==== abstract ====
In this talk, I will present a recent universal lossless
compressor that uses the
Burrows-Wheeler block sorting Transform
(BWT). This compression system is based  on ratelsess
Fountain codes.
For this part, I consider only the binary sources.

The second part of the talk will be based specifically
on the non-binary sources like texts.
We will look at some of the proposed approaches, and discuss their
limitations. Some ideas for solving this problem will also be presented.
