Abstract
A new variant of index coding problem termed as Pliable Index Coding Problem (PICOD) is formulated in [S. Brahma, C. Fragouli, "Pliable index coding", IEEE Transactions on Information Theory, vol. 61, no. 11, pp. 6192-6203, 2015]. In PICOD, we consider a server holding a set of messages and there is a set of clients having a subset of messages with them. Each client is satisfied if it receives any of the message which it doesn’t have. We discuss the class of PICOD where the side information is consecutive. We provide index codes for two cases - for the class where each client gets exactly one desired message and for a class where total number of messages decoded by the effective clients is maximized. Another variant of index coding problem is - c-Constrained Pliable Index Coding Problem [Linqi Song, Christina Fragouli and Tianchu Zhao, "A Pliable Index Coding Approach to Data Shuffling," arXiv:1701.05540v3 [cs.IT] 3 May 2018]. It is basically PICOD with a c-constraint, i.e, each message is decoded by at most c clients demanding that message. We provide index codes for some classes of this variant with consecutive side information.
