Abstract
We present an efficient implementation of Sudan's algorithm for list decoding Hermitian codes beyond half the minimum distance. The main ingredients are an explicit method to calculate so-called increasing zero bases, an efficient interpolation algorithm for finding the Q- polynomial, and a reduction of the problemof factoring the Q-polynomial to the problem of factoring a univariate polynomial over a large finite field.
