We study the problem of wireless edge caching when file popularity is unknown and possibly non-stationary. A bank of $J$ caches receives file requests and a utility is accrued for each request depending on the serving cache. The network…
Most of prior works optimize caching policies based on the following assumptions: 1) every user initiates request according to content popularity, 2) all users are with the same active level, and 3) users are uniformly located in the…
