Strategic Persuasion Through Information Timeliness
Ahmet Bugra Gundogan, Melih Bastopcu
We study a dynamic strategic communication problem in which a sender controls the timing of truthful updates from binary continuous-time Markov sources. The receiver chooses betwee…
Timely Information for Strategic Persuasion
Ahmet Bugra Gundogan, Melih Bastopcu
This work investigates a dynamic variant of Bayesian persuasion, in which a strategic sender seeks to influence a receiver's belief over time through controlling the timing of the…
Characterizing Information Accuracy in Timeliness-Based Gossip Networks
Emirhan Tekez, Melih Bastopcu, Sinan Gezici
We investigate information accuracy in timeliness-based gossip networks where the source evolves according to a continuous-time Markov chain (CTMC) with states and disseminates…
How to Maximize Efficiency in Systems with Exhausted Workers
Elif Beray Sariisik, Melih Bastopcu, Nail Akar +1
We consider the problem of assigning tasks efficiently to a set of workers that can exhaust themselves as a result of processing tasks. If a worker is exhausted, it will take a lon…
Distributed Offloading in Multi-Access Edge Computing Systems: A Mean-Field Perspective
Shubham Aggarwal, Muhammad Aneeq uz Zaman, Melih Bastopcu +2
Multi-access edge computing (MEC) technology is a promising solution to assist power-constrained IoT devices by providing additional computing resources for time-sensitive tasks. I…
Fully Decentralized Computation Offloading in Priority-Driven Edge Computing Systems
Shubham Aggarwal, Melih Bastopcu, Muhammad Aneeq uz Zaman +3
We develop a novel framework for fully decentralized offloading policy design in multi-access edge computing (MEC) systems. The system comprises power-constrained user equipmen…
