In a secure coded caching system, a central server balances the traffic flow between peak and off-peak periods by distributing some public data to the users' caches in advance. Meanwhile, these data are securely protected against the…

Cache-aided content delivery is studied in a multi-server system with $P$ servers and $K$ users, each equipped with a local cache memory. In the delivery phase, each user connects randomly to any $\rho$ out of $P$ servers. Thanks to the…

We consider the coded caching system where each user, equipped with a private cache, accesses a distinct r-subset of access caches. A central server housing a library of files populates both private and access caches using uncoded…

This paper presents a novel achievable scheme for coded caching systems with $N$ files and $K$ users, specifically when $N \leq K$. This new scheme employs linear coding both during the placement phase - where cache contents are linear…

We study the problem of coded caching when the server has access to several libraries and each user makes independent requests from every library. The single-library scenario has been well studied and it has been proved that coded caching…
