The workshop participant geography over years has covered Russia, the USA, Canada, India, Israel, Austria, Sweden. This time, the event has gathered around a hundred online and offline participants from Russia, India, Hungary, Nigeria, Czech Republic, UK, and Iceland. The agenda includes 50 keynote lectures, presentations, short communications, and tutorials. The workshop is attended offline by both Russian and foreign scientists, in particular a delegation from India. Specifically, plenary talks on August 23rd were given by Abhijit Datta Banik, Assistant Professor at the School of Basic Sciences, Indian Institute of Technology, Bhubaneswar, and Achyutha Krishnamoorthy, Honorary Director at the Center for Research in Mathematics of CMS College Cottayam.
This year, the workshop will specially focus on discussing emerging computing systems, including quantum computing. Presentations will address problems in stochastic model stability and productivity, as well as applications of the queuing and applied probability theories in the analysis of high-performance and distributed computing systems.
– We always try to be a step ahead. Even if mathematics, unlike engineering, requires time for mastering new systems and does not produce answers instantly, the results of analyzing emerging systems are in high demand; this is now a hot topic, – Alexander Rumyantsev remarks.
On August 24 the workshop will dedicate a special track to the memory of Vladimir Kalashnikov (1942–2001) – an outstanding Russian mathematician. The final event of the workshop on August 25 will be the annual Youth School for students and early-career researchers.
