We introduce the problem of Private Linear Transformation (PLT). This problem includes a single (or multiple) remote server(s) storing (identical copies of) $K$ messages and a user who wants to compute $L$ linear combinations of a…

This paper focuses on the Private Linear Transformation (PLT) problem in the multi-server scenario. In this problem, there are $N$ servers, each of which stores an identical copy of a database consisting of $K$ independent messages, and…

The \emph{file caching} problem is defined as follows. Given a cache of size $k$ (a positive integer), the goal is to minimize the total retrieval cost for the given sequence of requests to files. A file $f$ has size $size(f)$ (a positive…

In this paper we determine the delivery time for a multi-server coded caching problem when the cache size of each user is small. We propose an achievable scheme based on coded cache content placement, and employ zero-forcing techniques at…

We consider a two-layer hierarchical coded caching network where a server with a library of $N$ files is connected to $K_1$ mirrors, each having a cache memory of size $M_1$. Each mirror is further connected to $K_2$ users, each equipped…

We consider the classical uncoded caching problem from an online learning point-of-view. A cache of limited storage capacity can hold $C$ files at a time from a large catalog. A user requests an arbitrary file from the catalog at each time…
