As the capacity demand of mobile applications keeps increasing, the backhaul network is becoming a bottleneck to support high quality of experience (QoE) in next-generation wireless networks. Content caching at base stations (BSs) is a…
Centralized coded caching and delivery is studied for a radio access combination network (RACN), whereby a set of $H$ edge nodes (ENs), connected to a cloud server via orthogonal fronthaul links with limited capacity, serve a total of $K$…

The performance of existing coded caching schemes is sensitive to the worst channel quality, a problem which is exacerbated when communicating over fading channels. In this paper, we address this limitation in the following manner: in…

We consider a mobile edge computing scenario where users want to perform a linear inference operation $\boldsymbol{W} \boldsymbol{x}$ on local data $\boldsymbol{x}$ for some network-side matrix $\boldsymbol{W}$. The inference is performed…
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…
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…

Caching at the wireless edge is a promising way of boosting spectral efficiency and reducing energy consumption of wireless systems. These improvements are rooted in the fact that popular contents are reused, asynchronously, by many users.…
Coded caching is able to exploit accumulated cache size and hence superior to uncoded caching by distributing different fractions of a file in different nodes. This work investigates coded caching in a large-scale small-cell network (SCN)…

We study the problem of reducing the communication overhead from a noisy wire-tap channel or storage system where data is encoded as a matrix, when more columns (or their linear combinations) are available. We present its applications to…
Coded caching can be applied in wireless multi-antenna communications by multicast beamforming coded data chunks to carefully selected user groups and using the existing file fragments in user caches to decode the desired files at each…
Large-scale machine learning and data mining applications require computer systems to perform massive matrix-vector and matrix-matrix multiplication operations that need to be parallelized across multiple nodes. The presence of straggling…
