Abstract
Today, many institutions and organizations are facing serious problem due to the tremendously increasing size of documents, and this problem is further triggering the storage and retrieval problems due to the continuously growing space and efficiency requirements. This problem is becoming more complex with time and the increase in the size and number of documents in an organization. Therefore, there is a growing demand to address this problem. This demand and challenge can be met by developing a technique to enable specialized document imaging people to use when there is a need for storing documents images. Various techniques were developed and reported in the literature by different investigators. These techniques attempt to solve this problem to some extent but, most of the existing techniques still face the efficiency problem, in the case, the number and size of documents increase rapidly. The efficiency is further affected in the existing techniques when documents in a system are reorganized and then stored again. To handle these problems, we need special and efficient storage techniques for this type of information storage (IS) systems [1–7]. In this paper, we present an efficient storage technique for electronic documents. The proposed technique uses the Information Pixels concept to make the technique more efficient for certain image formats. In addition, we shall see how Storing Information Pixels Addresses (SIPA) method is an efficient method for document storage and as a result makes the document image storage relatively efficient for most image formats [8–12].

Even though time of execution time is shown in the table, we do not focus much on it since time may be affected by other factors like processor speed, RAM size, network reliability, Graphics memory size, etc.
