Abstract
One embodiment provides a method comprising receiving a plurality of encoded and compressed data blocks, decoding the data blocks, and decompressing the data blocks utilizing a plurality of processor sets. Each processor set is assigned a data block to decompress. The processor sets decompress in parallel to exploit inter-block parallelism. Each processor set comprises one or more processors that collaborate in decompressing an assigned data block to exploit intra-block parallelism. The method further comprises generating a final uncompressed output sequence based on uncompressed data blocks resulting from the decompressing.
