arXiv:2308.14527v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: High-rate minimum storage regenerating (MSR) codes are known to require a large sub-packetization level, which can make meta-data management difficult and hinder implementation in practical systems. A few maximum distance separable (MDS) array code constructions have been proposed to attain a much smaller sub-packetization level by sacrificing a bit of repair bandwidth. However, to the best of our knowledge, only one construction by Guruswami et al. can support the repair of a failed node without contacting all the surviving nodes. This construction is certainly of theoretical interest but not yet practical due to its requirement for very large code parameters. In this paper, we propose a generic transformation that can convert any $(\overline{n}, \overline{k})$ MSR code with a repair degree of $\overline{d}<\overline{n}-1$ into another $(n=s\overline{n},k)$ MDS array code that supports $dSource：https://arxiv.org/abs/2308.14527
