Coded caching scheme recently has become quite popular in the wireless network due to its effectively reducing the transmission amount (denote such an amount by $R$) during peak traffic times. However to realize a coded caching scheme, each…
Large information sizes in samples and features can be encoded to speed up the learning of statistical models based on linear algebra and remove unwanted signals. Encoding information can reduce both sample and feature dimension to a…
The current internet architecture is inefficient in fulfilling the demands of newly emerging internet applications. To address this issue, several over-the-top (OTT) application-level solutions have been employed, making the overall…
Pushing and caching hold the promise of significantly increasing the throughput of content-centric wireless networks. However, the throughput gain of these techniques is limited by the buffer size of the receiver. To overcome this, this…

Cache-aided coded content delivery is studied for devices with diverse quality-of-service (QoS) requirements, specified by a different average distortion target. The network consists of a server holding a database of independent contents,…
This paper investigates the fundamental tradeoff between cache size and download time in the (H;r;M;N) combination network, where a server with N files is connected to H relays (without caches) and each of the K:=\binom{H}{r} users (with…
Proactive content caching at user devices and coded delivery is studied considering a non-uniform file popularity distribution. A novel centralized uncoded caching and coded delivery scheme, which can be applied to large file libraries, is…
The importance of content delivery networks (CDN) continues to rise with the exponential increase in the generation and consumption of electronic media. In order to ensure a high quality of experience, CDNs often deploy cache servers that…
We address the use of linear randon fountain codes caching schemes in a heterogeneous satellite network. We consider a system composed of multiple hubs and a geostationary Earth orbit satellite. Coded content is memorized in hubs' caches in…
We study the problem of optimizing the cost of content delivery in a cooperative network of caches at end-nodes. The caches could be, for example, within the computers of users downloading videos from websites (such as Netflix, Blockbuster…
Data storage systems are more reliable than their individual components. In order to build highly reliable systems out of less reliable parts, systems introduce redundancy. In replicated systems, objects are simply copied several times with…
In this paper we close the gap between end-to-end diversity coding and intra-session network coding for unicast connections resilient against single link failures. In particular, we show that coding operations are sufficient to perform at…

Compression techniques that support fast random access are a core component of any information system. Current state-of-the-art methods group documents into fixed-sized blocks and compress each block with a general-purpose adaptive…
The scaling behavior of fluctuation for a download network which we have investigated a few years ago based upon Zhang's Encophysics web page has been presented. A power law scaling, namely $\sigma \sim < f> ^ \alpha $ exists between the…
Solving multiple visual tasks using individual models can be resource-intensive, while multi-task learning can conserve resources by sharing knowledge across different tasks. Despite the benefits of multi-task learning, such techniques can…
