Stochastic Networks Conference 2016

该奖项支持将于2016年6月20日至24日在加州大学圣地亚哥分校举行的随机网络会议。2016年随机网络会议将为来自不同定量学科的研究人员提供一个重要的论坛，包括数学，概率论，运筹学，计算机科学，电气，机械和工业工程，聚集在一起，听取和讨论与随机网络相关的最新研究进展。该计划邀请的演讲者中包括广泛的领先研究人员，包括一些初级研究人员，未被充分代表的少数民族或妇女，以及高级研究人员。参与者支持将帮助早期职业研究人员、未被充分代表的少数民族和妇女参加会议，讨论和展示他们的工作。随机网络是一个多方面的研究领域，涉及受随机变化影响的网络的建模、稳定性、控制、性能、近似和设计。这一领域的研究受到不同科学和工程领域应用的强烈推动。应用领域的例子包括电信、计算机网络、高科技制造系统、服务网络、社会和生物网络以及卫生保健管理。随机网络的研究产生了具有挑战性和微妙的数学问题，其解决方案往往需要从几个数学分支的思想和技术的创新组合。上述许多方面将在会议上进行讨论。

This award supports the Stochastic Networks Conference to be held June 20-24, 2016 at the University of California, San Diego. Information about the conference is available through the conference website at http://stochasticnetworks2016.ucsd.edu/ The 2016 Stochastic Networks Conference will provide a key forum for researchers from different quantitative disciplines, including mathematics, probability, operations research, computer science, electrical, mechanical and industrial engineering, to come together to hear and discuss the latest research developments related to stochastic networks. The program includes a broad spectrum of leading researchers amongst the invited speakers, including some speakers who are junior researchers, underrepresented minorities or women, as well as senior researchers. Participant support will help early career researchers, underrepresented minorities and women attend the conference to discuss and present their work.Stochastic networks is a multifaceted area of research concerned with the modeling, stability, control, performance, approximation, and design of networks which are subject to the effects of stochastic variability. Research in this area is strongly motivated by applications in diverse domains of science and engineering. Examples of application areas include telecommunications, computer networks, high-tech manufacturing systems, service networks, social and biological networks, and health care management. The study of stochastic networks gives rise to challenging and subtle mathematical problems, whose solution often requires an innovative combination of ideas and techniques from several branches of mathematics. Many of the above aspects will be discussed at the conference.
