During spring 2001 I wrote a seminar paper about the Burrows-Wheeler Transformation (BWT) and an implementation of the BWT in Java. The BWT can be used to efficiently compress context-sensitive data, e.g. texts or executable files. The implementation is not really intended for productive use (due to missing features like segmentation of data into blocks) but rather as study material.
