Abstract

Motivated by the rank-modulation scheme with applications to flash memory, we consider Gray codes capable of detecting a single error, also known as snake-in-the-box codes. We study two error metrics: Kendall's τ-metric, which applies to charge-constrained errors, and the ℓ - metric, which is useful in the case of limited-magnitude errors. In both cases we construct snake-in-the-box codes with rate asymptotically tending to 1.
