Abstract

   This document describes how to implement certain mechanisms in
   Signaling Compression (SigComp), RFC 3320, which can significantly
   improve the compression efficiency compared to using simple per-
   message compression.

   SigComp uses a Universal Decompressor Virtual Machine (UDVM) for
   decompression, and the mechanisms described in this document are
   possible to implement using the UDVM instructions defined in RFC
   3320.
