Random linear codes are a workhorse in coding theory, and are used to show the existence of codes with the best known or even near-optimal trade-offs in many noise models. However, they have little structure besides linearity, and are not…
In this paper, we propose {\em distributed network compression via memory}. We consider two spatially separated sources with correlated unknown source parameters. We wish to study the universal compression of a sequence of length $n$ from…
This paper investigates low-latency streaming codes for a three-node relay network. The source transmits a sequence of messages (streaming messages) to the destination through the relay between them, where the first-hop channel from the…
The problem of error control in random linear network coding is addressed from a matrix perspective that is closely related to the subspace perspective of K\"otter and Kschischang. A large class of constant-dimension subspace codes is…

Coded caching is an effective technique to reduce the redundant traffic in wireless networks. The existing coded caching schemes require the splitting of files into a possibly large number of subfiles, i.e., they perform coded subfile…
Erasure codes play an important role in storage systems to prevent data loss. In this work, we study a class of erasure codes called Multi-Erasure Locally Recoverable Codes (ME-LRCs) for storage arrays. Compared to previous related works,…
A distributed lossy compression network with $L$ encoders and a decoder is considered. Each encoder observes a source and sends a compressed version to the decoder. The decoder produces a joint reconstruction of target signals with the mean…
The explosion of the amount of data stored in cloud systems calls for more efficient paradigms for redundancy. While replication is widely used to ensure data availability, erasure correcting codes provide a much better trade-off between…

We consider the problem of geographically distributed data storage in a network of servers (or nodes) where the nodes are connected to each other via communication links having certain round-trip times (RTTs). Each node serves a specific…
The explosion in the volumes of data being stored online has resulted in distributed storage systems transitioning to erasure coding based schemes. Yet, the codes being deployed in practice are fairly short. In this work, we address what we…
Ever-increasing amounts of data are created and processed in internet-scale companies such as Google, Facebook, and Amazon. The efficient storage of such copious amounts of data has thus become a fundamental and acute problem in modern…
DNA data storage systems encode digital data into DNA strands, enabling dense and durable storage. Efficient data retrieval depends on coverage depth, a key performance metric. We study the random access coverage depth problem and focus on…
A major issue of locally repairable codes is their robustness. If a local repair group is not able to perform the repair process, this will result in increasing the repair cost. Therefore, it is critical for a locally repairable code to…
Motivated by emerging applications to the edge computing paradigm, we introduce a two-layer erasure-coded fault-tolerant distributed storage system offering atomic access for read and write operations. In edge computing, clients interact…
We consider the distributed source coding problem in which correlated data picked up by scattered sensors has to be encoded separately and transmitted to a common receiver, subject to a rate-distortion constraint. Although near-tooptimal…
Erasure codes have become an integral part of distributed storage systems as a tool for providing data reliability and durability under the constant threat of device failures. In such systems, an $[n, k]$ code over a finite field…
