Abstract :
The original authors have designed rule based compression algorithms (RBE) and compared them with the well known Lempel Ziv family of algorithms (LZ) [1992/1993]. They concluded that their algorithms are superior to LZs (from 50 to 230% better). This comparison is unfair. The reasons for this conclusion are given
