SMSA 2026 Workshop
16th Workshop on Stochastic Models, Statistics and Their Applications
March 18th - 20th, 2026, at University of Würzburg
Following the successful previous workshops, the conference will put together recent advances and trends in areas related to stochastic modeling, statistical inference and their applications. Contributions motivated by or addressing issues in engineering, industry and natural sciences are particularly welcomed, as several focused sessions will be devoted to such topics. The workshop aims at facilitating the exchange of research ideas, stimulating collaboration and promoting young researchers.
