My name is Eyal Castiel. I am an assistant professor at the university of Twente as a part of the Stochastic Operations Research team since October 2024.
I graduated in 2013 with a bachelor in "Mathematics and social science" from Paris 1, Sorbonne and a Master in Mathematics, specialty "Probability and stochastic models" from Paris 6, Pierre and Marie Curie in 2016. I obtained my PhD in 2019 under the supervision of Florian Simatos and Laurent Miclo at ISAE-Supaero and Toulouse Mathematical Institute. I was a Post-doctoral fellow at Technion, Israel institute of Technology and at Georgia Institute of Technology.
Chess enthusiast, I also enjoy diving when I can.
My main research interests lie in Applied probability and Queuing Theory. More specifically, distributed scheduling, Parallel Server Systems and load balancing. I am particularly interested in time scale separation/homogenization method, scaling limits (functional limit theorems), large scale systems, Brownian approximations/ large deviations and mean field limits/many servers approximations.Â
