Two widely studied models of multiple-node repair in distributed storage systems are centralized repair and cooperative repair. The centralized model assumes that all the failed nodes are recreated in one location, while the cooperative one…
In the literature, most of the known high-rate $(n,k)$ MDS array codes with the optimal repair property only support a single repair degree (i.e., the number of helper nodes contacted during a repair process) $d$, where $k\le d\le n-1$.…
Maximum distance separable (MDS) codes have the optimal trade-off between storage efficiency and fault tolerance, which are widely used in distributed storage systems. As typical non-MDS codes, simple regenerating codes (SRCs) can achieve…

Maximum distance separable (MDS) codes are optimal error-correcting codes in the sense that they provide the maximum failure-tolerance for a given number of parity nodes. Suppose that an MDS code with $k$ information nodes and $r=n-k$…
In a distributed storage system based on erasure coding, an important problem is the \emph{repair problem}: If a node storing a coded piece fails, in order to maintain the same level of reliability, we need to create a new encoded piece and…
