Tunstall Coding
In computer science and information theory, Tunstall coding is a form of entropy coding used for lossless data compression. History Tunstall coding was the subject of Brian Parker Tunstall's PhD thesis in 1967, while at Georgia Institute of Technology. The subject of that thesis was "Synthesis of noiseless compression codes" Its design is a precursor to Lempel–Ziv.

Both Tunstall codes and Lempel–Ziv codes represent variable-length words by fixed-length codes. Unlike typical set encoding, Tunstall coding parses a stochastic source with codewords of variable length.
