A linear error correcting code is a subspace of a finite-dimensional space over a finite field with a fixed coordinate system. Such a code is said to be locally recoverable with locality $r$ if, for every coordinate, its value at a codeword…

Abundant high-rate (n, k) minimum storage regenerating (MSR) codes have been reported in the literature. However, most of them require contacting all the surviving nodes during a node repair process, resulting in a repair degree of d=n-1.…

This work focuses on sequential locally recoverable codes (SLRCs), a special family of locally repairable codes, capable of correcting multiple code symbol erasures, which are commonly used for distributed storage systems. First, we…

Locally repairable codes (LRCs) have recently been widely used in distributed storage systems and the LRCs with $(r,\delta)$-locality ($(r,\delta)$-LRCs) attracted a lot of interest for tolerating multiple erasures. Ge et al. constructed…

Locally repairable codes(LRCs) play important roles in distributed storage systems(DSS). LRCs with small locality have their own advantages since fewer available symbols are needed in the recovery of erased symbols. In this paper, we prove…

In an $(n,k,d)$ rack-aware storage model, the system consists of $n$ nodes uniformly distributed across $\bar{n}$ successive racks, such that each rack contains $u$ nodes of equal capacity and the reconstructive degree satisfies…

In large scale distributed storage systems (DSS) deployed in cloud computing, correlated failures resulting in simultaneous failure (or, unavailability) of blocks of nodes are common. In such scenarios, the stored data or a content of a…

We introduce a new family of Fountain codes that are systematic and also have sparse parities. Given an input of $k$ symbols, our codes produce an unbounded number of output symbols, generating each parity independently by linearly…
