We study the coexistence of high throughput traffic flows with status update flows that require timely delivery of updates. A mix of these flows share an end-to-end path that includes a WiFi access network followed by paths over the…
One of the big challenges in ad hoc network design is packet routing. Studies have shown that on-demand routing protocols perform better than table-driven routing protocols. In order to avoid route discovery for each packet, on-demand…
In this work, we study the freshness and significance of information in an IoT status update system in which an Energy Harvesting (EH) device samples an information source and forwards update packets to a destination node via a direct…
With the surge in IoT devices ranging from wearables to smart homes, prompt transmission is crucial. The Age of Information (AoI) emerges as a critical metric in this context, representing the freshness of the information transmitted across…
Energy in today's short-range wireless communication is mostly spent on the analog- and digital hardware rather than on radiated power. Hence, purely information-theoretic considerations fail to achieve the lowest energy per information bit…

We introduce a novel network-adaptive algorithm that is suitable for alleviating network packet losses for low-latency interactive communications between a source and a destination. Our network-adaptive algorithm estimates in real-time the…
Cross-layer optimization solutions have been proposed in recent years to improve the performance of network users operating in a time-varying, error-prone wireless environment. However, these solutions often rely on ad-hoc optimization…
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…
In this paper, we consider a discrete-time information-update system, where a service provider can proactively retrieve information from the information source to update its data and users query the data at the service provider. One example…
NB-Fi is a new low-power wide-area network technology, which has become widely used for smart cities, smart grids, the Industrial Internet of Things, and telemetry applications. Although many countries use NB-Fi, almost no papers study…
We consider an information update system consisting of $N$ sources sending status packets at random instances according to a Poisson process to a remote monitor through a single server. We assume a heteregeneous server with exponentially…
Our objective is to provide guaranteed packet delivery service in time constrained sensor networks. The wireless network is a highly variable environment, where available link bandwidth may vary with network load. Since multimedia…
Popular methods to quantify transmitted data quality are the Age of Information (AoI), the Query Age of Information (QAoI), and the Age of Incorrect Information (AoII). We consider these metrics in a point-to-point wireless communication…
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…
Translating security intent into deployable network enforcement rules and maintaining their effectiveness despite evolving cyber threats remains a largely manual process in most Security Operations Centers (SOCs). In large and heterogeneous…
Fast rate adaptation has been established as an effective way to improve the PHY-layer raw date rate of wireless networks. However, within the current IEEE 802.11 legacy, MAC-layer throughput is dominated by users with the lowest data…
The design and optimization of wireless networks have mostly been based on strong mathematical and theoretical modeling. Nonetheless, as novel applications emerge in the era of 5G and beyond, unprecedented levels of complexity will be…
Information-driven networks include a large category of networking systems, where network nodes are aware of information delivered and thus can not only forward data packets but may also perform information processing. In many situations,…
