Title:
A Tutorial on Network Coding.
Abstract:
The advent of network coding promises to benefit many areas of
communication and networking. The network coding approach
generalizes traditional routing by allowing intermediate network
nodes to mix incoming data packets. This approach has a great
potential for improving the throughput, robustness, reliability and
security of networking and distributed systems. This is a
fascinating new research area that employs methods and tools from
linear algebra and graph theory. This tutorial provides an overview
of the methods and tools developed in the recent years and outlines
some of their potential applications.
