The age of information is a measure of the freshness of continually updated information, which has been studied theoretically for a variety of queueing models. We conduct an experimental evaluation of the age of information in various emulated network settings to see how well the queue models approximate a network for the purpose of age. We use CORE and EMANE to deploy a one-dimensional multi-hop...
We propose a model for mobile caching in which the rate of requests for content is dependent on the popularity and the freshness of the information. We model popularity based on the history of requests and freshness based on the age of the content. We consider a discrete time (slotted) system in which new packets arrive at a limited capacity cache at discrete times. We prove that the optimal policy...
This work focuses on evaluating a new metric for the timeliness of information in a status monitoring system, referred to as the age of information or the status age. Investigation into the age of information metric is fairly recent and has primarily been focused on theoretical analysis, and there has been no evaluation of the metric in a realistic system of networked nodes. We evaluate the age metric...
We consider the system where a source randomly generates status update messages and transmits them via a network cloud to the intended destination. These update message can take different times to traverse the network, which we model as exponential service times, and may result in packets reaching the destination out of order, rendering some of the earlier transmissions obsolete. We analyze the status...
We study cellular-like wireless networks in which the cells may overlap substantially, and a common channel is used for all cells. Thus, transmissions intended for one destination (or base station) can cause interference at neighboring destinations. We assume the use of a ??collision-channel?? model, in which arbitrary communication and interference regions are associated with each destination. The...
