This paper investigates the average age of information (AoI) minimization in status update systems in which the update packets are transmitted with fixed rate. It is assumed that the source avoids queue-induced delay by generating and…
Age of information (AoI) is a time-evolving measure of information freshness, that tracks the time since the last received fresh update was generated. Analyzing peak and average AoI, two time average metrics of AoI, for various continuous…
We consider a communication system in which status updates arrive at a source node, and should be transmitted through a network to the intended destination node. The status updates are samples of a random process under observation,…
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 a system where the updates from independent sources are disseminated via a publish-subscribe mechanism. The sources are the publishers and a decision process (DP), acting as a subscriber, derives decision updates from the source…
Efficient sampling and remote estimation are critical for a plethora of wireless-empowered applications in the Internet of Things and cyber-physical systems. Motivated by such applications, this work proposes decentralized policies for the…
We consider a real-time status update system consisting of a source-destination network. A stochastic process is observed at the source, and samples, so called status updates, are extracted at random time instances, and delivered to the…
Age of Information (AoI) has emerged as an important quality-of-service measure for applications that prioritize delivery of the freshest information, e.g., virtual or augmented reality over mobile devices and wireless sensor networks used…
Status update systems consist of sensors that take measurements of a physical parameter and transmit them to a remote receiver. Age of Information (AoI) has been studied extensively as a metric for the freshness of information in such…
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 later than its generation time due to processing and…
A source provides status updates to monitors through a network with state defined by a continuous-time finite Markov chain. An age of information (AoI) metric is used to characterize timeliness by the vector of ages tracked by the monitors.…
We study the information freshness under three different source aware packet management policies in a status update system consisting of two independent sources and one server. The packets of each source are generated according to the…
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…
The study of optimal preemption policies for status update systems has been a recurring topic in the age of information (AoI) literature, where threshold-based structures have been shown to be optimal under a generate-at-will update…
We investigate the age of information (AoI) in a scenario where energy-harvesting devices send status updates to a gateway following the slotted ALOHA protocol and receive no feedback. We let the devices adjust the transmission…
A queueing system handling a sequence of message arrivals is considered where each message obsoletes all previous messages. The objective is to assess the freshness of the latest message/information that has been successfully transmitted,…
Age of information (AoI) is one of the key performance metrics for Internet of things (IoT) systems. Timely status updates are essential for many IoT applications; however, they are subject to strict constraints related on the available…
We study the average Age of Information (AoI) and peak AoI (PAoI) of a dual-queue status update system that monitors a common stochastic process. Although the double queue parallel transmission is instrumental in reducing AoI, the out of…
In applications of remote sensing, estimation, and control, timely communication is not always ensured by high-rate communication. This work proposes distributed age-efficient transmission policies for random access channels with $M$…
Timely and informative data dissemination in communication networks is essential for enhancing system performance and energy efficiency, as it reduces the transmission of outdated or redundant data. Timeliness metrics, such as Age of…
