the difference between the formats of bootloader

For TI DSPs,there are different file fomat used for bootloader,such as .hex and .ais.

1    I wonder what's the difference between .hex and .ais.

2    It seems when the .out is transfered to .ais,the size will be reduced.What is the principle of .ais used for compressing the size?
