Emerging Technologies 2023-10-10 v1 Information Theory math.IT

Abstract

In this review paper, we delve into the nascent field of molecular data storage, focusing on system implementations and code constructions. We start by providing an overview of basic concepts in synthetic and computational biology. Afterwards, we proceed with a review of the diverse approaches followed to implement such systems. In the process, we identify new problems in communication and coding theory, and discuss some relevant results pertaining to DNA sequence profiles, coded trace reconstruction, coding for DNA punchcard systems and coding for unique reconstruction.
