Hi, Over the last few weeks we've been experimenting with a way to get better compression for HTTP streams using a dictionary-based compression scheme, where a user agent obtains a site-specific dictionary that then allows pages on the site that have many common elements to be transmitted much more quickly. We have a paper that we wrote to describe this idea, which I have put online here: http://groups.google.com/group/SDCH The specifics in the paper are just one possibility, we're not attached to the exact model described above. So far our experiments have been quite encouraging, so we'd love to work with other browser and server vendors to flesh this out. Is this something that anyone would be interested in? Your advices are very welcomed. Thank you, SDCH team, Google Inc.
