In this paper, we consider a cache aided network in which each user is assumed to have individual caches, while upon users’ requests, an update message is sent through a common link to all users. First, we formulate a general information theoretic setting ...

Under the paradigm of caching, partial data are delivered before the actual requests of users are known. In this paper, this problem is modeled as a canonical distributed source coding problem with side information, where the side information represents th ...

In this paper, we study the data exchange problem, where a set of users is interested in gaining access to a common file, but where each has only partial knowledge about it as side-information. Assuming that the file is broken into packets, the side-inform ...

We formulate a new variant of the index coding problem, where instead of demanding a specific message, clients are pliable, and are interested in receiving any t messages that they do not have. We term this problem pliable index coding or PICOD(t). We prov ...
The advent of wireless communication technologies has created a paradigm shift in the accessibility of communication. With it has come an increased demand for throughput, a trend that is likely to increase further in the future. A key aspect of these chall ...
Motivated by the caching problem introduced by Maddah-Ali and Niesen, a problem of distributed source coding with side information is formulated, which captures a distinct interesting aspect of caching. For the single-user case, a single-letter characteriz ...
The advent of the Web reshaped the way in which humans memorize information, arguably unlike any other technological advance of the last decades. Rather than remembering the information itself, people are primed to find the needed information through Web s ...
