We consider an Internet of Things (IoT) system in which a sensor observes a phenomena of interest with exponentially distributed intervals and delivers the updates to a monitor with the First-come-First-served (FCFS) policy. At the monitor,…
We consider an Internet of Things (IoT) system in which a sensor delivers updates to a monitor with exponential service time and first-come-first-served (FCFS) discipline. We investigate the freshness of the received updates and propose a…
In Internet of Things (IoT), the decision timeliness of time-sensitive applications is jointly affected by the statistics of update process and decision process. This work considers an update-and-decision system with a Poisson-arrival…
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…
Consider a stream of status updates generated by a source, where each update is of one of two types: high priority or ordinary (low priority). These updates are to be transmitted through a network to a monitor. However, the transmission…
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…
Age of information (AoI) is a time-evolving measure of information freshness, that tracks the time since the last received fresh update was generated. Analyzing peak and average AoI, two time average metrics of AoI, for various continuous…
In this paper, we consider a single-source multi-server generate-at-will discrete-time non-preemptive status update system where update packets are transmitted using {\em only one} of the available servers, according to a server selection…
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…
The freshness of status updates is imperative in mission-critical Internet of things (IoT) applications. Recently, Age of Information (AoI) has been proposed to measure the freshness of updates at the receiver. However, AoI only…
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…
Age-of-information (AoI) is a newly proposed performance metric of information freshness. It differs from the traditional delay metric, because it is destination centric and measures the time that elapsed since the last received fresh…
We consider a system where the updates from independent sources are disseminated via a publish-subscribe mechanism. The sources are the publishers and a decision process (DP), acting as a subscriber, derives decision updates from the source…
Having timely and fresh knowledge about the current state of information sources is critical in a variety of applications. In particular, a status update may arrive at the destination much later than its generation time due to processing…
Timely status updates are crucial to enabling applications in massive Internet of Things (IoT). This paper measures the data-freshness performance of a status update system with an energy harvesting transmitter, considering the randomness…
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…
Characterizing Age of Information (AoI) in status updating systems with general arrival and service processes has great significance considering that the interarrival and service time of updates can possibly be arbitrary in a real world.…
This paper considers the stationary distribution of the age of information (AoI) in information update systems. We first derive a general formula for the stationary distribution of the AoI, which holds for a wide class of information update…
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…
In this work, we investigate information freshness in a status update communication system consisting of a source-destination link. Initially, we study the properties of a sample path of the age of information (AoI) process at the…
