We consider the cache problem introduced by Maddah-ali and Niesen [1] for the $(N,K)=(3,3)$ case, and use the computer-aided approach to derive the tight linear memory-rate trade-off. Two lower bounds $10M+6R\geq 15$ and $5M+4R\geq 9$ are…

We consider a basic cache network, in which a single server is connected to multiple users via a shared bottleneck link. The server has a database of files (content). Each user has an isolated memory that can be used to cache content in a…
