General purpose compression tools "GPCT" fails in these challenges. We present a novel method to improve the compression of GPCT. It consists of three pre-processing steps then applying GPCT. Validation results show improving the efficiency of gzip, Bzip2 and 7z by 6.59%, 7.12% and 5.69% respectively, with ten times faster than the best available methods UR - http://172.23.153.220/th.pdf ER -
