In modern practical data centers, storage nodes are usually organized into equally sized groups, which is called racks. The cost of cross-rack communication is much more expensive compared with the intra-rack communication cost. The codes…
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…
Regenerating codes provide an efficient way to recover data at failed nodes in distributed storage systems. It has been shown that regenerating codes can be designed to minimize the per-node storage (called MSR) or minimize the…
The paper is devoted to the problem of erasure coding in distributed storage. We consider a model of storage that assumes that nodes are organized into equally sized groups, called racks, that within each group the nodes can communicate…
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. In this paper, we address…
We derive a lower bound on the amount of information accessed to repair failed nodes within a single rack from any number of helper racks in the rack-aware storage model that allows collective information processing in the nodes that share…
Regenerating codes are a class of recently developed codes for distributed storage that, like Reed-Solomon codes, permit data recovery from any arbitrary k of n nodes. However regenerating codes possess in addition, the ability to repair a…
Maximum distance separable (MDS) codes facilitate the achievement of elevated levels of fault tolerance in storage systems while incurring minimal redundancy overhead. Reed-Solomon (RS) codes are typical MDS codes with the sub-packetization…
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 distributed storage systems that employ erasure coding, the issue of minimizing the total {\it communication} required to exactly rebuild a storage node after a failure arises. This repair bandwidth depends on the structure of the…
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…
$\epsilon$-Minimum Storage Regenerating ($\epsilon$-MSR) codes form a special class of Maximum Distance Separable (MDS) codes, providing mechanisms for exact regeneration of a single code block in their codewords by downloading slighly…
Maximum-distance-separable (MDS) codes are a class of erasure codes that are widely adopted to enhance the reliability of distributed storage systems (DSS). In (n, k) MDS coded DSS, the original data are stored into n distributed nodes in…
MDS array codes are widely used in storage systems due to their computationally efficient encoding and decoding procedures. An MDS code with $r$ redundancy nodes can correct any $r$ node erasures by accessing all the remaining information…
A novel technique for construction of minimum storage regenerating (MSR) codes is presented. Based on this technique, three explicit constructions of MSR codes are given. The first two constructions provide access-optimal MSR codes, with…
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…
Petabyte-scale distributed storage systems are currently transitioning to erasure codes to achieve higher storage efficiency. Classical codes like Reed-Solomon are highly sub-optimal for distributed environments due to their high overhead…
This paper presents an explicit construction for an $((n,k,d=n-1), (\alpha,\beta))$ regenerating code over a field $\mathbb{F}_Q$ operating at the Minimum Storage Regeneration (MSR) point. The MSR code can be constructed to have rate $k/n$…
Regenerating codes are a class of distributed storage codes that optimally trade the bandwidth needed for repair of a failed node with the amount of data stored per node of the network. Minimum Storage Regenerating (MSR) codes minimize…
Erasure codes provide a storage efficient alternative to replication based redundancy in (networked) storage systems. They however entail high communication overhead for maintenance, when some of the encoded fragments are lost and need to…
