In the emerging field of DNA storage, data is encoded as DNA sequences and stored. The data is read out again by sequencing the stored DNA. Nanopore sequencing is a new sequencing technology that has many advantages over other methods; in particular, it is cheap, portable, and can support longer reads. While several practical coding schemes have been developed for DNA storage with nanopore sequencing, the theory is not well understood. Towards that end, we study a highly abstracted (deterministic) version of the nanopore sequencer, which highlights key features that make its analysis difficult. We develop methods and theory to understand the capacity of our abstracted model, and we propose efficient coding schemes and algorithms.
In a distributed storage system, code symbols are dispersed across space in nodes or storage units as opposed to time. In settings such as that of a large data center, an important consideration is the efficient repair of a failed node. Efficient rep
Sequencing a DNA strand, as part of the read process in DNA storage, produces multiple noisy copies which can be combined to produce better estimates of the original strand; this is called trace reconstruction. One can reduce the error rate further b
In order to accommodate the ever-growing data from various, possibly independent, sources and the dynamic nature of data usage rates in practical applications, modern cloud data storage systems are required to be scalable, flexible, and heterogeneous
In large scale distributed storage systems (DSS) deployed in cloud computing, correlated failures resulting in simultaneous failure (or, unavailability) of blocks of nodes are common. In such scenarios, the stored data or a content of a failed node c
We construct a joint coordination-channel polar coding scheme for strong coordination of actions between two agents $mathsf X$ and $mathsf Y$, which communicate over a discrete memoryless channel (DMC) such that the joint distribution of actions foll
