YEQT XIII : "Data-Driven Analytics and Optimization for Stochastic Systems"
A very nice conference dinner at the PSV stadium! Summary The Young European Queueing Theorists (YEQT) workshops are organized on a yearly basis, and this year the 13th edition of the workshop will take place in October 2019. The aim of these workshops is to bring together young researchers, PhD students or recently appointed lecturers and assistant professors, and world-leading experts in order to share and discuss research related to queueing theory, operations research, applied probability and related areas. This event…

Joost Jorritsma (Eindhoven University of Technology) Typical weighted distance in preferential attachment models - Interpolating small and mini worlds Information diffusion in networks can be modeled by first passage percolation, which can also be seen as an SI (susceptible - infected) model. In this talk I will discuss the model for two (non-spatial) preferential attachment models where the degrees follow a power law with parameter in (2, 3): once a preferential attachment graph on N vertices is created, we equip…

Graph Limits
Summary The workshop will address both the basic theory and the applications of graph limits, focussing on graphons and graphexes, as well as various applications. In the last few years several beautiful and exciting developments have taken place in this area. It is therefore time to bring together researchers from different fields, including probability theory, combinatorics, statistics and algorithmics. The workshop will run from Monday morning 09.00 am till Thursday afternoon 17.00 pm Sponsors Organisers Christian Borgs…
