STOCHASTIC ACTIVITY MONTH
QUEUES
& RISK
Mini
courses
March 19
+20
SUMMARY
Both queueing and risk theory are active research areas
in applied probability. Although queueing and risk models are often, via a
common underlying random walk and a duality argument, related to each other,
the two fields developed to a large extent independent of each other. Partly
this is because their application areas are different and partly because
performance measures of interest in the two fields are usually different.
We offer two mini courses by Søren Asmussen
and Hansjörg Albrecher, on March 19 +20.
Earlier in the month, the
workshop on Queues and Risk has taken place
at Eurandom.

Minicourse by S øren Asmussen (Aarhus University)
March 19 + 20, 2013
Monte Carlo
Simulation: Case studies and applications
Asmussen is one of
the leading researchers in both queueing and insurance risk; he is, among many
other things, the author of the books Applied Probability and Queues,
Stochastic Simulation (with Peter Glynn) and Ruin Probabilities (2nd ed. jointly
with Hansjörg Albrecher), and editor-in-chief of the Journal of Applied
Probability and Advances in Applied Probability.

Albrecher (Université de
Lausanne)

Linking Insurance Risk and Queueing: Models and Concepts
He is one of the leading researchers in risk theory and related financial
mathematics. He is co-author of the book Ruin Probabilities (with Asmussen)
and editor of Insurance Mathematics and Economics. Besides that he is
co-editor of the European Actuarial Journal and of Statistics & Risk Modeling,
and Associate Editor of Journal of Applied Probability
and Advances in Applied Probability.
