Centralized Coded Caching with User Cooperation
In this paper, we consider the coded-caching broadcast network with user
cooperation, where a server connects with multiple users and the users can
cooperate with each other through a cooperation network. We propose a
centralized coded caching scheme based on a new deterministic placement
strategy and a parallel delivery strategy. It is shown that the new scheme
optimally allocate the communication loads on the server and users, obtaining
cooperation gain and parallel gain that greatly reduces the transmission delay.
Furthermore, we show that the number of users who parallelly send information
should decrease when the users' caching size increases. In other words, letting
more users parallelly send information could be harmful. Finally, we derive a
constant multiplicative gap between the lower bound and upper bound on the
transmission delay, which proves that our scheme is order optimal.Comment: 9 pages, submitted to ITW201

Spatial networks with wireless applications
Many networks have nodes located in physical space, with links more common
between closely spaced pairs of nodes. For example, the nodes could be wireless
devices and links communication channels in a wireless mesh network. We
describe recent work involving such networks, considering effects due to the
geometry (convex,non-convex, and fractal), node distribution,
distance-dependent link probability, mobility, directivity and interference.Comment: Review article- an amended version with a new title from the origina
