Minimizing age of information on multi-flow networks.

Age of information studies the period between the moment the update packet is generated and it is received. Therefore, AoI is a more meaningful performance criterion for the applications like real-time control and status updating. In this work, multi-flow - multi-user networks are studied in terms of age of information. The performance of MAD (Maximum Age Difference) algorithm, which is developed for multi-flow networks is investigated depending on the traffic and flow diversity on scheduler.
