Abstract: The Jazz file format is intended to be a replacement for the JAR file format when used for storage and distribution of Java programs. A Jazz file is compressed to a degree that far exceeds what is possible with a JAR file. The smaller size of the Jazz format permits faster transmission speeds over a network and has the additional benefit of conserving disk storage. The compression is achieved as a combination of different data compression methods, adapted to suit the characteristics of... (Update)

...size using a compression scheme specifically tailored towards Java class files. In a follow up paper Bradley, Horspool, and Vitek [6] further improve the compression ratio of their scheme and extend its applicability to Java packages (jar files) A better compression...

...persistent memory, without any loading step. Programs compressed using Lempel Ziv [12] Huffman [6] or JAVA dedicated algorithm [8, 1] have to be decompressed to be understandable by the JAVA CARD virtual machine. This unpacking step is not feasible in a smart card, due...
