Term-Rank Codes for Data Storage Systems

Abstract

In this paper, the data storage process is considered from the point of view of coding theory. A hybrid of data storage systems and error-correcting code (ECC) is a promising technology storage with high performance. Error correction is inevitable in the data storage system and the error rate will increase with the number of write/delete and save data. However, the error-correction code degrades I/O performance of the system due to increased reading and encoding/decoding time from memory. Our work is to investigate the applicability of term-rank code in the data storage system.
