Sensor sources submit updates to a monitor through an unslotted, uncoordinated, unreliable multiple access collision channel. The channel is unreliable; a collision-free transmission is received successfully at the monitor with some…

We study age of information in multi-hop multi-cast cache-enabled networks where the inter-update times on the links are not necessarily exponentially distributed. We focus on the set of non-arithmetic distributions for inter-update times,…

Age of Information (AoI) is emerging as a novel metric for measuring information freshness in real-time monitoring systems. For computation-intensive status data, the information is not revealed until being processed. We consider a status…

Received samples of a stochastic process are processed by a server for delivery as updates to a monitor. Each sample belongs to a class that specifies a distribution for its processing time and a function that describes how the value of the…

This paper considers a communication system where a source sends time-sensitive information to its destination. We assume that both arrival and service processes of the messages are memoryless and the source has a single server with no…

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.…

In this work, we study how to optimally manage the freshness of information updates sent from a source node to a destination via a channel. A proper metric for data freshness at the destination is the age-of-information, or simply age,…
