The seventh international Conference on Stochastic Networks will be held June 19-24, 2006 at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. This conference will continue a tradition of similar meetings held at irregular intervals over the last 20 years or so, starting with the one organized by Peter Glynn and Tom Kurtz in Madison in 1987, continuing with conferences in Minneapolis, Edinburgh, Madison, Stanford and Montréal. These meetings have brought together mathematicians and applied researchers who share an interest in stochastic network models.

Like its predecessors, the 2006 Stochastic Networks Conference (sponsored by US Army Research Office and the University of Illinois Applied Mathematics Program) will emphasize new model structures and new mathematical problems that are motivated by contemporary developments in wireless networks, Internet, biology, manufacturing, and mathematical methods for stochastic network analysis. There will be roughly twenty invited talks over a six-day period (Monday through Saturday), with plenty of time in the interstices for informal discussions. In addition, there will be a poster session for contributed papers.
