We consider a source that collects a multiplicity of streams of updates and sends them through a network to a monitor. However, only a single update can be in the system at a time. Therefore, the transmitter always preempts the packet being…
We consider a system where randomly generated updates are to be transmitted to a monitor, but only a single update can be in the transmission service at a time. Therefore, the source has to prioritize between the two possible transmission…
In this paper, we examine a system where status updates are generated by a source and are forwarded in a First-Come-First-Served (FCFS) manner to the monitor. We consider the case where the server has other tasks to fulfill, a simple…
We consider the peak age-of-information (PAoI) in an M/M/1 queueing system with packet delivery error, i.e., update packets can get lost during transmissions to their destination. We focus on two types of policies, one is to adopt…
We consider a G/G/1 queueing system with a single server, where updates arrive from different sources stochastically with possibly different update inter-generation time distributions. The server can transmit/serve at most one update at any…
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…
In this paper, we consider a transmission scheduling problem, in which several streams of status update packets with diverse priority levels are sent through a shared channel to their destinations. We introduce a notion of Lexicographic age…
We consider a multi-source status update system consisting of multiple independent sources, a single server, and a single sink. Each source generates packets according to a Poisson process, and packets are served according to a general…
We consider an M/M/1 update-and-decide system where Poisson distributed decisions are made based on the received updates. We propose to characterize the freshness of the received updates at decision epochs with Age upon Decisions (AuD).…
We consider a scenario where a monitor is interested in being up to date with respect to the status of some system which is not directly accessible to this monitor. However, we assume a source node has access to the status and can send…
We consider a status update system consisting of one source, one server, and one sink. The source generates packets according to a Poisson process and the packets are served according to a generally distributed service time. We consider a…
We consider the age of information in a multicast network where there is a single source node that sends time-sensitive updates to $n$ receiver nodes. Each status update is one of two kinds: type I or type II. To study the age of…
In this work, we investigate the design of information-update systems, where incoming update packets are forwarded to a remote destination through multiple servers (each server can be viewed as a wireless channel). One important performance…
We consider a multi-source status update system, where each source generates status update packets according to a Poisson process which are then served according to a generally distributed service time. For this multi-source M/G/1/1…
We consider a multicast network in which real-time status updates generated by a source are replicated and sent to multiple interested receiving nodes through independent links. The receiving nodes are divided into two groups: one priority…
Received samples of a stochastic process are processed by a server for delivery as updates to a monitor. Each sample belongs to a class that specifies a distribution for its processing time and a function that describes how the value of the…
We study the coexistence of high throughput traffic flows with status update flows that require timely delivery of updates. A mix of these flows share an end-to-end path that includes a WiFi access network followed by paths over the…
A source submits status updates to a network for delivery to a destination monitor. Updates follow a route through a series of network nodes. Each node is a last-come-first-served queue supporting preemption in service. We characterize the…
We consider the age of information in G/G/1/1 systems under two service discipline models. In the first model, if a new update arrives when the service is busy, it is blocked; in the second model, a new update preempts the current update in…
Information updates in multihop networks such as Internet of Things (IoT) and intelligent transportation systems have received significant recent attention. In this paper, we minimize the age of a single information flow in…
