Age of information: An introduction and survey

RD Yates, Y Sun, DR Brown, SK Kaul… - IEEE Journal on …, 2021 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
We summarize recent contributions in the broad area of age of information (AoI). In
particular, we describe the current state of the art in the design and optimization of low …

The age of information: Real-time status updating by multiple sources

RD Yates, SK Kaul - IEEE Transactions on Information Theory, 2018 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
We examine multiple independent sources providing status updates to a monitor through
simple queues. We formulate an age of information (AoI) timeliness metric and derive a …

Age of information in random access channels

X Chen, K Gatsis, H Hassani… - IEEE Transactions on …, 2022 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
In applications of remote sensing, estimation, and control, timely communication is critical
but not always ensured by high-rate communication. This work proposes decentralized age …

The age of information in networks: Moments, distributions, and sampling

RD Yates - IEEE Transactions on Information Theory, 2020 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
A source provides status updates to monitors through a network with state defined by a
continuous-time finite Markov chain. An age of information (AoI) metric is used to …

Sampling for data freshness optimization: Non-linear age functions

Y Sun, B Cyr - Journal of Communications and Networks, 2019 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
In this paper, we study how to take samples at a data source for improving the freshness of
received data samples at a remote receiver. We use non-linear functions of the age of …

Information freshness in cache updating systems

M Bastopcu, S Ulukus - IEEE Transactions on Wireless …, 2020 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
We consider a cache updating system with a source, a cache and a user. There are n files.
The source keeps the freshest version of the files which are updated with known rates λ i …

Who should Google Scholar update more often?

M Bastopcu, S Ulukus - IEEE INFOCOM 2020-IEEE Conference …, 2020 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
We consider a resource-constrained updater, such as Google Scholar, which wishes to
update the citation records of a group of researchers, who have different mean citation rates …

Age of information for updates with distortion: Constant and age-dependent distortion constraints

M Bastopcu, S Ulukus - IEEE/ACM Transactions on Networking, 2021 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
We consider an information update system where an information receiver requests updates
from an information provider in order to minimize its age of information. The updates are …

Scheduling to minimize age of synchronization in wireless broadcast networks with random updates

H Tang, J Wang, Z Tang, J Song - IEEE Transactions on …, 2020 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
In this work, a wireless broadcast network with a base station (BS) sending random time-
sensitive information updates to multiple users under bandwidth constraint is considered. To …

WiFresh: Age-of-information from theory to implementation

I Kadota, MS Rahman… - … Conference on Computer …, 2021 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Emerging applications, such as smart factories and fleets of drones, increasingly rely on
sharing time-sensitive information for monitoring and control. In such application domains, it …
