We are delighted to invite you to the 2027 INFORMS Applied Probability Society (APS) Conference, taking place at Durham University Business School (DH1 1SL), Durham, United Kingdom, from 12 to 15 July 2027. The APS Conference is the premier global gathering for researchers, practitioners and students in applied probability, spanning stochastic modelling, queueing theory, stochastic control and optimisation, simulation, and their applications across service systems, networks, healthcare, energy and finance.
The Programme and Organising Committees at Durham University Business School and the Department of Mathematical Sciences are preparing a rich programme of plenary and keynote lectures, APS prize lectures, contributed and invited sessions, an Early Career Scholars Meeting, and satellite events.
We warmly encourage researchers, academics, practitioners and students working in applied probability and related fields to submit their abstracts for consideration.
