We study cyclic scheduling for generate-at-will (GAW) multi-source status update systems with heterogeneous service times and packet drop probabilities, with the aim of minimizing the weighted sum age of information (AoI), called system AoI, or the weighted sum peak AoI (PAoI), called system PAoI. In particular, we obtain well-performing cyclic schedulers which can easily scale to thousands of information sources and which also have low online implementation complexity. The proposed schedulers are comparatively studied against existing scheduling algorithms in terms of computational load and system AoI/PAoI performance, to validate their effectiveness.
