We study a $K$-user coded-caching broadcast problem in a joint source-channel coding framework. The transmitter observes a database of files that are being generated at a certain rate per channel use, and each user has a cache, which can…

In the Conditional Disclosure of Secrets (CDS) problem, Alice and Bob hold inputs $x\in \mathcal{X}$ and $y\in \mathcal{Y}$ and share a secret. Let $f:\mathcal{X}\times\mathcal{Y}\to\{0,1\}$ be a function such that the secret is revealed to…
