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 …

The cost of delay in status updates and their value: Non-linear ageing

A Kosta, N Pappas, A Ephremides… - IEEE Transactions on …, 2020 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
We consider a status update communication system consisting of a source-destination link.
A stochastic process is observed at the source, where samples are extracted at random time …

A framework for characterizing the value of information in hidden Markov models

Z Wang, MA Badiu, JP Coon - IEEE Transactions on …, 2022 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
In this paper, a general framework is formalised to characterise the value of information (VoI)
in hidden Markov models. Specifically, the VoI is defined as the mutual information between …

Minimizing the age of information from sensors with common observations

AE Kalør, P Popovski - IEEE Wireless Communications Letters, 2019 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
We study the average age of information (AoI) in a system where physical sources produce
independent discrete-time updates that are each observed by several sensors. We devise a …

Optimizing the age of information for multi-source information update in Internet of Things

W Pan, Z Deng, X Wang, P Zhou… - IEEE Transactions on …, 2022 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Age of Information (AoI) has recently become a new performance metric that captures the
freshness/timeliness of information at end users in Internet of Things (IoT). Most existing …
