Erasure coding for distributed storage: An overview

SB Balaji, MN Krishnan, M Vajha, V Ramkumar… - Science China …, 2018 - Springer
In a distributed storage system, code symbols are dispersed across space in nodes or
storage units as opposed to time. In settings such as that of a large data center, an important …

A family of optimal locally recoverable codes

I Tamo, A Barg - IEEE Transactions on Information Theory, 2014 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
A code over a finite alphabet is called locally recoverable (LRC) if every symbol in the
encoding is a function of a small number (at most r) other symbols. We present a family of …

Optimal locally repairable codes and connections to matroid theory

I Tamo, DS Papailiopoulos… - IEEE Transactions on …, 2016 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Petabyte-scale distributed storage systems are currently transitioning to erasure codes to
achieve higher storage efficiency. Classical codes, such as Reed-Solomon (RS), are highly …

Universal and dynamic locally repairable codes with maximal recoverability via sum-rank codes

U Martínez-Peñas… - IEEE Transactions on …, 2019 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Locally repairable codes (LRCs) are considered with equal or unequal localities, local

A construction of maximally recoverable codes with order-optimal field size

H Cai, Y Miao, M Schwartz… - IEEE Transactions on …, 2021 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
