In the coded caching problem, as originally formulated by Maddah-Ali and Niesen, a server communicates via a noiseless shared broadcast link to multiple users that have local storage capability. In order for a user to decode its demanded…
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…
Coded caching is a technique where we utilize multi-casting opportunities to reduce rate in cached networks. One limitation of coded caching schemes is that they reveal the demands of all users to their peers. In this work, we consider…
Edge caching and computing have been regarded as an efficient approach to tackle the wireless spectrum crunch problem. In this paper, we design a general coded caching with device computing strategy for content computation, e.g., virtual…

We consider the problem of data storage in a geographically distributed (or geo-distributed) network of servers (or nodes) where inter-node communication incurs certain round-trip delays. Every node serves a set of users who can request any…
Coded caching is an information theoretic scheme to reduce high peak hours traffic by partially prefetching files in the users local storage during low peak hours. This paper considers heterogeneous decentralized caching systems where cache…
Information theoretic analysis of a coded caching system is considered, in which a server with a database of N equal-size files, each F bits long, serves K users. Each user is assumed to have a local cache that can store M files, i.e.,…
For a caching system with multiple users, we aim to characterize the memory-rate tradeoff for caching with uncoded cache placement, under nonuniform file popularity. Focusing on the modified coded caching scheme (MCCS) recently proposed by…
Network cache allocation and management are important aspects of the design of an Information-Centric Network (ICN), such as one based on Named Data Networking (NDN). We address the problem of optimal cache size allocation and content…
Coded Caching is a promising solution to reduce the peak traffic in broadcast networks by prefetching the popular content close to end users and using coded transmissions. One of the chief issues of most coded caching schemes in literature…

This paper presents a novel achievable scheme for coded caching systems with $N$ files and $K$ users, specifically when $N \leq K$. This new scheme employs linear coding both during the placement phase - where cache contents are linear…
Optimal caching of files in a content distribution network (CDN) is a problem of fundamental and growing commercial interest. Although many different caching algorithms are in use today, the fundamental performance limits of network caching…
In this paper, we devise the optimal caching placement to maximize the offloading probability for a two-tier wireless caching system, where the helpers and a part of users have caching ability. The offloading comes from the local caching,…

We study the decentralized caching scheme in a two-layer network, which includes a sever, multiple helpers, and multiple users. Basically, the proposed caching scheme consists of two phases, i.e, placement phase and delivery phase. In the…
