Joint caching and recommendation has been recently proposed as a new paradigm for increasing the efficiency of mobile edge caching. Early findings demonstrate significant gains for the network performance. However, previous works evaluated…
Joint caching and recommendation has been recently proposed for increasing the efficiency of mobile edge caching. While previous works assume collaboration between mobile network operators and content providers (who control the…
We consider the problem of optimizing Quality of Experience (QoE) of clients streaming real-time video, served by networks managed by different operators that can share bandwidth with each other. The abundance of real-time video traffic is…
An interactive session of video-on-demand (VOD) streaming procedure deserves smooth data transportation for the viewer, irrespective of their geographic location. To access the required video, bandwidth management during the video objects…
Modern recommendation systems aim to increase click-through rates (CTR) for better user experience, through commonly treating ranking as a classification task focused on predicting CTR. However, there is a gap between this method and the…
Mobility-on-demand (MoD) systems represent a rapidly developing mode of transportation wherein travel requests are dynamically handled by a coordinated fleet of vehicles. Crucially, the efficiency of an MoD system highly depends on how well…
Recommendation systems are being explored by Cable TV operators to improve user satisfaction with services, such as Live TV and Video on Demand (VOD) services. More recently, Catch-up TV has been introduced, allowing users to watch recent…
As wireless video transmission is the fastest-growing form of data traffic, methods for spectrally efficient video on-demand wireless streaming are essential to service providers and users alike. A key property of video on-demand is the…
We take an analytical approach to study the Quality of user Experience (QoE) for video streaming applications. Our propose is to characterize buffer starvations for streaming video with Long-Range-Dependent (LRD) input traffic. Specifically…
Edge caching plays an increasingly important role in boosting user content retrieval performance while reducing redundant network traffic. The effectiveness of caching ultimately hinges on the accuracy of predicting content popularity in…
The overwhelming volume and complexity of information in online applications make recommendation essential for users to find information of interest. However, two major limitations that coexist in real world applications (1) incomplete user…
Edge-caching is recognized as an efficient technique for future wireless cellular networks to improve network capacity and user-perceived quality of experience. Due to the random content requests and the limited cache memory, designing an…
The demand and usage of 360$^{\circ}$ video services are expected to increase. However, despite these services being highly bandwidth intensive, not much is known about the potential value that basic bandwidth saving techniques such as…
Caching at the wireless edge can be used to keep up with the increasing demand for high-definition wireless video streaming. By prefetching popular content into memory at wireless access points or end-user devices, requests can be served…
The emergence of novel interactive multimedia applications with high rate and low latency requirements has led to a drastic increase in the video data traffic over wireless cellular networks. Endowing the small base stations of a macro-cell…
The proprietary nature of existing Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) means they are closed and do not naturally cooperate. A CDN is expected to provide high performance Internet content delivery through global coverage, which might be an…
More and more scholars focus on mobile edge computing (MEC) technology, because the strong storage and computing capabilities of MEC servers can reduce the long transmission delay, bandwidth waste, energy consumption, and privacy leaks in…
Cache-enabled device-to-device (D2D) communications can boost network throughput. By pre-downloading contents to local caches of users, the content requested by a user can be transmitted via D2D links by other users in proximity. Prior…
Now-a-days internet has become a vast source of entertainment & new services are available in quick succession which provides entertainment to the users. One of this service i.e. Video-on-Demand is most hyped service in this context.…
Prior works in designing caching policy do not distinguish content popularity with user preference. In this paper, we illustrate the caching gain by exploiting individual user behavior in sending requests. After showing the connection…
