Variable-Rate Linear Network Coding
Silas L. Fong, Raymond W. Yeung · IEEE Transactions on Information Theory · 2010
We introduce variable-rate linear network coding for single-source finite acyclic network. In this problem, the source of a network transmits messages at different rates in different time sessions and every nonsource node in the network decodes the messages if possible. We propose two efficient algorithms for implementing variable-rate linear network coding under different circumstances.
