We present a high-rate $(n,k,d=n-1)$-MSR code with a sub-packetization level that is polynomial in the dimension $k$ of the code. While polynomial sub-packetization level was achieved earlier for vector MDS codes that repair systematic…

Maximum distance separable (MDS) codes are widely used in distributed storage, but naively repairing a single failure in an $(n,k)$ MDS code requires downloading the full contents of $k$ surviving nodes. Minimum storage regenerating (MSR)…

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…

We consider the rack-aware storage system where $n=\bar{n}u$ nodes are organized in $\bar{n}$ racks each containing $u$ nodes, and any $k=\bar{k}u+u_0~(0\leq u_0<u)$ nodes can retrieve the original data file. More importantly, the…
