We consider a multi-source network with a common monitor, where fresh updates are generated at each source, following a Poisson process. At any time, at most one source can transmit its update to the monitor, and transmission time for…
In this paper, we study a system in which a sensor forwards status updates to a receiver through an error-prone channel, while the receiver sends the transmission results back to the sensor via a reliable channel. Both channels are subject…
We consider a transmitter-receiver pair in a slotted-time system. The transmitter observes a dynamic source and sends updates to a remote receiver through an error-free communication channel that suffers a random delay. We consider two…
Age-of-Information (AoI) is an application layer metric that has been widely adopted to quantify the information freshness of each information source. However, few works address the impact of probabilistic transmission failures on…
A new timeliness metric, called Age-of-Information (AoI), has recently attracted a lot of research interests for real-time applications with information updates. It has been extensively studied for various queueing models based on the…
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…
This paper investigates the average age of information (AoI) minimization in status update systems in which the update packets are transmitted with fixed rate. It is assumed that the source avoids queue-induced delay by generating and…
The timeliness of status message delivery in communications networks is subjective to time-varying wireless channel transmissions. In this paper, we investigate the age of information (AoI) of each source in a multi-source M/G/1 queueing…
A queueing system handling a sequence of message arrivals is considered where each message obsoletes all previous messages. The objective is to assess the freshness of the latest message/information that has been successfully transmitted,…
We investigate the age-of-information (AoI) in the context of random access networks, in which transmitters need to send a sequence of information packets to intended receivers over shared spectrum. We establish an analytical framework that…
Age of information (AoI) is an effective performance metric measuring the freshness of information and is popular for applications involving status update. Most of the existing works have adopted average AoI as the metric, which cannot…
The paper deals with Age of Information (AoI) in a network of multiple sources and parallel queues with buffering capabilities, preemption in service and losses in served packets. The queues do not communicate between each other and the…
In a communication setting where multiple sources share a single channel to provide status updates to a remote monitor, source transmissions need to be scheduled appropriately to maintain timely communication between each of the sources and…
This paper characterizes the fundamental trade-off between throughput and Age of Information (AoI) in wireless networks where multiple devices transmit status updates to a central base station over unreliable channels. To address the…
We examine multiple independent sources providing status updates to a monitor through simple queues. We formulate an Age of Information (AoI) timeliness metric and derive a general result for the AoI that is applicable to a wide variety of…
This paper examines the average age minimization problem where only a fraction of the network users can transmit simultaneously over unreliable channels. Finding the optimal scheduling scheme, in this case, is known to be challenging.…
