Overview
abstract
A file placement scheme using MDS codes was proposed and it was formulated as the diversity coloring problem. An optimal diversity coloring algorithm for trees was also presented. The scheme is to split the file into K equally long segments, and encode them using an (N,K) MDS code to generate N segments, then the file could be reconstructed by decoding any K of those N segments.
