A source provides status updates to monitors through a network with state defined by a continuous-time finite Markov chain. An age of information (AoI) metric is used to characterize timeliness by the vector of ages tracked by the monitors.…
Remote tracking systems play a critical role in applications such as IoT, monitoring, surveillance and healthcare. In such systems, maintaining both real-time state awareness (for online decision making) and accurate reconstruction of…
Age of Information (AoI) is a recently defined quantity, which measures the freshness of information in a communication scheme. In this paper, we analyze a network that consists of a sensor node, an energy source and a receiver. The energy…
We consider a system where the updates from independent sources are disseminated via a publish-subscribe mechanism. The sources are the publishers and a decision process (DP), acting as a subscriber, derives decision updates from the source…
This paper considers a cooperative Internet of Things (IoT) system with a source aiming to transmit randomly generated status updates to a designated destination as timely as possible under the help of a relay. We adopt a recently proposed…
Content caching at the network edge has been considered an effective way of mitigating backhaul load and improving user experience. Caching efficiency can be enhanced by content recommendation and by keeping the information fresh. To the…
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…
