We consider a gossip network consisting of a source generating updates and $n$ nodes connected in a two-dimensional square grid. The source keeps updates of a process, that might be generated or observed, and shares them with the grid…
A gossip network is considered in which a source node updates its status while other nodes in the network aim at keeping track of it as it varies over time. Information gets disseminated by the source sending status updates to the nodes,…
We consider a network consisting of a single source and $n$ receiver nodes that are grouped into equal-sized clusters. We use cluster heads in each cluster to facilitate communication between the source and the nodes within that cluster.…
We consider a gossiping network, where a source node sends updates to a network of $n$ gossiping nodes. Meanwhile, the connectivity topology of the gossiping network changes over time, among a finite number of connectivity ''states,'' such…
We consider a gossiping network where a source forwards updates to a set of $n$ gossiping nodes that are placed in an arbitrary graph structure and gossip with their neighbors. In this paper, we analyze how mobility of nodes affects the…
A source node updates its status as a point process and also forwards its updates to a network of observer nodes. Within the network of observers, these updates are forwarded as point processes from node to node. Each node wishes its…
We consider a network consisting of $n$ nodes connected in a ring formation and a source that generates updates according to a renewal process and disseminates them to the ring network according to a Poisson process. The nodes in the…
We consider a network consisting of a single source and $n$ receiver nodes that are grouped into $m$ equal size communities, i.e., clusters, where each cluster includes $k$ nodes and is served by a dedicated cluster head. The source node…
We consider a source that shares updates with a network of $n$ gossiping nodes. The network's topology switches between two arbitrary topologies, with switching governed by a two-state continuous time Markov chain (CTMC) process.…
We consider a gossip network consisting of a source forwarding updates and $n$ nodes placed geometrically in a ring formation. Each node gossips with $f(n)$ nodes on either side, thus communicating with $2f(n)$ nodes in total. $f(n)$ is a…
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…
We consider a system model with two sources, a reliable source and an unreliable source, who are responsible for disseminating updates regarding a process to an age-based gossip network of $n$ nodes. Nodes wish to have fresh information,…
We consider a network consisting of $n$ nodes that aim to track a continually updating process or event. To disseminate updates about the event to the network, two sources are available, such that information obtained from one source is…
We consider gossip networks consisting of a source that maintains the current version of a file, $n$ nodes that use asynchronous gossip mechanisms to disseminate fresh information in the network, and an oblivious adversary who infects the…
We consider a system with a source which maintains the most current version of a file, and a ring network of $n$ user nodes that wish to acquire the latest version of the file. The source gets updated with newer file versions as a point…
Gossiping is a communication mechanism, used for fast information dissemination in a network, where each node of the network randomly shares its information with the neighboring nodes. To characterize the notion of fastness in the context…
In this paper we study gossip networks where a source observing a process sends updates to an underlying graph. Nodes in the graph communicate to their neighbors by randomly sending updates. Our interest is studying the version age of…
We consider a wireless network where a source generates packets and forwards them to a network containing $n$ nodes. The nodes in the network use the asynchronous push, pull or push-pull gossip communication protocols to maintain the most…
We consider information update systems on a gossip network, which consists of a single source and $n$ receiver nodes. The source encrypts the information into $n$ distinct keys with version stamps, sending a unique key to each node. For…
We consider a fully connected network consisting of a source that maintains the current version of a file, $n$ nodes that use asynchronous gossip mechanisms to disseminate fresh information in the network, and an adversary who infects the…
