Byte addressing might still need to access 8-bit data over its 64-bit address line, and have the data returned in the bottom 8 bits of its longer data line. Byte addressable memory refers to architectures where data can be accessed and addressed in units that are narrower than the bus. An eight-bit processor like the Intel 8008 addresses eight bits, but as this is the full width of the bus, this is regarded as word-addressable. The 386SX, which addresses memory in 8-bit units but can fetch and store it 16 bits at a time, is termed byte-addressable. Bytes have not always meant
Lempel–Ziv–Markov chain algorithm just adds the distance to the front even if already present in the list and SHORTREP and LONGREP[0] don't alter the list. The length is encoded as follows:<br> As in LZ77, the length is not limited by the distance, because copying from the dictionary is defined as if the copy was performed byte by byte, keeping the distance constant. Distances are logically 32-bit and distance 0 points to the most recently added byte in the dictionary. The distance encoding starts with a 6-bit "distance slot", which determines how many further bits are needed. Distances are decoded as a binary concatenation
