Network Optimization in Dynamic Systems: Fast Adaptation via Zero-Shot Lagrangian Update
I-Hong Hou
This paper addresses network optimization in dynamic systems, where factors such as user composition, service requirements, system capacity, and channel conditions can change abrup…
Second-Order Analysis of CSMA Protocols for Age-of-Information Minimization
Siqi Fan, I-Hong Hou
This paper introduces a general framework to analyze and optimize age-of-information (AoI) in CSMA protocols for distributed uplink transmissions. The proposed framework combines t…
AoI, Timely-Throughput, and Beyond: A Theory of Second-Order Wireless Network Optimization
Daojing Guo, Khaled Nakhleh, I-Hong Hou +2
This paper introduces a new theoretical framework for optimizing second-order behaviors of wireless networks. Unlike existing techniques for network utility maximization, which onl…
Timely Communications for Remote Inference
Md Kamran Chowdhury Shisher, Yin Sun, I-Hong Hou
In this paper, we analyze the impact of data freshness on remote inference systems, where a pre-trained neural network blue infers a time-varying target (e.g., the locations of veh…
Optimizing Age of Information in Random Access Networks: A Second-Order Approach for Active/Passive Users
Siqi Fan, Yuxin Zhong, I-Hong Hou +1
In this paper, we study the moments of the Age of Information (AoI) for both active and passive users in a random access network. In this network, active users broadcast sensing da…
