SUMMARY:Scheduling for AoI: Distributed Protocols\, Correlated Sources\, an
 d Non-Uniform Update Sizes
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Vishrant Tripathi (Purdue University\, USA)\n\nAbstrac
 t: \nI will cover three of our recent works on age optimal scheduling prob
 lems in wireless networks. First\, I will discuss how to extend the perfor
 mance guarantees of centralized max-weight style protocols to distributed 
 CSMA style protocols in the AoI setting. Second\, I will introduce a corre
 lated monitoring problem\, for which I will establish that simple AoI sche
 duling policies are nearly optimal. Third\, I will discuss how to extend m
 ax-weight style Lyapunov policies to a setting where sources send differen
 tly sized updates. Together\, the three works tackle open questions in wir
 eless scheduling for real-time applications.\nShort Bio:\nVishrant Tripath
 i is an Assistant Professor in the ECE department at Purdue University\, w
 here he leads the Multi-Agent Intelligent Networks (MAIN) group. His resea
 rch interests lie in the optimization of networks - with application areas
  including multi-agent robotics\, networked control\, federated learning\,
  and edge computing. Prior to this\, he obtained a Ph.D. in the EECS depar
 tment at MIT\, working with Prof. Eytan Modiano. He has also spent time wo
 rking on data-center network optimization at Google.\n
