We propose new repair schemes for Reed-Solomon codes that use subspace polynomials and hence generalize previous works in the literature that employ trace polynomials. The Reed-Solomon codes are over $\mathbb{F}_{q^\ell}$ and have…
Despite their exceptional error-correcting properties, Reed-Solomon codes have been overlooked in distributed storage applications due to the common belief that they have poor repair bandwidth: A naive repair approach would require the…
We generalize the problem of recovering a lost/erased symbol in a Reed-Solomon code to the scenario in which some side information about the lost symbol is known. The side information is represented as a set $S$ of linearly independent…

Reed-Solomon codes have found many applications in practical storage systems, but were until recently considered unsuitable for distributed storage applications due to the widely-held belief that they have poor repair bandwidth. The work of…
The repair problem in distributed storage addresses recovery of the data encoded using an erasure code, for instance, a Reed-Solomon (RS) code. We consider the problem of repairing a single node or multiple nodes in RS-coded storage systems…
We study the problem of efficiently computing on encoded data. More specifically, we study the question of low-bandwidth computation of functions $F:\mathbb{F}^k \to \mathbb{F}$ of some data $x \in \mathbb{F}^k$, given access to an encoding…
The repair bandwidth of a code is the minimum amount of data required to repair one or several failed nodes (erasures). For MDS codes, the repair bandwidth is bounded below by the so-called cut-set bound, and codes that meet this bound with…
The issue of repairing Reed-Solomon codes currently employed in industry has been sporadically discussed in the literature. In this work we carry out a systematic study of these codes and investigate important aspects of repairing them…
This paper presents two repair schemes for low-rate Reed-Solomon (RS) codes over prime fields that can repair any node by downloading a constant number of bits from each surviving node. The total bandwidth resulting from these schemes is…
We study the performance of Reed-Solomon (RS) codes for the \em exact repair problem \em in distributed storage. Our main result is that, in some parameter regimes, Reed-Solomon codes are optimal regenerating codes, among MDS codes with…
Coding for distributed storage gives rise to a new set of problems in coding theory related to the need of reducing inter-node communication in the system. A large number of recent papers addressed the problem of optimizing the total amount…
Recently Reed-Solomon (RS) codes were shown to possess a repair scheme that supports repair of failed nodes with optimal repair bandwidth. In this paper, we extend this result in two directions. First, we propose a new repair scheme for the…
Minimum storage regenerating (MSR) codes are MDS codes which allow for recovery of any single erased symbol with optimal repair bandwidth, based on the smallest possible fraction of the contents downloaded from each of the other symbols.…
The problem of repairing linear codes and, in particular, Reed Solomon (RS) codes has attracted a lot of attention in recent years due to their extreme importance to distributed storage systems. In this problem, a failed code symbol (node)…
Motivated by applications in distributed storage, distributed computing, and homomorphic secret sharing, we study communication-efficient schemes for computing linear combinations of coded symbols. Specifically, we design low-bandwidth…
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…
We consider the repair problem for Reed--Solomon (RS) codes, evaluated on an $\mathbb{F}_q$-linear subspace $U\subseteq\mathbb{F}_{q^m}$ of dimension $d$, where $q$ is a prime power, $m$ is a positive integer, and $\mathbb{F}_q$ is the…
The piggybacking framework for designing erasure codes for distributed storage has empirically proven to be very useful, and has been used to design codes with desirable properties, such as low repair bandwidth and complexity. However, the…
In distributed storage, erasure codes -- like Reed-Solomon Codes -- are often employed to provide reliability. In this setting, it is desirable to be able to repair one or more failed nodes while minimizing the repair bandwidth. In this…
