Asymmetric numeral systems

Very interesting idea: Asymmetric numeral systems: entropy coding combining speed of Huffman coding with compression rate of arithmetic coding.

Error Resilience in Compressed Data

I've found very interesting PhD thesis "Error Resilience in Compressed Data — Selected Topics" by Marek Biskup; author concentrated on decoding broken messages encoded with Huffman codes. Additionally parallel decoding of Huffman-coded messages is shown.
