Coding for Distributed Storage: Fundamental Limits and Code Designs

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

Applications such as file sharing, large-scale scientific projects, and social networking are fuelling the need for reliable and sustainable distributed storage systems. This project aims to develop the theory and the code designs for next-generation storage systems that are specifically optimised for the storage needs in such applications. This project is well placed to provide cost-effective, home-grown solutions for Australia's future data centre needs. Its potential immediate benefits are: contribution to the knowledge base and fundamental capabilities in storage systems; practical codes tailor-made for different storage applications; IP creation and commercialisation; and, education of future Australian academic and industrial innovators.
