  • Abstract
    A study of the efficiency, error-correcting capabilities, and limitations of graph theoretic block codes is presented. Augmentation of graph theoretic codes and their generation is discussed. It is shown that such augmentation techniques can substantially increase the level of efficiency of these codes and potentially could increase it to the level of the best available codes. Furthermore, the augmented graph theoretic codes are shown to be easily decodable.
