| comp., MS | adaptive compression | tilpasset komprimering (Data compression software that continually analyzes and compensates its algorithm, depending on the type and content of the data and the storage medium) |
| el., sec.sys. | compression element of a cable gland | kompresjonselement |
| comp., MS | compression exclusion list | liste over filer som ikke komprimeres (A list of files that are not compressed when capturing an image using ImageX. Some files do not shrink in size when compressed. When capturing an image, you can identify these files to ImageX to save time. These files will still be captured, but ImageX will not attempt to compress them) |
| comp., MS | compression level | komprimeringsnivå (The amount by which an image's file size is reduced. Higher compression levels yield smaller file sizes and shorter download times) |
| comp., MS | compression utility | komprimeringsverktøy (A software program that reduces a file's size for storage on a disk. If a compressed file is too large to fit onto a single disk, the compression utility copies it onto multiple disks) |
| cables | gas compression cable | kabel med ytre gasstrykk |
| comp., MS | hardware compression | maskinvarekomprimering (A feature available on some tape devices that automatically compresses the data that is being stored on the device. This is usually an option that is turned on or off in a backup program) |
| comp., MS | lossless compression | komprimering uten datatap (The process of compressing a file such that, after being compressed and decompressed, it matches its original format bit for bit. Text, code, and numeric data files must be compressed using a lossless method; such methods can typically reduce a file to 40 percent of its original size) |
| comp., MS | modem compression | modemkomprimering (A technique used to reduce the number of characters transmitted without losing data content. The transmitting modem compresses the data and the receiving computer or modem decompresses the data back to its original state) |
| comp., MS | XPress compression | XPress-komprimering (A Microsoft proprietary compression algorithm highly tuned for speed. It achieves ZIP-level compression ratios and is currently the server-side compression implementation of choice within Microsoft) |
