Computers employ a variety of schemes to check whether a chunk of digital information–transmitted as a message, stored in a database, or functioning as a set of instructions–remains error-free. Such ...

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 ...

A new technical paper titled “Leveraging Qubit Loss Detection in Fault-Tolerant Quantum Algorithms” was published by ...

I’ll discuss them with respect to RS code but they can be used with all FEC codes, including mixing types of FEC code. Interleaving is simply taking a number of messages and mixing the bytes, in a ...

Error Correction Codes (ECC) play an essential role in safeguarding memory systems by detecting and correcting errors that arise from various sources, including ...

IBM scientists today unveiled two critical advances towards the realization of a practical quantum computer. For the first time, they showed the ability to detect and measure both kinds of quantum ...
