Age of Information (AoI) is a metric and KPI that has been developed for measuring and controlling data freshness. Optimization of AoI in a real-life network requires adapting the rate and timing of transmissions to varying network…
Popular methods to quantify transmitted data quality are the Age of Information (AoI), the Query Age of Information (QAoI), and the Age of Incorrect Information (AoII). We consider these metrics in a point-to-point wireless communication…

We consider a source that collects a multiplicity of streams of updates and sends them through a network to a monitor. However, only a single update can be in the system at a time. Therefore, the transmitter always preempts the packet being…

We consider a time slotted communication network with a base station (BS) and a user. At each time slot a fresh update packet arrives at the BS with probability $p>0$. When the BS transmits an update packet for the first time, it goes…

We investigate the age-of-information (AoI) in the context of random access networks, in which transmitters need to send a sequence of information packets to intended receivers over shared spectrum. We establish an analytical framework that…
