| abstract |
System(s) and method(s) are provided for data management and data processing. For example, various embodiments may include systems and methods relating to relatively larger groups of data being selected with comparable or better performing selection results (e.g. high data redundancy elimination and/or average chunk size). In various embodiments, the system(s) and method(s) may include, for example a data group, block, or chunk combining technique and/or a data group, block, or chunk splitting technique. Various embodiments may include a first standard or typical data grouping, blocking, or chunking technique and/or data group, block or chunk combining technique and/or a data group, block, or chunk splitting technique. Exemplary system(s) and method(s) may relate to data hashing and/or data elimination. Embodiments may include a look-ahead buffer and determine whether to emit small chunks or large chunks based on characteristics of underlying data and/or particular application of the invention (e.g. for backup). |
