We consider the classical uncoded caching problem from an online learning point-of-view. A cache of limited storage capacity can hold $C$ files at a time from a large catalog. A user requests an arbitrary file from the catalog at each time…
We introduce SwiftCache, a "fresh" learning-based caching framework designed for content distribution networks (CDNs) featuring distributed front-end local caches and a dynamic back-end database. Users prefer the most recent version of the…
This letter investigates the performance of content caching in a heterogeneous cellular network (HetNet) consisting of fluid antenna system (FAS)-equipped mobile users (MUs) and millimeter-wave (mm-wave) single-antenna small base stations…
Given a statistical model for the request frequencies and sizes of data objects in a caching system, we derive the probability density of the size of the file that accounts for the largest amount of data traffic. This is equivalent to…
In this paper, we study the online collaborative content caching problem from network economics point of view. The network consists of small cell base stations (SCBSs) with limited cache capacity and a macrocell base station (MCBS). SCBSs…
We consider the classical coded caching problem as defined by Maddah-Ali and Niesen, where a server with a library of $N$ files of equal size is connected to $K$ users via a shared error-free link. Each user is equipped with a cache with…
Locally caching contents at the network edge constitutes one of the most disruptive approaches in $5$G wireless networks. Reaping the benefits of edge caching hinges on solving a myriad of challenges such as how, what and when to…
Coded Caching is an efficient technique to reduce peak hour network traffic. One limitation of known coded caching schemes is that the demands of all users are revealed to their peers in the delivery phase. Schemes that assure privacy for…
In this paper, we consider a novel cache-enabled heterogeneous network (HetNet), where macro base stations (BSs) with traditional sub-6 GHz are overlaid by dense millimeter wave (mmWave) pico BSs. These two-tier BSs, which are modeled as…
Small-cell densification is a strategy enabling the offloading of users from macro base stations (MBSs), in order to alleviate their load and increase the coverage, especially, for cell-edge users. In parallel, as the network increases in…
Mobile edge caching enables content delivery within the radio access network, which effectively alleviates the backhaul burden and reduces response time. To fully exploit edge storage resources, the most popular contents should be…
This paper presents a tractable model for analyzing non-coherent joint transmission base station (BS) cooperation, taking into account the irregular BS deployment typically encountered in practice. Besides cellular-network specific aspects…
Caching is frequently used by Internet Service Providers as a viable technique to reduce the latency perceived by end users, while jointly offloading network traffic. While the cache hit-ratio is generally considered in the literature as…
User mobility has a large effect on optimal content placement in D2D caching networks. Since a typical user can communicate neighboring users who stay in the D2D communication area of the typical user, the optimal content placement should…
Coded caching techniques have received significant attention lately due to their provable gains in reducing the cost of data delivery in wireless networks. These gains, however, have only been demonstrated under the assumption of a free…
In this paper, the downlink file transmission within a finite lifetime is optimized with the assistance of wireless cache nodes. Specifically, the number of requests within the lifetime of one file is modeled as a Poisson point process. The…
Distributed applications require novel solutions to tackle problems that arise due to the scarcity of resources such as bandwidth, memory and processing power. One of these challenges is seen in distributed data management. The challenge is…
Small cell network (SCN) offers, for the first time, a low-cost and scalable mechanism to meet the forecast data-traffic demand. In this paper, we propose a non-uniform SCN deployment scheme. The small cell base stations (BSs) in this…
In traditional cache-enabled small-cell networks (SCNs), a user can suffer strong interference due to contentcentric base station association. This may degenerate the advantage of collaborative content caching among multiple small base…
A homomorphic secret sharing (HSS) scheme is a secret sharing scheme that supports evaluating functions on shared secrets by means of a local mapping from input shares to output shares. We initiate the study of the download rate of HSS,…
