Correction is not possible with one parity bit since any bit error in any position creates exactly the same information as bad parity. If more bits are integrated ...

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 ...
