Cache-aided content delivery is studied in a multi-server system with $P$ servers and $K$ users, each equipped with a local cache memory. In the delivery phase, each user connects randomly to any $\rho$ out of $P$ servers. Thanks to the…
Replicating or caching popular content in memories distributed across the network is a technique to reduce peak network loads. Conventionally, the performance gain of caching was thought to result from making part of the requested data…
This work considers the coded caching problem with shared caches, where users share the caches, and each user gets access only to one cache. The user-to-cache association is assumed to be known at the server during the placement phase. We…
We consider load balancing in a network of caching servers delivering contents to end users. Randomized load balancing via the so-called power of two choices is a well-known approach in parallel and distributed systems. In this framework,…
With files proactively stored at base stations (BSs), mobile edge caching enables direct content delivery without remote file fetching, which can reduce the end-to-end delay while relieving backhaul pressure. To effectively utilize the…
The coded caching scheme proposed by Maddah-Ali and Niesen (MAN) transmits coded multicast messages to users equipped with caches and it is known to be optimal within a constant factor. This work extends this caching scheme to two-hop relay…
Coded caching is a technique that generalizes conventional caching and promises significant reductions in traffic over caching networks. However, the basic coded caching scheme requires that each file hosted in the server be partitioned…
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…
Coded caching techniques have received significant attention lately due to their provable gains in reducing the cost of data delivery in wireless networks. These gains, however, have only been demonstrated under the assumption of a free…
Multi-antenna coded caching combines a global caching gain, proportional to the total cache size in the network, with an additional spatial multiplexing gain that stems from multiple transmitting antennas. However, classic centralized coded…
Coded caching is a technique that promises huge reductions in network traffic in content-delivery networks. However, the original formulation and several subsequent contributions in the area, assume that the file requests from the users are…
Decentralized coded caching is studied for a content server with $N$ files, each of size $F$ bits, serving $K$ active users, each equipped with a cache of distinct capacity. It is assumed that the users' caches are filled in advance during…
To address the massive growth of data traffic over cellular networks, increasing spatial reuse of the frequency spectrum by the deployment of small base stations (SBSs) has been considered. For rapid deployment of SBSs in the networks,…
To address the exponentially rising demand for wireless content, use of caching is emerging as a potential solution. It has been recently established that joint design of content delivery and storage (coded caching) can significantly…
Coded caching is an information theoretic scheme to reduce high peak hours traffic by partially prefetching files in the users local storage during low peak hours. This paper considers heterogeneous decentralized caching systems where cache…
We consider the canonical {\em shared link network} formed by a source node, hosting a library of $m$ information messages (files), connected via a noiseless common link to $n$ destination nodes (users), each with a cache of size M files.…
We consider a network consisting of a file server connected through a shared link to a number of users, each equipped with a cache. Knowing the popularity distribution of the files, the goal is to optimally populate the caches such as to…
Caching is an efficient way to reduce peak-hour network traffic congestion by storing some contents at user's local cache without knowledge of later demands. Maddah-Ali and Niesen initiated a fundamental study of caching systems; they…
Coded caching (CC) schemes exploit the cumulative cache memory of network users, outperforming traditional uncoded schemes where cache contents are only used locally. Interestingly, this CC gain can also be combined with the spatial…
This paper studies a multiaccess coded caching (MACC) where the connectivity topology between the users and the caches can be described by a class of combinatorial designs. Our model includes as special cases several MACC topologies…
