      APTP+MS’2018, 12th International Workshop on Applied Problems in Theory of
                  Probabilities and Mathematical Statistics (Summer Session)
  in the framework of the Conference on Information and Telecommunication Technologies
                       and Mathematical Modeling of High-Tech Systems
                             October 22–27, 2018, Lisbon, Portugal
   The 12th International Workshop on Applied Problems in Theory of Probabilities and
Mathematical Statistics (Summer Session) in the framework of the Conference on Information
and Telecommunication Technologies and Mathematical Modeling of High-Tech Systems
has been conducted jointly by Peoples’ Friendship University of Russia (RUDN University),
University of Lisbon and Federal Research Center “Computer Science and Control” of the
Russian Academy of Sciences. The Workshop was held from 22 to 27 October, 2018 at the
University of Lisbon (Lisbon, Portugal).
   The Workshop aimed to discuss contemporary issues of applied probability theory,
stochastic processes, mathematical statistics, stochastic analysis, queuing theory in their
application to the performance analysis and quality of service in 5G networks.
   The Workshop continued the tradition of the Conference on mathematics, computer science
and mathematical modeling problems, annually held in the Peoples’ Friendship University of
Russia (RUDN University), starting almost from the moment of its foundation. Information
and communications technologies, as a component of information and telecommunication
systems, refer to the priority areas of science, technology and engineering in the Russian
Federation, and the development of high-tech systems and the improvement of information
and telecommunication technologies is impossible without the development and application
of mathematical models of their functioning. The aim of the conference is to bring together
Russian and foreign universities, academic and branch institutes, research centers, interested
companies and commercial companies on development and lessons learned, identify the
most relevant areas of research in the field of information and communication technologies,
mathematical modeling, artificial intellect and other important directions for the development
of scientific research and scientific and technical developments.
