In this paper, we present an advanced analysis of near optimal algorithms that use limited space to solve the frequency estimation, heavy hitters, frequent items, and top-k approximation in the bounded deletion model. We define the family…

The high repair cost of (n,k) Maximum Distance Separable (MDS) erasure codes has recently motivated a new class of codes, called Regenerating Codes, that optimally trade off storage cost for repair bandwidth. On one end of this spectrum of…
