Recovery Models for Linear Batch Codes
Various types of recovery algorithms for batch codes have been considered previously, including asynchronous recovery and recovery algorithms arising from Almost Affinely Disjoint (AAD) families. We initiate a systematic investigation of linear batch codes equipped with recovery algorithms. We introduce online and strongly online batch codes, investigate their relations with asynchronous batch codes, and introduce (m,L)-strongly online batch codes, which provide particularly simple recovery algorithms. We then study simple batch codes associated with arbitrary bipartite graphs, obtaining graph-theoretic conditions for such codes and generalizing several known results.
