We examine a source providing status updates to monitors through a network with state defined by a continuous-time finite Markov chain. Using an age of information (AoI) metric, we characterize timeliness by the vector of ages tracked by the monitors. Based on a stochastic hybrid systems (SHS) approach, we derive first-order linear differential equations for…
