Assuming the validity of the MDS Conjecture, the weight distribution of all MDS codes is known. Using a recently-established characterization of asymmetric quantum error-correcting codes, linear MDS codes can be used to construct asymmetric quantum MDS codes with dz ≥ dx ≥ 2 for all possible values of length n for which linear MDS codes over Fq are known to exist.

In this paper, we propose a reliable high-speed UDP-based media transport with an adaptive FEC (forward error correction) error control. The proposed adaptive transport scheme controls the amount of redundancy by monitoring the network so that it can effectively adapt to the fluctuations of underlying networks. The monitored feedbacks of the receiver enable the sender to aware of current recept...

We propose and evaluate novel reliable multicast protocols that combine active repair service (a.k.a. local recovery) and parity encoding (a.k.a. forward error correction or FEC) techniques. We show that, compared to other repair service protocols, our protocols require less buffer inside the network, maintain the low bandwidth requirements of previously proposed repair service / FEC combinatio...

In the present study, individual groups of construction companies were first classified according to size, and then the processes of changes needed for them to become insolvent were examined utilizing KMV models. Another objective of the present study was to analyze the relationship between macroeconomic fluctuations and the changes needed for construction companies to become insolvent (based o...

This paper investigates the relationship between financial development and economic growth for UK for the period 1965-2007 using a vector error correction model (VECM). The purpose of this paper is to examine the long-run relationship between these variables applying the Johansen cointegration analysis. Granger causality tests indicated that there is a causal relationship between financial deve...

An uncovering-by-bases for a group G acting on a finite set Ω is a set U of bases forG such that any r-subset of Ω is disjoint from at least one base in U, where r is a parameter dependent on G. They have applications in the decoding of permutation groups when used as error-correcting codes, and are closely related to covering designs. We give constructions for uncoverings-by-bases for many fam...

The identification of the forces that drive oil stock prices is extremely important given the size of the Oil&Gas industry and its links with the energy sector and the environment. In the next decade oil companies will have to deal with international policies to contrast climate change. This issue is likely to affect companies' shareholder values. In this paper we focus on the long-run financia...

A new technique for correcting synchronization errors in the transmission of discrete-symbol information is developed. The technique can be applied to any t-additive-error-correcting Bose-Chaudhuri-Hocquenghem code, to provide protection against synchronization errors. The synchronization error is corrected at the first complete received word after the word containing the synchronization error,...

Blackburn, Etzion and Ng showed in a paper in 2010 that there exist 2-traceability codes of length l of size cqdl/4e, where the constant c depends only on l. The question remains as to what the best possible c may be. A well-known construction using error-correcting codes with high minimum distance gives 2-traceability codes of size cqdl/4e with c ≥ 1. However, in the same paper, an example of ...
