We study the repair problem of distributed storage systems in erasure networks where the packets transmitted from surviving nodes to the new node might be lost. The fundamental storage-bandwidth tradeoff is calculated by multicasting…

The {\em repair locality} of a distributed storage code is the maximum number of nodes that ever needs to be contacted during the repair of a failed node. Having small repair locality is desirable, since it is proportional to the number of…

In multiple descriptions on distributed storage, a source is stored in a shared fashion on multiple servers. When a subset of servers are contacted, the source should be estimated with a certain maximum distortion depending on the number of…

Motivated by polymer-based data-storage platforms that use chains of binary synthetic polymers as the recording media and read the content via tandem mass spectrometers, we propose a new family of codes that allows for both unique string…

Repairing Reed-Solomon codes with low bandwidth is a central challenge in distributed storage. Following the trace-repair framework of Guruswami and Wootters (2017), recent works by Lin (2023) and Liu-Wan-Xing (2024) provided significant…

One of the primary objectives of a distributed storage system is to reliably store large amounts of source data for long durations using a large number $N$ of unreliable storage nodes, each with $c$ bits of storage capacity. Storage nodes…

Distributed storage systems for large clusters typically use replication to provide reliability. Recently, erasure codes have been used to reduce the large storage overhead of three-replicated systems. Reed-Solomon codes are the standard…

In this paper distributed storage systems with exact repair are studied. A construction for regenerating codes between the minimum storage regenerating (MSR) and the minimum bandwidth regenerating (MBR) points is given. To the best of…

We consider a distributed storage problem in a large-scale wireless sensor network with $n$ nodes among which $k$ acquire (sense) independent data. The goal is to disseminate the acquired information throughout the network so that each of…
