This page is the electronic distribution for the codes presented in:
Constructing asymmetric covering codes by tabu search, P. R. J. Östergård and E. A. Seuranen, Journal of Combinatorial Mathematics and Combinatorial Computing 51 (2004), 165-173.

The upper bounds listed here are not necessary up to date, since no modifications have been done after the paper was submitted (Oct 8 2003).

Asymmetric covering codes are given by their decimal value (i.e. 11 in decimal is ...001011 in binary). The covering code files have the following format:

1         ; 1st line - R
8         ; 2nd line - n
2         ; 3rd line - q
58        ; 4th line - the cardinality of the code
          ; the codewords in one or more lines

The exact bounds are indicated with a period. The new upper bounds presented in the paper are linked to the code attaining the bound; for the other bounds see the references in the paper.
