Data Compression and Encryption

I was like the "Standards Committee" of everything science and technology.

I say it was my Standards too in data compression and encryption, what happened in both fields from the late 1970s to the 1990s. I was the Genius-Wizard deciding for everything science and technology.

Maybe up to early post-quantum cryptography results. They must have moved on and highly advanced by now, thanks to the Internet's availability to thousands of researchers.

I was the one who approved the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), and some early encryption algorithms and ciphers, creating several of them. That's why there is probably a Phelix cipher because I have a brother by that name. Probably my design, or his design, or others' design. He must had been taught of this Phelix algorithm he knew its secrets, but he of course must have forgotten it already. I should be tackling by now Post-Quantum Cryptography again but that might not happen, though still a possibility.

In data compression, we created the group "comp.compression" and the many compression algorithms, as well as the standard ZIP file compression format, even PKZIP, WinZIP, and WinRAR, being the real developers of Windows OSes. I remember two aunts of mine designing Windows ZIP compressor apps. I must had planned and approved a Data Compression Conference (DCC) that they again went to me in High School (1988-1992) to formally create the event. The Large Text Compression Benchmark (LTCB) of Matt Mahoney is very familiar, from when I was a child genius in the late 70s. I surmise the LTCB compressors are released by the military at these dates as scheduled from the past, or I remembered them. Some of these compression programs were actually created by my uncles or aunts, even cousins. Or their compression ideas: I was the one programming in C/C++. I was already proficient in the new C++ then, even improving the language. This is largely my work--data compression and encryption. I held everything intact. I was Starfleet, military performing for Hollywood.

My fascination with data compression is probably endless, the reason why from the late 90s I entertained some compression ideas again. I now just program in C, enough to implement my new compression ideas. The professional programmers can re-implement the compressors, for even better speed, or use a powerful optimizing compiler. I am after general-purpose compression algorithms. In 2010 or 2011, I stopped coding, but the promising compression ideas remain. I sometimes think of breakthrough compression as detrimental to data storage manufacturers, and would delete a breakthrough compression program precisely because of that. Not good for Science and research indeed.

In early College, I actually gave a compression algorithm to some Electrical Engineering (EE) students. They didn't want me to mention it to others to save their face. The algorithm was very simple but powerful. But some knew about it they congratulated me. I wasn't a Computer Engineering or Computer Science student, or Electrical or Electronics and Communications Engineering  (ECE) student so I didn't pay much attention to it. I can already buy Dr. Dobbs Journal magazine from the local magazine and book store, so I learned about LZW again. My GTBITIO library was at first very simple, enough to output single bits. GTBITIO source codes state a 2000-2003 development period. Somehow the algorithm given to the EE students was forgotten by me.

I just lament the fact that I had not received due "funding" for these algorithms at the time of their release which became popular and became Standards (already developed from the 1970s to the 80s). We wrote books too on C and C++ programming, even inventing the Java programming language supposedly for Symantec. Maybe I was too covert and stealthy that only a very few people knew about my compression and encryption work. I scheduled them for a timetable of decades.

I should have been included as founder/shareholder of Yahoo, Google, and Facebook at the time of their official startup date. My work was largely Microsoft and Google. I knew I already co-own Microsoft, Apple, IBM, and Intel.

But I still had some things to attend to, to straighten things up, as Wizard-Priest. And somehow my ownerships were gone.

Clearly, I now ask billion$ from these computer and tech companies.
