As a strategy to further reduce the transmission pressure during the peak traffic times in wireless network, coded caching has been widely studied recently. And several coded caching schemes are constructed focusing on the two core problems…
We consider a communication system where a base station (BS) transmits update packets to $N$ users, one user at a time, over a wireless channel. We investigate the age of this status updating system with an adversary that jams the update…
This paper investigates an information update system in which a mobile device monitors a physical process and sends status updates to an access point (AP). A fundamental trade-off arises between the timeliness of the information maintained…
Cloud services and other shared third-party infrastructures allow individual content providers to easily scale their services based on current resource demands. In this paper, we consider an individual content provider that wants to…
Cache replacement algorithms are used to optimize the time taken by processor to process the information by storing the information needed by processor at that time and possibly in future so that if processor needs that information, it can…
Hybrid switching - in which a high bandwidth circuit switch (optical or wireless) is used in conjunction with a low bandwidth packet switch - is a promising alternative to interconnect servers in today's large scale data-centers. Circuit…
We study optimal service pricing in server farms where customers arrive according to a renewal process and have independent and identical ($i.i.d.$) exponential service times and $i.i.d.$ valuations of the service. The service provider…
Modern web services rely on Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) to efficiently deliver contents to end users. In order to minimize the experienced communication cost, it is necessary to send the end user's requests to the nearest servers.…
Caching popular content at the edge of future mobile networks has been widely considered in order to alleviate the impact of the data tsunami on both the access and backhaul networks. A number of interesting techniques have been proposed,…
Computer networks have become a critical infrastructure. In fact, networks should not only meet strict requirements in terms of correctness, availability, and performance, but they should also be very flexible and support fast updates,…
Caching at base stations (BSs) is a promising approach for supporting the tremendous traffic growth of content delivery over future small-cell wireless networks with limited backhaul. This paper considers exploiting spatial caching…
We consider a G/G/1 queueing system with a single server, where updates arrive from different sources stochastically with possibly different update inter-generation time distributions. The server can transmit/serve at most one update at any…
In wireless caching networks, the design of the content delivery method must consider random user requests, caching states, network topology, and interference management. In this paper, we establish a general framework for content delivery…
We consider a system consisting of a library of time-varying files, a server that at all times observes the current version of all files, and a cache that at the beginning stores the current versions of all files but afterwards has to…
The software-defined networking paradigm introduces interesting opportunities to operate networks in a more flexible, optimized, yet formally verifiable manner. Despite the logically centralized control, however, a Software-Defined Network…
Real-time and cyber-physical systems need to interact with and respond to their physical environment in a predictable time. While multicore platforms provide incredible computational power and throughput, they also introduce new sources of…
In mobile edge computing systems, base stations (BSs) equipped with edge servers can provide computing services to users to reduce their task execution time. However, there is always a conflict of interest between the BS and users. The BS…
We develop a parsimonious model of an e-commerce fulfillment center that offers time-dependent shipment options and corresponding fees to utility-maximizing customers arriving according to a Poisson process. For any such policy, we provide…
A new scheme for the problem of centralized coded caching with non-uniform demands is proposed. The distinguishing feature of the proposed placement strategy is that it admits equal sub-packetization for all files while allowing the users…
Combining revenue streams by providing multiple services with battery storage systems increases profitability and enhances the investment case. In this work, we present a novel optimisation and control framework that enables a storage…
