MDS array codes are widely used in storage systems to protect data against erasures. We address the \emph{rebuilding ratio} problem, namely, in the case of erasures, what is the fraction of the remaining information that needs to be…

A $k$-server Private Information Retrieval (PIR) code is a binary linear $[m,s]$-code admitting a generator matrix such that for every integer $i$ with $1\le i\le s$ there exist $k$ disjoint subsets of columns (called recovery sets) that…

It is well known that an (n,k) code can be used to store 'k' units of information in 'n' unit-capacity disks of a distributed data storage system. If the code used is maximum distance separable (MDS), then the system can tolerate any (n-k)…

An $(n, k, d, \alpha, \beta, M)$-ERRC (exact-repair regenerating code) is a collection of $n$ nodes used to store a file. For a file of total size $M$, each node stores $\alpha$ symbols, any $k$ nodes recover the file, and any $d$ nodes…

We consider the approximate support recovery (ASR) task of inferring the support of a $K$-sparse vector ${\bf x} \in \mathbb{R}^n$ from $m$ noisy measurements. We examine the case where $n$ is large, which precludes the application of…

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…
