Coded caching is a promising technique to create coded multicast opportunities for cache-aided networks. By splitting each file into $F$ equal packets (i.e., the subpacketization level $F$) and letting each user cache a set of packets, the…

To address the massive growth of data traffic over cellular networks, increasing spatial reuse of the frequency spectrum by the deployment of small base stations (SBSs) has been considered. For rapid deployment of SBSs in the networks,…

This paper explores the multi-access distributed computing (MADC) model, a novel distributed computing framework where mapper and reducer nodes are distinct entities. Unlike traditional MapReduce frameworks, MADC leverages coding-theoretic…
