Abstract
An adaptive compression mechanism that dynamically selects compression algorithms applied to network application traffic to improve performance. One implementation includes an arbitration scheme that reduces the impact on computing resources required to analyze different compression algorithms for different network applications. The adaptive compression functionality of the present invention can be integrated into network application traffic management or acceleration systems.
