Scheduling updates from remote sensors is a key task for the internet of things (IoT). In this context, the mathematical concept of age of information is often used to capture the freshness of received data. This is, in turn, relevant to…

We consider a scenario where a monitor is interested in being up to date with respect to the status of some system which is not directly accessible to this monitor. However, we assume a source node has access to the status and can send…
We consider a system of multiple sources, a single communication channel, and a single monitoring station. Each source measures a time-varying quantity with varying levels of accuracy and one of them sends its update to the monitoring…

We study a discrete-time model where each packet has a cost of not being sent -- this cost might depend on the packet content. We study the tradeoff between the age and the cost where the sender is confined to packet-based strategies. The…
Age-of-Information (AoI) is a critical metric for network applications. Existing works mostly address optimization with homogeneous AoI requirements, which is different from practice. In this work, we optimize uplink scheduling for an…
