Abstract

The continuous development of the information technology and mobile communication world and the potentials available in the smart devices make these devices widely used in daily life. The mobile applications with the internet are distinguished simple, essay to use in any time/anywhere, communication between relatives and friends in different places in the world. The social application networks make these devices received several of the duplicate files daily which lead to many drawbacks such inefficient use of storage, low performance of CPU, RAM, and increasing consumption battery. In this paper, we present a good scheme to remove from the duplicate files, and we focus on image files as a common case in social apps. Our work overcomes on the above-mentioned issues and focuses to use hash function and Huffman code to build unique code for each image. Our experiments improve the performance from 1046770, 1995808 ns to 950000, and 1981154 ns in Galaxy and HUAWEI, respectively. In the storage side, the proposed scheme saves storage space from 1.9 GB, 1.24 GB to 2 GB, and 1.54 GB, respectively.
