El Posgrado de Ingenier�a de Sistemas de la FIME tiene el gusto de hacer la atenta invitaci�n a su Seminario conjunto UANL-Tec de Monterrey en Investigaci�n de Operaciones, presentando en esta ocasi�n al siguiente ponente:

*Dr. David P. Morton*

*University of Texas at Austin, Austin, EUA.*

*"Rapidly Detecting an Anomaly Spreading Stochastically on a Network"* * Abstract:* We consider an anomaly that spreads according to stochastic dynamics on a network. Subject to a budget constraint, we install sensors on nodes of the network to maximize the probability we detect the anomaly by a time threshold. Using a Monte Carlo approximation of a stochastic integer program, we solve large‐scale problem instances using data from a cellphone service provider.

*Bio sketch: *David Morton is Engineering Foundation Professor in the Graduate Program in Operations Research and Industrial Engineering at The University of Texas at Austin His research interests include computational stochastic programming and simulation based approximations in University of Texas at Austin. His research interests include computational stochastic programming and simulation-based approximations in stochastic programming. He received his PhD in Operations Research from Stanford University, and then worked as a National Research Council Postdoctoral Fellow in the Operations Research Department at the Naval Postgraduate School. He received a PECASE award and was a Fulbright Scholar in the Department of Probability and Mathematical Statistics at Charles University in Prague. Dr. Morton was the recipient of the George E. Nicholson Prize, and was a finalist for the George B. Dantzig Dissertation Award, both sponsored by the Institute for Operations Research and the Management Sciences in 1994.
