Age of information is a new concept that characterizes the freshness of information at end devices. This paper studies the age of information from a scheduling perspective. We consider a wireless broadcast network where a base-station…
When designing a message transmission system, from the point of view of making sure that the information transmitted is as fresh as possible, two rules of thumb seem reasonable: use small buffers and adopt a last-in-first-out policy. In…
This work studies the information freshness of the vehicle-to-infrastructure status updating in Internet of vehicles, which is modeled as a multi-source Ber/Geo/1/1 preemptive queueing system with heterogeneous service time. We pay…
