Description : forward error correction erasure channel library
In information theory, an erasure code is a forward error correction (FEC)
code for the binary erasure channel, which transforms a message of symbols
into a longer message (code word) with symbols such that the original
message can be recovered from a subset of the symbols.
.
Jerasure is a shared library that been designed to be modular, fast and
flexible. It is used in storage systems such as Swift and Ceph to add fault
tolerance.
