The next generation of networks must support billions of connected devices in the Internet-of-Things (IoT). To support IoT applications, sources sense and send their measurement updates over the Internet to a monitor (control station) for…
Age of Incorrect Information (AoII) is a newly introduced performance metric that considers communication goals. Therefore, comparing with traditional performance metrics and the recently introduced metric - Age of Information (AoI), AoII…
We consider a status update communication system consisting of a source-destination link. A stochastic process is observed at the source, where samples are extracted at random time instances, and delivered to the destination, thus,…

Age of information (AoI) has been proposed as a more suitable metric for characterizing the freshness of information than traditional metrics like delay and throughput. However, the calculation of AoI requires complex analysis and strict…
We consider a network of status updating sensors whose updates are collected and sent to a monitor by a gateway. The monitor desires as fresh as possible updates from the network of sensors. The gateway may either poll a sensor for its…
We study a setting where an intelligent model (e.g., a pre-trained neural network) infers the real-time value of a target signal using data samples transmitted from a remote source. The transmission scheduler decides (i) the freshness of…
Freshness of status update packets is essential for enabling services where a destination needs the most recent measurements of various sensors. In this paper, we study the information freshness of single-server multi-source queueing models…
Age of information (AoI) measures information freshness at the receiver. AoI may provide insights into quality of service in communication systems. For this reason, it has been used as a cross-layer metric for wireless communication…
Age of Information (AoI) has become an important concept in communications, as it allows system designers to measure the freshness of the information available to remote monitoring or control processes. However, its definition tacitly…
We consider an information update system where an information receiver requests updates from an information provider in order to minimize its age of information. The updates are generated at the transmitter as a result of completing a set…

We propose a variant of the Age of Information (AoI) metric called Channel-Aware Age of Information (CA-AoI). Unlike AoI, CA-AoI takes into account the channel conditions between the source and the intended destination to compute the "age"…
