We consider an energy harvesting source that is collecting measurements from a physical phenomenon and sending updates to a destination within a communication session time. Updates incur transmission delays that are function of the energy…
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…
Given $n$ randomly located source-destination (S-D) pairs on a fixed area network that want to communicate with each other, we study the age of information with a particular focus on its scaling as the network size $n$ grows. We propose a…
We quantify, over inter-continental paths, the ageing of TCP packets, throughput and delay for different TCP congestion control algorithms containing a mix of loss-based, delay-based and hybrid congestion control algorithms. In comparing…
We study the scheduling problem for a multi-source single-server generate-at-will (GAW) status update system with sources having heterogeneous service times and weights, with the goal of minimizing the weighted sum age of information (AoI).…
We investigate the performance of a random access network consisting of source-destination dipoles. The source nodes transmit information packets to their destinations over a shared spectrum. All the transmitters in this network adhere to…
This paper considers utilizing the knowledge of age gains to reduce the network average age of information (AoI) in random access with event-driven periodic updating for the first time. Built on the form of slotted ALOHA, we require each…
A resource-constrained system monitors a source of information by requesting a finite number of updates subject to random transmission delays. An a priori fixed update request policy is shown to minimize a polynomial penalty function of the…
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…
Age-of-information is a novel performance metric in communication systems to indicate the freshness of the latest received data, which has wide applications in monitoring and control scenarios. Another important performance metric in these…
Having timely and fresh knowledge about the current state of information sources is critical in a variety of applications. In particular, a status update may arrive at the destination much later than its generation time due to processing…
A source submits status updates to a network for delivery to a destination monitor. Updates follow a route through a series of network nodes. Each node is a last-come-first-served queue supporting preemption in service. We characterize the…
Age of Information (AoI) is emerging as a novel metric for measuring information freshness in real-time monitoring systems. For computation-intensive status data, the information is not revealed until being processed. We consider a status…
Consistency in data storage systems requires any read operation to return the most recent written version of the content. In replicated storage systems, consistency comes at the price of delay due to large-scale write and read operations.…
Consider a scenario where a source continuously monitors an object and sends time-stamped status updates to a destination through a rate-limited link. In order to measure the "freshness" of the status information available at the…
We consider periodical status updates between a transmitter and a legitimate receiver, in the presence of an eavesdropper that is sometimes able to capture pieces of information. We assume that, in the absence of such a threat, the…
In a communication setting where multiple sources share a single channel to provide status updates to a remote monitor, source transmissions need to be scheduled appropriately to maintain timely communication between each of the sources and…
We consider a semantics-aware communication system, where timeliness is the semantic measure, with a source which maintains the most current version of a file, and a network of $n$ user nodes with the goal to acquire the latest version of…
Due to the increasing use of encrypted communication, such as Transport Layer Security (TLS), encrypted cache systems are a promising approach for providing communication efficiency and privacy. Cache-22 is an encrypted cache system (Emura…
We investigate the performance of concurrent remote sensing from independent strategic sources, whose goal is to minimize a linear combination of the freshness of information and the updating cost. In the literature, this is often…
