We consider a coded cooperative data exchange problem with the goal of generating a secret key. Specifically, we investigate the number of public transmissions required for a set of clients to agree on a secret key with probability one,…
For a network with one sender, $n$ receivers (users) and $m$ possible messages (files), caching side information at the users allows to satisfy arbitrary simultaneous demands by sending a common (multicast) coded message. In the worst-case…
The rate performance of wireless coded caching schemes is typically limited by the lowest achievable per-user rate in the given multicast group, during each transmission time slot. In this paper, we provide a new coded caching scheme,…
Caching is an efficient way to reduce peak-hour network traffic congestion by storing some contents at user's local cache without knowledge of later demands. Maddah-Ali and Niesen initiated a fundamental study of caching systems; they…
We consider the problem of cache-aided Multiuser Private Information Retrieval (MuPIR) which is an extension of the single-user cache-aided PIR problem to the case of multiple users. In MuPIR, each of the $K_{\rm u}$ cache-equipped users…
In this work, we study coded placement in caching systems where the users have unequal cache sizes and demonstrate its performance advantage. In particular, we propose a caching scheme with coded placement for three-user systems that…
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…
It has been recently established that joint design of content delivery and storage (coded caching) can significantly improve performance over conventional caching. This has also been extended to the case when content has non-uniform…
Coded caching (CC) schemes exploit the cumulative cache memory of the users and simple linear coding to turn unicast traffic (individual file requests) into a multicast transmission. For the originally proposed $K$-user single-server/single…
This paper considers a hierarchical caching system where a server connects with multiple mirror sites, each connecting with a distinct set of users, and both the mirror sites and users are equipped with caching memories. Although there…
In this paper we investigate the problem of optimal cache placement under secrecy constraints in heterogeneous networks, where small-cell base stations are equipped with caches to reduce the overall backhaul load. For two models for…
Existing decentralized coded caching solutions cannot guarantee small loads in the general scenario with arbitrary file sizes and cache sizes. In this paper, we propose an optimization framework for decentralized coded caching in the…
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…
The performance of existing coded caching schemes is sensitive to the worst channel quality, a problem which is exacerbated when communicating over fading channels. In this paper, we address this limitation in the following manner: in…
We consider a basic cache network, in which a single server is connected to multiple users via a shared bottleneck link. The server has a database of files (content). Each user has an isolated memory that can be used to cache content in a…
This work considers the coded caching problem with shared caches, where users share the caches, and each user gets access only to one cache. The user-to-cache association is assumed to be known at the server during the placement phase. We…
This paper aims to provide an optimization framework for coded caching that accounts for various heterogeneous aspects of practical systems. An optimization theoretic perspective on the seminal work on the fundamental limits of caching by…
Caching is an efficient way to reduce network traffic congestion during peak hours by storing some content at the user's local cache memory without knowledge of later demands. For the shared-link caching model, Maddah-Ali and Niesen (MAN)…
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…
This paper establishes the fundamental limits of a multi-access system where multiple users communicate to a legitimate receiver in presence of an external warden. Only a specific subset of the users, called covert users, needs their…
