I am a researcher in the fields of inventory control, stochastic modeling and system dynamics (Scopus, Google Scholar). Also I am the co-founder of Stochastic and Engineering Research Group (SERG-LABS). With our research group, we are running projects on different applications of stochastic processes to real problems. A complete list of our research interests are given below:
- Inventory Control and Management
- Maintenance and Service Systems
- Stochastic Modeling and Its Applications
- System Dynamics Modeling and Methodology
- Data Science and Machine Learning
