We study the design of a goal-oriented sampling and scheduling strategy through a channel with highly variable two-way random delay, which can exhibit memory (e.g., Delay and Disruption Tolerant Networks). The objective of the communication…
The Goal-oriented Communication (GoC) paradigm breaks the separation between communication and the content of the data, tailoring communication decisions to the specific needs of the receiver and targeting application performance. While…
Goal-oriented communication (GoC) is a form of semantic communication where the effectiveness of information transmission is measured by its impact on achieving the desired goal. In Internet-of-Things (IoT) networks, GoC can enable sensors…
We study a goal-oriented communication system in which a source monitors an environment that evolves as a discrete-time, two-state Markov chain. At each time slot, a controller decides whether to sample the environment and if so whether to…
Goal-oriented communication shifts the focus from merely delivering timely information to maximizing decision-making effectiveness by prioritizing the transmission of high-value information. In this context, we introduce the Goal-oriented…
Graph domain adaptation has recently enabled knowledge transfer across different graphs. However, without the semantic information on target graphs, the performance on target graphs is still far from satisfactory. To address the issue, we…
Goal-oriented communication is a new paradigm that considers the meaning of transmitted information to optimize communication. One possible application is the remote monitoring of a process under communication costs: scheduling updates…
Taking inspiration from linguistics, the communications theoretical community has recently shown a significant recent interest in pragmatic , or goal-oriented, communication. In this paper, we tackle the problem of pragmatic communication…
We propose Goal-Oriented Random Access (GORA), where transmitters jointly optimize what to send and when to access the shared channel to a common access point, considering the ultimate goal of the information transfer at its final…
Motivated by cooperative distributed networks in which users dynamically alternate between transmit and receive modes under half-duplex constraints, this paper studies the Age of Information (AoI) in a distributed multi-user network using…

Age of Incorrect Information (AoII) is a newly introduced performance metric that considers communication goals. Therefore, comparing with traditional performance metrics and the recently introduced metric - Age of Information (AoI), AoII…
A sensor observes a random phenomenon and transmits updates about the observed phenomenon to a remote monitor. The sensor may experience intermittent failures in which case the monitor will not receive any updates until the sensor has…
This paper considers target tracking based on a beacon signal's time-difference-of-arrival (TDOA) to a group of cooperating sensors. The sensors receive a reflected signal from the target where the time-of-arrival (TOA) renders the distance…
