We investigate the problem of private read update write (PRUW) with heterogeneous storage constrained databases in federated submodel learning (FSL). In FSL a machine learning (ML) model is divided into multiple submodels based on different…
We study the trade-off between Age of Information (AoI) and maximal leakage (MaxL) in discrete-time status updating systems. A source generates time-stamped update packets that are processed by a server that delivers them to a monitor. An…
This paper investigates the optimization of memory sampling in status updating systems, where source updates are published in shared memory, and reader process samples the memory for source updates by paying a sampling cost. We formulate a…
Memory management in lock-free data structures remains a major challenge in concurrent programming. Design techniques including read-copy-update (RCU) and hazard pointers provide workable solutions, and are widely used to great effect.…
Age of Information is a newly introduced metric, getting vivid attention for measuring the freshness of information in real-time networks. This parameter has evolved to guarantee the reception of timely information from the latest status…
This paper considers a cooperative Internet of Things (IoT) system with a source aiming to transmit randomly generated status updates to a designated destination as timely as possible under the help of a relay. We adopt a recently proposed…
This paper studies content caching in cloud-aided wireless networks where small cell base stations with limited storage are connected to the cloud via limited capacity fronthaul links. By formulating a utility (inverse of service delay)…
Consider a stream of status updates generated by a source, where each update is of one of two types: high priority or ordinary (low priority). These updates are to be transmitted through a network to a monitor. However, the transmission…

In this work, a wireless broadcast network with a base station (BS) sending random time-sensitive information updates to multiple users with interference constraints is considered. The Age of Synchronization (AoS), namely the amount of time…
In cellular federated edge learning (FEEL), multiple edge devices holding local data jointly train a neural network by communicating learning updates with an access point without exchanging their data samples. With very limited…
In this paper, we investigate an amplify-and-forward (AF) based two-way cooperative status update system, where two sources aim to exchange status updates with each other as timely as possible with the help of a relay. Specifically, the…
We consider a slotted communication system consisting of a source, a cache, a user and a timestomping adversary. The time horizon consists of total $T$ time slots, such that the source transmits update packets to the user directly over…
Asynchronous Federated Learning (AFL) confronts inherent challenges arising from the heterogeneity of devices (e.g., their computation capacities) and low-bandwidth environments, both potentially causing stale model updates (e.g., local…
In the context of asynchronous concurrent shared-memory systems, a snapshot algorithm allows failure-prone processes to concurrently and atomically write on the entries of a shared array MEM , and also atomically read the whole array.…
In the Internet of Things (IoT) networks, caching is a promising technique to alleviate energy consumption of sensors by responding to users' data requests with the data packets cached in the edge caching node (ECN). However, without an…
For status update systems operating over unreliable energy-constrained wireless channels, we address Weaver's long-standing Level-C question: do my packets actually improve the plant's behavior? Each fresh sample carries a stochastic…
The README file serves as a critical source of information for gaining an overview and helping developers onboard to an Open Source Software (OSS) project. Yet, documentation issues persist; in particular, ``outdated'' documentation is…
Consistent hashing is fundamental to distributed systems, but ring-based schemes can exhibit high peak-to-average load ratios unless they use many virtual nodes, while multi-probe methods improve balance at the cost of scattered memory…
We consider a system consisting of a server, which receives updates for $N$ files according to independent Poisson processes. The goal of the server is to deliver the latest version of the files to the user through a parallel network of $K$…
