We introduce the concept of {\it fresh data trading}, in which a destination user requests, and pays for, fresh data updates from a source provider, and data freshness is captured by the {\it age of information} (AoI) metric. Keeping data…
The proliferation of real-time applications has spurred much interest in data freshness, captured by the {\it age-of-information} (AoI) metric. When strategic data sources have private market information, a fundamental economic challenge is…
In this paper, we consider a discrete-time information-update system, where a service provider can proactively retrieve information from the information source to update its data and users query the data at the service provider. One example…
Fueled by the rapid development of communication networks and sensors in portable devices, today many mobile users are invited by content providers to sense and send back real-time useful information (e.g., traffic observations and sensor…
Today many mobile users in various zones are invited to sense and send back real-time useful information (e.g., traffic observation and sensor data) to keep the freshness of the content updates in such zones. However, due to the sampling…
In Internet of Things (IoT), the freshness of status updates is crucial for mission-critical applications. In this regard, it is suggested to quantify the freshness of updates by using Age of Information (AoI) from the receiver's…
We consider a real-time monitoring system where a source node (with energy limitations) aims to keep the information status at a destination node as fresh as possible by scheduling status update transmissions over a set of channels. The…
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,…
We consider a multi-source network with a common monitor, where fresh updates are generated at each source, following a Poisson process. At any time, at most one source can transmit its update to the monitor, and transmission time for…
Age of Information (AoI) is emerging as a novel metric for measuring information freshness in real-time monitoring systems. For computation-intensive status data, the information is not revealed until being processed. We consider a status…
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…
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…
Age of Information (AoI) has become an important concept in communications, as it allows system designers to measure the freshness of the information available to remote monitoring or control processes. However, its definition tacitly…
Consider a network where a wireless base station (BS) connects multiple source-destination pairs. Packets from each source are generated according to a renewal process and are enqueued in a single-packet queue that stores only the freshest…
The Age of Information (AoI) is a performance metric that quantifies the freshness of data in systems where timely updates are critical. Most state-of-the-art methods typically assume that packets enter the monitored system with zero age,…
Consider a scenario where a source continuously monitors an object and sends time-stamped status updates to a destination through a rate-limited link. In order to measure the "freshness" of the status information available at the…
The last decade has witnessed an unprecedented growth in the demand for data-driven real-time services. These services are fueled by emerging applications that require rapidly injecting data streams and computing updated analytics results…
Many systems necessitate frequent and consistent updates of a specific information. Often this information is updated regularly, where an old packet becomes completely obsolete in the presence of a new packet. In this context, we consider a…
Age of Information (AoI), which measures the time elapsed since the generation of the last received packet at the destination, is a new metric for real-time status update tracking applications. In this paper, we consider a status-update…
Age of information (AoI) is one of the key performance metrics for Internet of things (IoT) systems. Timely status updates are essential for many IoT applications; however, they are subject to strict constraints related on the available…
