About

Code On is a university spin-out founded by the inventors of Random Linear Network Coding (RLNC), based in Cambridge MA, providing consultancy and technical services related to RLNC as well as Intellectual Property rights to the technology.

Founding Technologists

Random Linear Network Coding was invented in 2003 in a collaborative effort across multiple universities, the algorithm was thoroughly vetted and from 2006, companies like AlcatelLucent, Huawei, NBC, NetApp, Nokia, Technicolor, France Telecom/Orange, the Semiconductor Research Corporation, and others sponsored specific applied research grants.

Code On seeks to educate and train licensees on RLNC features and capabilities to foster innovation and the continued growth of network coding-enabled applications and services.
