Popular methods to quantify transmitted data quality are the Age of Information (AoI), the Query Age of Information (QAoI), and the Age of Incorrect Information (AoII). We consider these metrics in a point-to-point wireless communication…
We consider the problem of minimizing age in a multihop wireless network. There are multiple source-destination pairs, transmitting data through multiple wireless channels, over multiple hops. We propose a network control policy which…
In a communication setting where multiple sources share a single channel to provide status updates to a remote monitor, source transmissions need to be scheduled appropriately to maintain timely communication between each of the sources and…
In this paper, we study a real-time monitoring system in which multiple source nodes are responsible for sending update packets to a common destination node in order to maintain the freshness of information at the destination. Since it may…
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 consider a slotted-time system with a transmitter-receiver pair. In the system, a transmitter observes a dynamic source and sends updates to a remote receiver through a communication channel. We assume that the channel is error-free but…
In this paper, we aim to design an optimal sampler for a system in which fresh samples of a signal (source) are sent through an unreliable channel to a remote estimator, and acknowledgments are sent back over a feedback channel. Both the…
A sensor samples and transmits status updates to a destination through a wireless channel that wears out over time and with every use. At each time slot, the sensor can decide to sample and transmit a fresh status update, restore the…
Consider a message processing system whose objective is to produce the most current information as measured by the quantity known as "age of information". We have argued in previous papers that if we are allowed to design the message…
We consider a network consisting of $n$ nodes that aim to track a continually updating process or event. To disseminate updates about the event to the network, two sources are available, such that information obtained from one source is…
In this paper, a real-time Internet of Things (IoT) monitoring system is considered in which the IoT devices are scheduled to sample underlying physical processes and send the status updates to a common destination. In a real-world IoT, due…
The time average expected age of information (AoI) is studied for status updates sent from an energy-harvesting transmitter with a finite-capacity battery. The optimal scheduling policy is first studied under different feedback mechanisms…
In this paper, we study how to collect fresh data in time-varying networks with power constrained users. We measure data freshness from the perspective of the central controller by using the metric Age of Information, namely the time…
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…
The freshness of information in real-time monitoring systems has received increasing attention, with Age of Information (AoI) emerging as a novel metric for measuring information freshness. In many applications, update packets need to be…
We investigate optimal encoding and retrieval of digital data, when the storage/communication medium is described by quantum mechanics. We assume an m-ary alphabet with arbitrary prior distribution, and an n-dimensional quantum system.…
We consider the problem of slotted asynchronous coded communication, where in each time frame (slot), the transmitter is either silent or transmits a codeword from a given (randomly selected) codebook. The task of the decoder is to decide…
For status update systems operating over unreliable energy-constrained wireless channels, we address Weaver's long-standing Level-C question: do my packets actually improve the plant's behavior? Each fresh sample carries a stochastic…
Neurons in the nervous system convey information to higher brain regions by the generation of spike trains. An important question in the field of computational neuroscience is how these sensory neurons encode environmental information in a…
We consider an information updating system where an information provider and an information receiver engage in an update process over time. Different from the existing literature where updates are countable (hard) and take effect either…
