SUMMARY:Information Freshness for Monitoring and Control over Wireless Netw
 orks
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Vishrant Tripathi (Massachusetts Institute of Technolo
 gy (MIT))\n\nAbstract: \nI will motivate information freshness as an essen
 tial ingredient for performing monitoring and control tasks over wireless 
 networks. To this end\, I will introduce the notion of Age-of-Information 
 (AoI) which has become popular in networking literature over the past deca
 de. I will show that networked monitoring and control can be viewed as equ
 ivalent AoI optimization problems\, and discuss how to solve these problem
 s in single and multi hop networks. Next\, I will discuss learning of AoI 
 cost functions (when the mapping between system performance and informatio
 n freshness is unknown and time-varying). For the final part of the talk\,
  I will discuss WiSwarm - a wireless system for communication between mult
 iple UAVs and a central base station - that brings our ideas from theory t
 o the real world.\n
