This work considers the distributed multivariate polynomial evaluation (DMPE) problem using a master-worker framework, which was originally considered by Yu et al., where Lagrange Coded Computing (LCC) was proposed as a coded computation scheme to provide resilience against stragglers for the DMPE problem. In this work, we propose a variant of the LCC scheme, termed Product Lagrange Coded Computing (PLCC), by combining ideas from classical product codes and LCC. The main advantage of PLCC is that they are more numerically stable than LCC; however, their resilience to stragglers is sub-optimal.
