Title
FURTHER RESULTS ON THE CLASSIFICATION OF MDS CODES
Abstract
An unrestricted q-ary maximum distance separable (MDS) code C with length n over an alphabet A (of size q) is a set of q(k) codewords that are elements of A(n), such that the smallest Hamming distance between two distinct codewords in C is d = n - k + 1. Sets of mutually orthogonal Latin squares of orders q <= 9, corresponding to q-ary MDS codes of size q(2), and q-ary one-error-correcting MDS codes for q <= 8 have been classified in earlier studies. These results are used here to complete the classification of all 7-ary and 8-ary MDS codes with d >= 3 using a computer search.
