Andreas Brieden is professor for ‘Statistics and Risk Management’ in the department of Economics and Management at Universität der Bundeswehr München, which position he has held since 2005. He studied Applied Mathematics at University of Trier 1989-94; Dipl.-Math. Dec. 1994; doctorate 1998 with award at Technical University Munich; Dr. habil. 2003; venia legendi ‘Mathematics’. Andreas Brieden published more than30 articles in the context of Discrete and Combinatorial Optimization; in 2013, he was awarded together with Peter Gritzmann and Steffen Borgward the European Excellence in Practice Award of the Association of the European Operational Research Societies within IFORS.
Stefan Pickl is professor for ‘Operations Research’ in the department of computer science at Universität der Bundeswehr München, which position he has held since 2005. He studied mathematics, electrical engineering, and philosophy at TU Darmstadt and EPFL Lausanne 1987-93; Dipl.-Ing.1993; doctorate1998 with award; assistant professor at Cologne University; Dr. habil. 2005; venia legend ‘Mathematics’. Stefan Pickl published more than 80 articles and several books in the context of ‘Modelling, Simulation and Data-Driven Optimization of Dynamical Systems and Networks’. Since 2010, Prof. Pickl is the chair of the Advisory Board of the German OR Society. In 2001, he organized the first Cologne-Twente Workshop on Graphs and Combinatorial Optimization CTW. Markus Siegle is professor for ‘Design of Computer and Communication Systems’ in the department of computer science at Universität der Bundeswehr München, which position he has held since 2003. He studied computer science and electrical engineering at Stuttgart University 1984-89; Dipl.-Inf. 1989; master’s degree 1990 (as Fulbright scholar) at North Carolina State University; researcher at Erlangen University where he obtained the doctoral (1995) and habilitation degree (2002). Markus Siegle published more than 40 articles in the area of modelling, analysis, and verification of probabilistic and non-deterministic concurrent systems, with special focus on performance and dependability. He has been involved in numerous scientific events, e.g. as PC co-chair of the OR 2010 Munich conference and PC co-chair of the QEST 2013 conference.
