Abstract

We define a variable-length code having the property that no (non-empty) prefix of each its codeword is a suffix of any other one, and vice versa. This kind of code can be seen as an extension of two well-known codes in the literature, called, respectively, fix-free code and non-overlapping code . In this paper we present constructive algorithms for such codes and some numerical results about their cardinality.
