Age of Information is a measure of the freshness of status updates in monitoring applications and update-based systems. We study a real-time remote sensing scenario with a sensor which is restricted by time-varying energy constraints and…
We study a status update system with a source, a sampler, a transmitter, and a monitor. The source governs a stochastic process that the monitor wants to observe in a timely manner. To achieve this, the sampler samples fresh update packets…
A sensor observes a random phenomenon and transmits updates about the observed phenomenon to a remote monitor. The sensor may experience intermittent failures in which case the monitor will not receive any updates until the sensor has…
In this work, we study how to optimally manage the freshness of information updates sent from a source node to a destination via a channel. A proper metric for data freshness at the destination is the age-of-information, or simply age,…
In this paper, we examine a multi-sensor system where each sensor may monitor more than one time-varying information process and send status updates to a remote monitor over a common channel. We consider that each sensor's status update may…
We consider periodical status updates between a transmitter and a legitimate receiver, in the presence of an eavesdropper that is sometimes able to capture pieces of information. We assume that, in the absence of such a threat, the…
Age-of-information is a novel performance metric in communication systems to indicate the freshness of the latest received data, which has wide applications in monitoring and control scenarios. Another important performance metric in these…
Age-of-information is a metric that quantifies the freshness of information obtained by sampling a remote sensor. In signal-agnostic sampling, sensor updates are triggered at certain times without being conditioned on the actual sensor…
In applications of remote sensing, estimation, and control, timely communication is not always ensured by high-rate communication. This work proposes distributed age-efficient transmission policies for random access channels with $M$…
This work studies the average age of information (AoI) of a monitoring system in which two sensors are sensing the same physical process and update status to a common monitor using their dedicated channels. Generally, using redundant…
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…
We consider a communication system in which status updates arrive at a source node, and should be transmitted through a network to the intended destination node. The status updates are samples of a random process under observation,…
A sensor node that is sending measurement updates regarding some physical phenomenon to a destination is considered. The sensor relies on energy harvested from nature to transmit its updates, and is equipped with a finite $B$-sized battery…
We study age of information in a status updating system that consists of a single sampler, i.e., source node, that sends time-sensitive status updates to a single monitor node through a server node. We first consider a Gilbert-Elliot…

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…
In this paper, we consider a status update system, where an access point collects measurements from multiple sensors that monitor a common physical process, fuses them, and transmits the aggregated sample to the destination over an erasure…
Using age of information as the freshness metric, we examine a multicast network in which real-time status updates are generated by the source and sent to a group of $n$ interested receivers. We show that in order to keep the information…
We study the average Age of Information (AoI) in a system where physical sources produce independent discrete-time updates that are each observed by several sensors. We devise a model that is simple, but still capable to capture the main…
We consider two closely related problems: anomaly detection in sensor networks and testing for infections in human populations. In both problems, we have $n$ nodes (sensors, humans), and each node exhibits an event of interest (anomaly,…
