We consider load balancing problem in a cache network consisting of storage-enabled servers forming a distributed content delivery scenario. Previously proposed load balancing solutions cannot perfectly balance out requests among servers,…
We consider a basic cache network, in which a single server is connected to multiple users via a shared bottleneck link. The server has a database of files (content). Each user has an isolated memory that can be used to cache content in a…
Caching popular contents at edge devices is an effective solution to alleviate the burden of the backhaul networks. Earlier investigations commonly neglected the storage cost in caching. More recently, retention-aware caching, where both…
Network based on distributed caching of content is a new architecture to alleviate the ongoing explosive demands for rate of multi-media traffic. In caching networks, coded caching is a recently proposed technique that achieves significant…
In this paper, the problem of content-aware user clustering and content caching in wireless small cell networks is studied. In particular, a service delay minimization problem is formulated, aiming at optimally caching contents at the small…
A new form of caching, namely application-level caching, has been recently employed in web applications to improve their performance and increase scalability. It consists of the insertion of caching logic into the application base code to…
Cache-aided wireless device-to-device (D2D) networks allow significant throughput increase, depending on the concentration of the popularity distribution of files. Many studies assume that all users have the same preference distribution;…
Caching has been successfully applied in wired networks, in the context of Content Distribution Networks (CDNs), and is quickly gaining ground for wireless systems. Storing popular content at the edge of the network (e.g. at small cells) is…
In heterogeneous cellular networks with caching capability, due to mobility of users and storage constraints of small-cell base stations (SBSs), users may not be able to download all of their requested content from the SBSs within the delay…
This work considers the combinatorial multi-access coded caching problem introduced in the recent work by Muralidhar \textit{et al.} [P. N. Muralidhar, D. Katyal, and B. S. Rajan, ``Maddah-Ali-Niesen scheme for multi-access coded caching,''…
In wireless caching networks, a user generally has a concrete purpose of consuming contents in a certain preferred category, and requests multiple contents in sequence. While most existing research on wireless caching and delivery has…
The combination of edge caching and coded multicasting is a promising approach to improve the efficiency of content delivery over cache-aided networks. The global caching gain resulting from content overlap distributed across the network in…
We consider a variant of the coded caching problem where users connect to two types of caches, called private caches and access caches. The problem setting consists of a server having a library of files and a set of access caches. Every…
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…
This work studies the $K$-user broadcast channel with $\Lambda$ caches, when the association between users and caches is random, i.e., for the scenario where each user can appear within the coverage area of -- and subsequently is assisted…
The demand private coded caching problem in a multi-access network with $K$ users and $K$ caches, where each user has access to $L$ neighbouring caches in a cyclic wrap-around manner, is studied. The additional constraint imposed is that…
We consider the problem of \emph{secretive coded caching} in a shared cache setup where the number of users accessing a particular \emph{helper cache} is more than one, and every user can access exactly one helper cache. In secretive coded…
Similarity caching systems have recently attracted the attention of the scientific community, as they can be profitably used in many application contexts, like multimedia retrieval, advertising, object recognition, recommender systems and…
Caching is a crucial component of many computer systems, so naturally it is a well-studied topic in algorithm design. Much of traditional caching research studies cache management for a single-user or single-processor environment. In this…
Next generation of cellular networks deploying wireless distributed femtocaching infrastructure proposed by Golrezaei et. al. are studied. By taking advantage of multihop communications in each cell, the number of required femtocaching…
