In this paper, we continue the study of Maximally Recoverable (MR) Grid Codes initiated by Gopalan et al. [SODA 2017]. More precisely, we study codes over an $m \times n$ grid topology with one parity check per row and column of the grid…
Maximally recoverable local reconstruction codes (MR LRCs for short) have received great attention in the last few years. Various constructions have been proposed in literatures. The main focus of this topic is to construct MR LRCs over…
Aiming to recover the data from several concurrent node failures, linear $r$-LRC codes with locality $r$ were extended into $(r, \delta)$-LRC codes with locality $(r, \delta)$ which can enable the local recovery of a failed node in case of…
A $q$-ary $(n,k,r)$ locally repairable code (LRC) is an $[n,k,d]$ linear code over $\mathbb{F}_q$ such that every code symbol can be recovered by accessing at most $r$ other code symbols. The well-known Singleton-like bound says that $d \le…

We consider the design of regenerating codes for distributed storage systems that enjoy the property of local, exact and uncoded repair, i.e., (a) upon failure, a node can be regenerated by simply downloading packets from the surviving…
We consider a communication problem in which an update of the source message needs to be conveyed to one or more distant receivers that are interested in maintaining specific linear functions of the source message. The setting is one in…
Locally repairable codes (LRCs) are a class of erasure codes that are widely used in distributed storage systems, which allow for efficient recovery of data in the case of node failures or data loss. In 2014, Tamo and Barg introduced…
In this paper, we provide explicit constructions for a class of exact-repair regenerating codes that possess a layered structure. These regenerating codes correspond to interior points on the storage-repair-bandwidth tradeoff, and compare…
A novel coding scheme for exact repair-regenerating codes is presented in this paper. The codes proposed in this work can trade between the repair bandwidth of nodes (number of downloaded symbols from each surviving node in a repair…
We consider the locally repairable codes (LRC), aiming at sequential recovering multiple erasures. We define the (n,k,r,t)-SLRC (Sequential Locally Repairable Codes) as an [n,k] linear code where any t'(>= t) erasures can be sequentially…
Constructions of optimal locally repairable codes (LRCs) achieving Singleton-type bound have been exhaustively investigated in recent years. In this paper, we consider new bounds and constructions of Singleton-optimal LRCs with minmum…
This paper presents a novel construction of $(n,k,d=n-1)$ access-optimal regenerating codes for an arbitrary sub-packetization level $\alpha$ for exact repair of any systematic node. We refer to these codes as general sub-packetized because…
Codes for storage systems aim to minimize the repair locality, which is the number of disks (or nodes) that participate in the repair of a single failed disk. Simultaneously, the code must sustain a high rate, operate on a small finite…
The study of the fundamental limits of information systems is a central theme in information theory. Both the traditional analytical approach and the recently proposed computational approach have significant limitations, where the former is…
Maximum-distance separable (MDS) array codes with high rate and an optimal repair property were introduced recently. These codes could be applied in distributed storage systems, where they minimize the communication and disk access required…
In an $[n,k,d]$ linear code, a code symbol is said to have locality $r$ if it can be repaired by accessing at most $r$ other code symbols. For an $(n,k,r)$ \emph{locally repairable code} (LRC), the minimum distance satisfies the well-known…
We consider the rack-aware storage system where \(n\) nodes are organized in \(\bar{n}\) racks each containing \(u\) nodes, and any \(k\) nodes can retrieve the stored file. Moreover, any single node erasure can be recovered by downloading…
Finding the largest code with a given minimum distance is one of the most basic problems in coding theory. In this paper, we study the linear programming bound for codes in the Lee metric. We introduce refinements on the linear programming…
High-rate minimum storage regenerating (MSR) codes are known to require a large sub-packetization level, which can make meta-data management difficult and hinder implementation in practical systems. A few maximum distance separable (MDS)…
