LZ4 compression algorithm on FPGA

• analysis and implementation of a LZ4 compression algorithm
• LZ4 is derived from a standard LZ77
• focused on the compression and decompression speed
• LZ4 lossless compression algorithm was analyzed
  • regarding its suitability for hardware implementation
• The first step of this research is based on software implementation of LZ4 with regard to the future hardware implementation
• second step, a simple hardware implementation of LZ4 is evaluated for bottlenecks in the original LZ4 code.
• Xilinx Virtex-6 and 7-Series FPGAs are used to obtain experimental results.
• These results are compared to the industry competitor
