In this work, we investigate the design of information-update systems, where incoming update packets are forwarded to a remote destination through multiple servers (each server can be viewed as a wireless channel). One important performance…
In this research, we study the information freshness in M/G/1 queueing system with a single buffer and the server taking multiple vacations. This system has wide applications in communication systems. We aim to evaluate the information…
Many systems require frequent and regular updates of a certain information. These updates have to be transferred regularly from the source to the destination. We consider scenarios in which an old packet becomes completely obsolete, in the…
In this paper, we study an age of information minimization problem in continuous-time and discrete-time status updating systems that involve multiple packet flows, multiple servers, and transmission errors. Four scheduling policies are…
In this paper, we consider a scenario where a source continuously monitors an object and sends time-stamped status updates to a destination through a rate-limited link. We assume updates arrive randomly at the source according to a…
We study peak Age of Information (PAoI) violation guarantee in a periodic multi-source status update system. The system is served by a shared base station, which requires scheduling. Our main contribution is a randomized scheduling…
In this paper, we consider N information streams sharing a common service facility. The streams are supposed to have different priorities based on their sensitivity. A higher priority stream will always preempt the service of a lower…
Received samples of a stochastic process are processed by a server for delivery as updates to a monitor. Each sample belongs to a class that specifies a distribution for its processing time and a function that describes how the value of the…
Age of Information (AoI) is a crucial metric for quantifying information freshness in real-time systems where the sampling rate of data packets is time-varying. Evaluating AoI under such conditions is challenging, as system states become…
The problem of reducing the age-of-information has been extensively studied in the single-hop networks. In this paper, we minimize the age-of-information in general multihop networks. If the packet transmission times over the network links…
This paper considers a multichannel preemptive-resume priority queueing system with a Poisson input and an arbitrary service time distribution depending on the priority of job. Jobs of the same priority are serviced according to the LIFO…
Use of multi-path network topologies has become a prominent technique to assert timeliness in terms of age of information (AoI) and to improve resilience to link disruptions in communication systems. However, establishing multiple dedicated…
The mathematics of the finite single server queue with Poisson input and semi-Markov service times($M/SM/1/b$) is similar to that used for $BMAP/G/1/b$ systems. This observation results in new analytical formulas for a queue size in the…
A new timeliness metric, called Age-of-Information (AoI), has recently attracted a lot of research interests for real-time applications with information updates. It has been extensively studied for various queueing models based on 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…
We establish the averaging property for a queuing process with one server, M(t)/GI/1. It is a new relation between the output flow rate and the input flow rate, crucial in the study of the Poisson Hypothesis. Its implications include the…
This paper considers a communication system where a source sends time-sensitive information to its destination. We assume that both arrival and service processes of the messages are memoryless and the source has a single server with no…
We consider the problem of minimizing age in a multihop wireless network. There are multiple source-destination pairs, transmitting data through multiple wireless channels, over multiple hops. We propose a network control policy which…
Since Age of Information (AoI) has been proposed as a metric that quantifies the freshness of information updates in a communication system, there has been a constant effort in understanding and optimizing different statistics of the AoI…
We consider a polling system where a group of an infinite number of servers visits sequentially a set of queues. When visited, each queue is attended for a random time. Arrivals at each queue follow a Poisson process, and service time of…
