When designing a message transmission system, from the point of view of making sure that the information transmitted is as fresh as possible, two rules of thumb seem reasonable: use small buffers and adopt a last-in-first-out policy. In…
We study a setting where an intelligent model (e.g., a pre-trained neural network) infers the real-time value of a target signal using data samples transmitted from a remote source. The transmission scheduler decides (i) the freshness of…
