Our research areas are around Applied Probability, Stochastic Process, Queueing Theory and their applications in Stochastic Systems. We have been developing models for call centers, data centers and 5g communication systems. We are also interested in developing new mathematical tools for analyzing stochastic models arising from real world systems. Some keywords of our research are as follows.
Methodologies: Applied Probability, Mathematical Engineering, Stochastic Models, Queueing Theory, Mathematical Models
Applications: Service Management, Information Systems, Resource Sharing Systems
We are very open, having been collaborating with many leading researchers in more than ten countries of four continents in the world! Please do not hesitate to contact us for possible collaboration or for joining our group as a member.
