Code design of ...-ispotty-byte error correcting θ-codes.

...-ispotty-byte error correcting codes over Zq [7] are non-binary codes generalizing the binary irregular-spotty-byte codes [3] suitable for semiconductor memories in which a word is divided into irregular bytes not necessarily of the same length. The distance between distinct words is measured in terms of newly defined ... - metric function [7]. In this paper, we present the code construction methods of ...-ispotty-byte error correcting codes in terms of their parity check matrix. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
