We consider a basic caching system, where a single server with a database of $N$ files (e.g. movies) is connected to a set of $K$ users through a shared bottleneck link. Each user has a local cache memory with a size of $M$ files. The…
Centralized coded caching problem is studied for the two-user scenario, considering heterogeneous cache capacities at the users and private channels from the server to the users, in addition to a shared channel. Optimal caching and delivery…
We consider a cache network in which a single server is connected to multiple users via a shared error free link. The server has access to a database with $N$ files of equal length $F$, and serves $K$ users each with a cache memory of $MF$…
We consider the cache problem introduced by Maddah-ali and Niesen [1] for the $(N,K)=(3,3)$ case, and use the computer-aided approach to derive the tight linear memory-rate trade-off. Two lower bounds $10M+6R\geq 15$ and $5M+4R\geq 9$ are…
Caching is an approach to smoothen the variability of traffic over time. Recently it has been proved that the local memories at the users can be exploited for reducing the peak traffic in a much more efficient way than previously believed.…
Improved lower bounds on the average and the worst-case rate-memory tradeoffs for the Maddah-Ali&Niesen coded caching scenario are presented. For any number of users and files and for arbitrary cache sizes, the multiplicative gap between…
We consider a coded caching problem with multiple demands under a privacy constraint. In this problem, a server with access to \(N\) files serves \(K\) users over a shared link, and each user requests \(L\) distinct files. The privacy…
Maddah-Ali and Niesen, in a seminal paper, introduced the notion of coded caching. The exact nature of the fundamental limits in this context has remained elusive even as several approximate characterizations have been found. A new optimal…
In this work, the peak rate of the caching problem is investigated, under the scenario that the users are with small buffer sizes and the number of users is no less than the amount of files in the server. A novel coded caching strategy is…
Caching at the network edge has emerged as a viable solution for alleviating the severe capacity crunch in modern content centric wireless networks by leveraging network load-balancing in the form of localized content storage and delivery.…
In cache-aided networks, the server populates the cache memories at the users during low-traffic periods, in order to reduce the delivery load during peak-traffic hours. In turn, there exists a fundamental trade-off between the delivery…
In device-to-device (D2D) coded caching problems, it is possible that not all users will make file requests in the delivery phase. Hence, we propose a new D2D centralized coded caching problem, named the 3-user D2D coded caching with two…
The multi-access variant of the coded caching problem in the presence of an external wiretapper is investigated . A multi-access coded caching scheme with $K$ users, $K$ caches and $N$ files, where each user has access to $L$ neighbouring…
This work studies the coded caching problem in a setting where the users are simultaneously endowed with a private cache and a shared cache. The setting consists of a server connected to a set of users, assisted by a smaller number of…
We consider content caching between a service provider and multiple cache-enabled users, using the recently proposed modified coded caching scheme (MCCS) that provides an improved delivery strategy for random user requests. We develop the…
We consider a variant of the coded caching problem where users connect to two types of caches, called private caches and access caches. The problem setting consists of a server having a library of files and a set of access caches. Every…
We propose a new caching scheme where linear combinations of the file segments are cached at the users, for the cases where the number of files is no greater than the number of users. When a user requests a certain file in the delivery…
The tradeoff between the user's memory size and the worst-case download time in the $(H,r,M,N)$ combination network is studied, where a central server communicates with $K$ users through $H$ immediate relays, and each user has local cache…
This paper aims to characterize the memory-rate tradeoff for decentralized caching under nonuniform file popularity and size. We consider a recently proposed decentralized modified coded caching scheme (D-MCCS) and formulate the cache…
Caching is emerging as a vital tool for alleviating the severe capacity crunch in modern content-centric wireless networks. The main idea behind caching is to store parts of popular content in end-users' memory and leverage the locally…
