The groundbreaking metric age of information (AoI) has been introduced to measure information freshness in communication networks. As transformational as it is, AoI metric falls short in some applications, such as remote monitoring, since…
In this paper, we examine a multi-sensor system where each sensor monitors multiple dynamic information processes and transmits updates over a shared communication channel. These updates may include correlated information across the various…

In this paper, a real-time Internet of Things (IoT) monitoring system is considered in which multiple IoT devices must transmit timely updates on the status information of a common underlying physical process to a common destination. In…
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…
This paper studies information freshness in information update systems operated with TDMA and FDMA. Information freshness is characterized by a recently introduced metric, age of information (AoI), defined as the time elapsed since the…
We derive key features of the Age-of-Information distribution in a system whose activities are strictly limited to periodic instances on a global time grid. In particular, one agent periodically generates updates while the other agent…
We analyze Age of Information (AoI) in wireless networks where nodes use a spatially adaptive random access scheme to send status updates to a central base station. We show that the set of achievable AoI in this setting is convex, and…
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…
Age of Information is a measure of the freshness of status updates in monitoring applications and update-based systems. We study a real-time remote sensing scenario with a sensor which is restricted by time-varying energy constraints and…
