Consider the problem of a multi-user multiple access channel. While several multi-user coding techniques exist, in practical scenarios, not all users can be scheduled simultaneously. Thus, a key problem is which users to schedule in a given…
We investigate the demand private coded caching problem, which is an $(N,K)$ coded caching problem with $N$ files, $K$ users, each equipped with a cache of size $M$, and an additional privacy constraint on user demands, i.e., each user can…
This paper focuses on similarity caching systems, in which a user request for an {object~$o$} that is not in the cache can be (partially) satisfied by a similar stored {object~$o'$}, at the cost of a loss of user utility. Similarity caching…
Maddah-Ali and Niesen (MAN) in 2014 surprisingly showed that it is possible to serve an arbitrarily large number of cache-equipped users with a constant number of transmissions by using coded caching in shared-link broadcast networks. This…
Coded caching is a promising technique to create coded multicast opportunities for cache-aided networks. By splitting each file into $F$ equal packets (i.e., the subpacketization level $F$) and letting each user cache a set of packets, the…
Coded caching is an efficient way to reduce network traffic congestion during peak hours by storing some content at the user's local cache memory without knowledge of later demands. The goal of coded caching design is to minimize the…
The well known Maddah-Ali-Niesen (MAN) coded caching scheme for users with dedicated cache is extended for use in multi-access coded cache scheme where the number of users need not be same as the number of caches in the system. The well…
In any caching system, the admission and eviction policies determine which contents are added and removed from a cache when a miss occurs. Usually, these policies are devised so as to mitigate staleness and increase the hit probability.…
Coded caching has the potential to greatly reduce network traffic by leveraging the cheap and abundant storage available in end-user devices so as to create multicast opportunities in the delivery phase. In the seminal work by Maddah-Ali…
We explore the performance of coded caching in a SISO BC setting where some users have higher link capacities than others. Focusing on a binary and fixed topological model where strong links have a fixed normalized capacity 1, and where…
This paper studies a novel multi-access coded caching (MACC) model in the two-dimensional (2D) topology, which is a generalization of the one-dimensional (1D) MACC model proposed by Hachem et al. The 2D MACC model is formed by a server…
This paper aims to provide an optimization framework for coded caching that accounts for various heterogeneous aspects of practical systems. An optimization theoretic perspective on the seminal work on the fundamental limits of caching by…
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…
In this article we explore one of the most promising technologies for 5G wireless networks using an underlay small cell network, namely proactive caching. Using the increase in storage technologies and through studying the users behavior,…
We consider a basic content distribution scenario consisting of a single origin server connected through a shared bottleneck link to a number of users each equipped with a cache of finite memory. The users issue a sequence of content…
The surge of mobile data traffic forces network operators to cope with capacity shortage. The deployment of small cells in 5G networks is meant to reduce latency, backhaul traffic and increase radio access capacity. In this context, mobile…
User-level privacy is important in distributed systems. Previous research primarily focuses on the central model, while the local models have received much less attention. Under the central model, user-level DP is strictly stronger than the…
The work establishes the exact performance limits of stochastic coded caching when users share a bounded number of cache states, and when the association between users and caches, is random. Under the premise that more balanced…
We consider a wireless device-to-device (D2D) network where $n$ nodes are uniformly distributed at random over the network area. We let each node with storage capacity $M$ cache files from a library of size $m \geq M$. Each node in the…
To address the massive growth of data traffic over cellular networks, increasing spatial reuse of the frequency spectrum by the deployment of small base stations (SBSs) has been considered. For rapid deployment of SBSs in the networks,…
