Richard W. Hamming invented Hamming codes in 1950 as a way of automatically correcting errors introduced by punched card readers. In his original paper, Hamming elaborated his general idea, but ...

Hamming codes are perfect codes, that is, they achieve the highest possible rate for codes with their block length and minimum distance of three. [1] Richard W. Hamming invented Hamming codes in 1950 ...

The ECC circuit is optimized with respect to the increase in the chip area and the access-time penalty, and can be applied to a 16-Mbit DRAM with 20% chip area increase and less access-time penalty.

You may not know the name [Richard Hamming], but you definitely use some of his work. While working for Bell Labs, he developed Hamming codes — the parent of a class of codes that detect, and ...

Therefore, we have to either improve the correction capacity of the Hamming code, or decrease the complexity cost for the Reed-Solomon code. Based on this analysis, we propose a new design of parallel ...

In 1950 Bell Labs researcher, Richard W Hamming, made a discovery that would lay an important foundation for the entire modern computing and communications industries. He had invented a code for ...

Coding theory has had two divergent schools of thought, dating back to its origins, based on the underlying model of the noisy channel. Shannon’s theory modeled the channel as a stochastic process ...
