Multilevel cell (MLC) is developed as an effective solution for reducing the cost and increasing the storage density in recent years. However, most of flash file system cannot handle the error correction sufficiently. To correct more errors for MLC, we implement ReedSolomon (RS) code to YAFFS, what is widely used for flashbased file system. RS code has longer computing time but the correcting ability is much higher than that of Hamming code.</abstract> <index>Open Science Index 48, 2010</index> </article>
