In this work, we investigate the design of information-update systems, where incoming update packets are forwarded to a remote destination through multiple servers (each server can be viewed as a wireless channel). One important performance…
In this paper, we consider the problem of optimizing the freshness of status updates that are sent from a large number of low-power source nodes to a common access point. The source nodes utilize carrier sensing to reduce collisions and…
We consider a cache updating system with a source, a cache and a user. There are $n$ files. The source keeps the freshest version of the files which are updated with known rates $\lambda_i$. The cache downloads and keeps the freshest…
Several real-time delay-sensitive applications pose varying degrees of freshness demands on the requested content. The performance of cache replacement policies that are agnostic to these demands is likely to be sub-optimal. Motivated by…
We consider the problem of optimizing the freshness of status updates that are sent from a large number of low-power sources to a common access point. The source nodes utilize carrier sensing to reduce collisions and adopt an asynchronized…
We consider an information updating system where a source produces updates as requested by a transmitter. The transmitter further processes these updates in order to generate $partial$ $updates$, which have smaller information compared to…
This study considers a wireless network where multiple nodes transmit status updates to a base station (BS) via a shared, error-free channel with limited bandwidth. The status updates arrive at each node randomly. We use the Age of…
This article introduces a novel family of decentralised caching policies, applicable to wireless networks with finite storage at the edge-nodes (stations). These policies are based on the Least-Recently-Used replacement principle, and are,…
Designing protocols and formulating convenient programming units of abstraction for sensor networks is challenging due to communication errors and platform constraints. This paper investigates properties and implementation reliability for a…
We present a data-adaptive method for parameter-efficient fine-tuning of large neural networks. Standard low-rank adaptation methods improve efficiency by restricting each layer update to a fixed low-rank form, but this static…
A status updating system is considered in which a source updates a destination over an erasure channel. The utility of the updates is measured through a function of their age-of-information (AoI), which assesses their freshness. Correlated…
Distributed filesystem metadata updates are typically synchronous. This creates inherent challenges for access efficiency, load balancing, and directory contention, especially under dynamic and skewed workloads. This paper argues that…
Information source sampling and update scheduling have been treated separately in the context of real-time status update for age of information optimization. In this paper, a unified sampling and scheduling ($\mathcal{S}^2$) approach is…
Learning from past experience benefits from two complementary forms of memory: episodic traces -- raw trajectories of what happened -- and consolidated abstractions distilled across many episodes into reusable, schema-like lessons. Recent…
Mobile edge caching can effectively reduce service delay but may introduce information staleness, calling for timely content refreshing. However, content refreshing consumes additional transmission resources and may degrade the delay…
Remote direct memory access (RDMA) allows a machine to directly read from and write to the memory of remote machine, enabling high-throughput, low-latency data transfer. Ensuring correctness of RDMA programs has only recently become…
Modern codebases evolve continuously: files are renamed or deleted; public APIs drift; behavior shifts within otherwise familiar modules. A model trained yesterday to map a developer's natural-language question to the exact set of…
Reliable storage emulations from fault-prone components have established themselves as an algorithmic foundation of modern storage services and applications. Most existing reliable storage emulations are built from storage services…
Timely information updates are critical to time-sensitive applications in networked monitoring and control systems. In this paper, the problem of real-time status update is considered for a cognitive radio network (CRN), in which the…
In this paper, we consider a status update system, in which update packets are sent to the destination via a wireless medium that allows for multiple rates, where a higher rate also naturally corresponds to a higher error probability. The…
