In this article, we establish a comprehensive theoretical framework for remote estimation in a networked system composed of a source that is observed by a sensor, a remote monitor that needs to estimate the state of the source in real time,…
We consider a point-to-point communication system, where in addition to the encoder and the decoder, there is a helper that observes non-causally the realization of the noise vector and provides a (lossy) rate-$R_{\mbox{\tiny h}}$…

We study zero-error unicast index-coding instances, where each receiver must perfectly decode its requested message set, and the message sets requested by any two receivers do not overlap. We show that for all these instances with up to…
In order to communicate a message over a noisy channel, a sender (Alice) uses an error-correcting code to encode her message $x$ into a codeword. The receiver (Bob) decodes it correctly whenever there is at most a small constant fraction of…
We study the half-duplex multiple-relay channel (HD-MRC) where every node can either transmit or listen but cannot do both at the same time. We obtain a capacity upper bound based on a max-flow min-cut argument and achievable transmission…
