Summary :

Modern large scale distributed storage systems play a central role in data center and cloud storage, while node failure in data center is common. The lost data in failure node must be recovered efficiently. Locally repairable codes (LRCs) are designed to solve this problem. The locality of an LRC is the number of nodes that participate in recovering the lost data from node failure, which characterizes the repair efficiency. An LRC is called optimal if its minimum distance attains Singleton-type upper bound [1]. In this paper, using basic techniques of linear algebra over finite field, infinite optimal LRCs over extension fields are derived from a given optimal LRC over base field(or small field). Next, this paper investigates the relation between near-MDS codes with some constraints and LRCs, further, proposes an algorithm to determine locality of dual of a given linear code. Finally, based on near-MDS codes and the proposed algorithm, those obtained optimal LRCs are shown.
