Proactive content caching at user devices and coded delivery is studied considering a non-uniform file popularity distribution. A novel centralized uncoded caching and coded delivery scheme, which can be applied to large file libraries, is…
Caching is a technique to reduce peak traffic rates by prefetching popular content into memories at the end users. Conventionally, these memories are used to deliver requested content in part from a locally cached copy rather than through…
The tradeoff between the user's memory size and the worst-case download time in the $(H,r,M,N)$ combination network is studied, where a central server communicates with $K$ users through $H$ immediate relays, and each user has local cache…
In multi-access edge computing (MEC) systems, there are multiple local cache servers caching contents to satisfy the users' requests, instead of letting the users download via the remote cloud server. In this paper, a multi-cell content…
Coded caching is a technique that leverages locally cached contents at the end users to reduce the network's peak-time communication load. Coded caching has been shown to achieve significant performance gains with a centralized placement…
We consider a backhaul-constrained coordinated cellular network. That is, a single-frequency network with $N+1$ multi-antenna base stations (BSs) that cooperate in order to decode the users' data, and that are linked by means of a common…
We consider the problem of video caching across a set of 5G small-cell base stations (SBS) connected to each other over a high-capacity short-delay back-haul link, and linked to a remote server over a long-delay connection. Even though the…
A significant burden on wireless networks is brought by the uploading of user-generated contents to the Internet by means of applications such as the social media. To cope with this mobile data tsunami, we develop a novel MIMO network…
Traditional macro-cell networks are experiencing an upsurge of data traffic, and small-cells are deployed to help offload the traffic from macro-cells. Given the massive deployment of small-cells in a macro-cell, the aggregate power…
It has been recently established that joint design of content delivery and storage (coded caching) can significantly improve performance over conventional caching. This has also been extended to the case when content has non-uniform…
Caching popular contents at base stations (BSs) is a promising way to unleash the potential of cellular heterogeneous networks (HetNets), where backhaul has become a bottleneck. In this paper, we compare a cache-enabled HetNet where a tier…
We consider the use of distributed storage (DS) to reduce the communication cost of content delivery in wireless networks. Content is stored (cached) in a number of mobile devices using an erasure correcting code. Users retrieve content…
In order to reduce the latency of data delivery, one of techniques is to cache the popular contents at the base stations (BSs) i.e. edge caching. However, the technique of caching at edge can only reduce the backhaul delay, other techniques…
We investigate the problem of coded caching for nonuniform demands when the structured clique cover algorithm proposed by Maddah-Ali and Niesen for decentralized caching is used for delivery. We apply this algorithm to all user demands…
Decentralized coded caching scheme, introduced by Maddah-Ali and Niesen, assumes that the caches are filled with no coordination. This work identifies a decentralized coded caching scheme -- under the assumption of uncoded placement -- for…

Erasure codes have been widely considered a promising solution to enhance data reliability at low storage costs. However, in modern geo-distributed storage systems, erasure codes may incur high data access latency as they require data…
Edge-caching has received much attention as an efficient technique to reduce delivery latency and network congestion during peak-traffic times by bringing data closer to end users. Existing works usually design caching algorithms separately…
