Assume data bit 0, the first data bit, is incorrect. Because bit 0 is incorrect the bits 1, 3, 4, and 5 (lines 1 and 4 equations) may be calculated as incorrect. But the calculation of those bits ...

Error detecting and correcting codes are based on significant distance between two bit strings in terms of the number of bits that have to alter to get from the first ...

Second, the codes are typically 7 or 8 bits, which makes for an inefficient use of a 16-bit memory structure. This is handled by using the same memory chip for data and codes. This is referred to as ...

Eliminating errors in next-generation DNA sequencing has proved challenging. Here we present error-correction code (ECC) sequencing, a method to greatly improve sequencing accuracy by combining ...
