Diffusion-based molecular nanonetworks exploit the diffusion of molecules, eg, in free space
or in blood vessels, for the purpose of communication. This article comprehensively surveys …

Chemical reactions and diffusion are two basic mechanisms governing the dynamics of
molecules in a fluid. As such, they play a critical role in molecular communication for …

Private information retrieval protocols guarantee that a user can privately and losslessly
retrieve a single file from a database stored across multiple servers. In this work, we propose …

This paper is a collection of results on combinatorial properties of codes for the Z-channel. A
Z-channel with error fraction takes as input a length-binary codeword and injects in an …

Historically, economic models of memory have neglected a pivotal aspect: decay, the
established notion that memories deteriorate over time, resulting in a loss of fidelity. In this …

A key justification for molecular communications is low energy consumption and limited
complexity. However, this is only the case if effective architectures for transmitting and …

In this paper we study function-correcting codes, a new class of codes designed to protect
the function evaluation of a message against errors. We show that FCCs are equivalent to …

Regarded as one of the future gateways to nanobot communication and Internet of Bio-Nano
Things (IoBNT) on the biological and nanoscale level, Molecular Communication (MC) can …

We introduce a definition of perfect and quasi-perfect codes for discrete symmetric channels
based on the packing and covering properties of generalized spheres whose shape is tilted …

The search for optimal finite-length binary block codes is a long-standing open problem for
memoryless binary symmetric channels (BSCs) with the maximum likelihood decoding. A …
