Error-correcting codes are one of the triumphs of the digital age. They’re a way of encoding information so that it can be transmitted across a communication channel — such as an optical ...

A study in 2022 demonstrated the development of integer codes capable of correcting burst asymmetric errors which are particularly prevalent in high-speed optical networks [2].

Cyclic redundancy codes (CRC) are a type of checksum commonly used to detect errors in data transmission. For instance, every Ethernet packet that brought you the web page you’re reading now … ...

This “single-error-correct, double-error-detect” approach is often abbreviated SECDED. The second generation of ECC can correct a whole device, while the third adds internal ECC. In memory, the ...

Over the years, researchers have developed many ingenious schemes, called error-correcting codes, that encode data in different ways and use different procedures to fix errors. But to theoretical ...

Construction of a scalable quantum computer requires error-correcting codes to overcome the errors introduced by noise. Here, the authors develop a decoding algorithm for the gauge color code, and ...

When running a server, especially one with mission-critical applications, it’s common practice to use error-correcting code (ECC) memory. As the name suggests, it uses an error-correcting alg… ...

Thus, to make sure the information was squirreled away safely, DNA encoders would need to repeat the code for any data 10x or even 15x, which is quite inefficient.
