The idea of coded caching for content distribution networks was introduced by Maddah-Ali and Niesen, who considered the canonical $(N, K)$ cache network in which a server with $N$ files satisfy the demands of $K$ users (equipped with…
This paper presents a new achievable scheme for coded caching systems with $\mathsf{N}$ files, $\mathsf{K}=\mathsf{N}$ users, and cache size $\mathsf{M}=1/(\mathsf{N}-1)$. The scheme employs linear coding during the cache placement phase,…
Coded caching has the potential to greatly reduce network traffic by leveraging the cheap and abundant storage available in end-user devices so as to create multicast opportunities in the delivery phase. In the seminal work by Maddah-Ali…

Replicating or caching popular content in memories distributed across the network is a technique to reduce peak network loads. Conventionally, the main performance gain of this caching was thought to result from making part of the requested…
Existing decentralized coded caching solutions cannot guarantee small loads in the general scenario with arbitrary file sizes and cache sizes. In this paper, we propose an optimization framework for decentralized coded caching in the…
Caching is an approach to smoothen the variability of traffic over time. Recently it has been proved that the local memories at the users can be exploited for reducing the peak traffic in a much more efficient way than previously believed.…
Centralized coded caching of popular contents is studied for users with heterogeneous distortion requirements, corresponding to diverse processing and display capabilities of mobile devices. Users' distortion requirements are assumed to be…
In this paper, we consider the coded-caching broadcast network with user cooperation, where a server connects with multiple users and the users can cooperate with each other through a cooperation network. We propose a centralized coded…
We consider content caching between a service provider and multiple cache-enabled users, using the recently proposed modified coded caching scheme (MCCS) that provides an improved delivery strategy for random user requests. We develop the…
Coded caching schemes on broadcast networks with user caches help to offload traffic from peak times to off-peak times by prefetching information from the server to the users during off-peak times and thus serving the users more efficiently…
In device-to-device (D2D) coded caching problems, it is possible that not all users will make file requests in the delivery phase. Hence, we propose a new D2D centralized coded caching problem, named the 3-user D2D coded caching with two…
This paper considers heterogeneous coded caching where the users have unequal distortion requirements. The server is connected to the users via an error-free multicast link and designs the users' cache sizes subject to a total memory…
