This award supports the Seminar on Stochastic Processes 2011 to be held March 24-26, 2011 at the University of California, Irvine. These seminars have been held annually since 1981; they have become the most important regular conference series for probabilists in North America. They bring together a diverse group of accomplished researchers and young investigators in probability and stochastic processes. The primary goal is to provide a platform for the dissemination of the most recent significant progress in research, and to enable participants to discuss their work in an informal atmosphere. Modeled after P.A. Meyers Seminaire de Probabilite, which propelled the French probability school to the forefront of research in the seventies, the Seminar on Stochastic Processes was created in the eighties by Chung, Cinlar, and Getoor to have the same boosting effect on this side of the Atlantic. This initiative had a tremendous impact on the probability community, reaching far beyond the limits of the North American continent. Researchers from all over the world strive for an invitation as peer recognition of their international standing. The list of past invited speakers is a Who's Who in the world of probability. The scientific committee strives to include successful young researchers, minorities and women in the list of speakers. Financial support to attend the conference will preferentially be given to graduate students, postdocs, women, and minorities, as well as to junior faculty who may not otherwise be able to attend the conference. The Seminar on Stochastic Processes is a fixture in probability, and many of the most prominent probabilists make a habit of attending it every year. The morning invited presentations provide a platform for the latest developments in the field. Moreover, the informal format of the afternoon sessions gives graduate students and young researchers a unique opportunity to expose themselves to the most recent research trends by engaging in high level open discussions, and by offering the opportunity to present their own research to leaders in their field. The synergy made possible by this original formula is very rarely found in more traditional meetings.

该奖项支持将于2011年3月24-26日在加州大学欧文分校举行的2011年随机过程研讨会。这些研讨会自1981年以来每年举行一次；它们已成为北美概率学家最重要的定期会议系列。他们聚集了一群在概率和随机过程中有成就的研究人员和年轻的研究人员。主要目标是为传播最新的重大研究进展提供一个平台，并使与会者能够在非正式的气氛中讨论他们的工作。随机过程研讨会仿照P.A.Meyers Seminaire de ProBabilite，后者在70年代将法国概率学派推向研究的前沿，随机过程研讨会由Chung、Cinlar和GToor在80年代创建，在大西洋的这一边具有同样的促进作用。这一倡议对概率界产生了巨大影响，远远超出了北美大陆的范围。来自世界各地的研究人员争取获得邀请，以此作为对他们国际地位的同行认可。过去被邀请的演讲者名单是概率世界中的名人录。科学委员会努力将成功的年轻研究人员、少数族裔和女性纳入演讲者名单。将优先向研究生、博士后、女性和少数族裔以及其他可能无法参加会议的初级教职员工提供参加会议的财政支持。随机过程研讨会是概率学中的固定课程，许多最著名的概率学家都习惯于每年参加。上午的特邀演讲为该领域的最新发展提供了一个平台。此外，下午会议的非正式形式为研究生和年轻研究人员提供了一个独特的机会，通过参与高级别的公开讨论，并通过提供机会向各自领域的领导者展示他们自己的研究，使自己接触到最新的研究趋势。这一原始方案所带来的协同效应在更传统的会议中是很少见的。
