  • Abstract
    An application of error-correcting codes to "write-once" memories (WOM\´s) as defined by Rivest and Shamir is studied. Large classes of "WOM codes" that are easily decodable are obtained. In particular, a construction allowing three successive writings of 11 bits on 23 positions is derived from the Golay code.
