    • April 30, 2020: Final Camera-ready Abstracts.

    Scope

    The scope of the STOCHMOD 2020 meeting includes both theoretical advances in stochastic modelling techniques and relevant applications. The contribution may lie in the formulation of new stochastic models, in the development of new analytical methods, or in the innovative application of existing models and methods.

    Plenary speakers

    • Prof. Xi-Ren Cao, The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, Hong Kong
    • Prof. Ger Koole, Vrije Universiteit,  The Netherlands
    • Prof. J. George Shanthikumar, Purdue University, USA

    Topics

    Theoretical research topics include but are not restricted to stochastic modelling and methods in:

    • Markov decision processes
    • Stochastic processes
    • Robust and multicriteria decision making
    • Queueing theory
    • Simulation
    • Machine learning and data science
    • Game theory and behavior theory
    • Stochastic programming
    • Approximation, heuristic and asymptotic methods
