Digital Lempel Ziv 1
<algorithm> (DLZ1) A Lempel-Ziv compression algorithm which maps variable
length input strings to variable length output symbols. During compression, the
algorithm builds a dictionary of strings which is accessed by means of a hash
table. Compression occurs when input data matches a string in the table and is
replaced with the output symbol.
DLZ1 is used on Digital Linear Tape.
