Feedback holds a pivotal role in practical communication schemes, even though it does not enhance channel capacity. Its main attribute includes adaptability in transmission that allows for a higher rate of convergence of the error…
Received samples of a stochastic process are processed by a server for delivery as updates to a monitor. Each sample belongs to a class that specifies a distribution for its processing time and a function that describes how the value of the…
We study a setting where an intelligent model (e.g., a pre-trained neural network) infers the real-time value of a target signal using data samples transmitted from a remote source. The transmission scheduler decides (i) the freshness of…

Sensor sources submit updates to a monitor through an unslotted, uncoordinated, unreliable multiple access collision channel. The channel is unreliable; a collision-free transmission is received successfully at the monitor with some…
In this paper, we introduce a new data freshness metric, relative Age of Information (rAoI), and examine it in a single server system with various packet management schemes. The (classical) AoI metric was introduced to measure the staleness…
In this paper, we consider the cellular Internet of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), where UAVs sense data for multiple tasks and transmit the data to the base station (BS). To quantify the "freshness" of the data at the BS, we bring in the…
