             Summary: Usage of local reconstruction codes in Apache Hadoop
                 Key: LEGAL-211
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LEGAL-211
             Project: Legal Discuss
          Issue Type: Question
            Reporter: Andrew Wang


Hi,

In HDFS-7345, we'd like to implement an erasure coding scheme originally described in a research paper published by Microsoft Research:

https://www.usenix.org/conference/atc12/technical-sessions/presentation/huang
http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/news/features/erasurecoding-090512.aspx

As [~drankye] mentions on HDFS-7345, it's unclear if this scheme is patented. Could legal provide some guidance? Thanks.
