Methodologies
* Stochastic processes & models
* Queues and queueing networks
* Asymptotic analysis (mean field, fluid approximations, large deviations)
* Discrete event simulation
* Software performance engineering
* Model-checking
* Process algebras, Petri Nets
* Optimization and Control Theory
* Game theory & algorithmic game theory
* Machine Learning and data analytics
Application Areas
* Distributed systems
