, e.g. an emulated system, on a second computer system. For each scanline of the graphic data for the first computer system, a number of colors present on the scanline are counted. A new color palette for the scanline is formed at a reduced representation. Then, a representation of each color of each pixel on the scanline is converted to the new palette. The scanline is then run-length encoded. The graphic data is compressed so that it can be, for example, transmitted between a client (e.g. an X client) and a server (e.g. an X server) and conserve network bandwidth.
