We consider a system with a single source that measures/tracks a time-varying quantity and periodically attempts to report these measurements to a monitoring station. Each update from the source has to be scheduled on one of K available…
Recent trends in communication networks have focused on Quality of Service (QoS) requirements expressed through timing metrics such as latency or Age of Information (AoI). A possible way to achieve this is coded multipath communication:…
Age of Information (AoI) is a critical metric for several Internet of Things (IoT) applications, where sensors keep track of the environment by sending updates that need to be as fresh as possible. The development of edge computing…
The notion of age-of-information (AoI) is investigated in the context of large-scale wireless networks, in which transmitters need to send a sequence of information packets, which are generated as independent Bernoulli processes, to their…
We focus on a system in which a set of two-state Markov sources report status update to a common receiver over a shared wireless channel. Inspired by practical IoT networks, we consider three variations of ALOHA as medium access protocol:…

We consider information update systems on a gossip network, which consists of a single source and $n$ receiver nodes. The source encrypts the information into $n$ distinct keys with version stamps, sending a unique key to each node. For…
We propose a variant of the Age of Information (AoI) metric called Channel-Aware Age of Information (CA-AoI). Unlike AoI, CA-AoI takes into account the channel conditions between the source and the intended destination to compute the "age"…

We consider a multi-process remote estimation system observing $K$ independent Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes. In this system, a shared sensor samples the $K$ processes in such a way that the long-term average sum mean square error (MSE) is…
Age-of-information (AoI) is a metric quantifying information freshness at the receiver. It captures the delay together with packet loss and packet generation rate. However, the existing literature focuses on average or peak AoI and neglects…

An information source generates independent and identically distributed status update messages from an observed random phenomenon which takes $n$ distinct values based on a given pmf. These update packets are encoded at the transmitter node…

This paper considers transmitting a sequence of messages (a streaming source) over a packet erasure channel. In each time slot, the source constructs a packet based on the current and the previous messages and transmits the packet, which…
