Abstract
Locally Repairable Codes (LRCs) have seen an increase in interest because of their applicability in distributed storage systems. In this thesis, we define and study a generalization of LRCs that we name Multi-symbol Locally Repairable Codes (MLRCs). MLRCs can be useful in situations where multiple users request data from a number of failed servers, concurrently. We derive an upper bound on the minimum distance of such MLRCs.
