The article, by Ralf Koetter, a professor at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC) and Alexander Vardy, a professor at the University of California, San Diego was titled, "Algebraic ...

There are a number of both type of codes. The almost de facto standard for block codes is Reed-Solomon (RS) developed by Irving S. Reed and Gustave Solomon in 1960.

The most famous examples of locally correctable codes are versions of a venerable error-correcting code invented in 1954 by the mathematicians David Muller and Irving Reed (who also helped develop ...

Block codes Reed-Solomon codecs operate on blocks of data in which information is divided into frames (blocks), and the encoder uses only the current frame to produce its output. These codes are ...

The redundant information, in the form of extra bases placed over 4,991 short sequences according to the Reed-Solomon algorithm, provided the basis for error-correction when the DNA was read and ...

Reed–Solomon codes have long been celebrated for their robust error-correction capabilities in digital communications and data storage.

Backblaze has open-sourced a key component of its Backblaze Vault file system design: The Reed-Solomon implementation (done, in this case, in Java).

Compact area Reed Solomon Decoder ideal for low power applications. Nov. 5, 2007 -- Noesis Technologies announced today the immediate availability of its compact area paramaterizable Reed Solomon ...

In addition to communications, the KV algorithm could be used to improve the performance of CD players and the many computer hard drives that use Reed-Solomon encoding. It will be interesting to see ...
