Abstract

Coded caching has been widely used in computer networks for shifting some transmissions from the peak traffic time to the off-peak traffic time. Multi-server coded caching, which can share responsibility for the total amount of transmission by means of the collaboration among these servers, can be seen everywhere in our life. In this paper we consider the centralized caching system with three servers setting (two data servers and one parity check server) and propose a modified caching scheme which has performance better than the previously known schemes.
