We consider a fully-connected wireless gossip network which consists of a source and $n$ receiver nodes. The source updates itself with a Poisson process and also sends updates to the nodes as Poisson arrivals. Upon receiving the updates,…

We consider gossiping in a fully-connected wireless network consisting of $n$ nodes. The network receives Poisson updates from a source, which generates new information. The nodes gossip their available information with the neighboring…

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…

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…

We study the version age of information in a multi-hop multi-cast cache-enabled network, where updates at the source are marked with incrementing version numbers, and the inter-update times on the links are not necessarily exponentially…

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,…

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…

A clustered gossip network is considered in which a source updates its information over time, and end-nodes, organized in clusters through clusterheads, are keeping track of it. The goal for the nodes is to remain as fresh as possible,…

We consider a communication system consisting of a server that tracks and publishes updates about a time-varying data source or event, and a gossip network of users interested in closely tracking the event. The timeliness of the information…

We consider information dissemination over a network of gossiping agents (nodes). In this model, a source keeps the most up-to-date information about a time-varying binary state of the world, and $n$ receiver nodes want to follow the…

We consider an information update system on a gossip network, where a source node encodes information into $n$ total keys such that any subset of at least $k+1$ keys can fully reconstruct the original information. This encoding process…

In this paper, we study PUSH-PULL style rumor spreading algorithms in the mobile telephone model, a variant of the classical telephone model in which each node can participate in at most one connection per round; i.e., you can no longer…

We investigate information accuracy in timeliness-based gossip networks where the source evolves according to a continuous-time Markov chain (CTMC) with $M$ states and disseminates status updates to a network of $n$ nodes. In addition to…

Randomized gossip is one of the most popular way of disseminating information in large scale networks. This method is appreciated for its simplicity, robustness, and efficiency. In the "push" protocol, every informed node selects, at every…

We study a pull-based status update communication model where a source node submits update packets to a channel with random transmission delay, at times requested by a remote destination node. The objective is to minimize the average…
