Abstract: The present application describes methods and systems for compressing and/or decompressing data. As blocks of data are processed, the processed blocks are placed into a circular buffer at a compressor and indexed based on patterns of data present in the processed blocks. A circular buffer is maintained at the decompressor so that the decompressor circular buffer is consistent with the compressor circular buffer. When a new block of data is processed, the compressor checks the index to the circular buffer to determine whether the new block of data contains a pattern that is redundant with a pattern in one or more blocks of data that have already been processed. If a redundancy is detected, the compressor informs the decompressor of the redundancy and provides information allowing the decompressor to reconstruct the redundant pattern from the decompressor's circular buffer. In this way, redundant data need not be retransmitted or stored.

Abstract: An all terrain or straddle type vehicle is provided with an air intake system having an air intake pipe with reduced length thereby avoiding unnecessary vibration which may adversely affect the fuel-to-air ratio of the engine, thereby improving engine performance. Also an inlet end of the air intake pipe is positioned so that the vehicle's capability for traversing water of a predetermined depth is improved. The height of the inlet end of the intake pipe is greater than the predetermined depth of the water to protect against water entering the air intake pipe due to encountering a water wave created in front of the vehicle that has a depth greater than the predetermined depth of the water. Additionally, openings in rear fenders of the vehicle channel intake air to both a radiator/fan assembly and the air intake system.
