US Patent 9859918 Technologies for performing speculative decompression

Technologies for performing speculative decompression include a managed node to decode a variable size code at a present position in compressed data with a deterministic decoder and concurrently perform speculative decodes over a range of subsequent positions in the compressed data, determine the position of the next code, determine whether the position of the next code is within the range, and output, in response to a determination that the position of the next code is within the range, a symbol associated with the deterministically decoded code and another symbol associated with a speculatively decoded code at the position of the next code.
