This $200,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) supports the development of novel stochastic mathematical models that combine queueing theory and advanced probabilistic methods. The research aims to shed new light on how infectious diseases propagate within service systems and broader social networks, quantifying personalized infection risk in crowded environments like hospitals and transportation systems. The project also explores applying these models to understand cybersecurity vulnerabilities, as cryptographic operations can be modeled as tasks in a queue with processing times influenced by various factors. The results will empower public health officials to make data-driven decisions to reduce disease spread and optimize resource allocation, while also contributing to more robust cybersecurity measures. Undergraduate and graduate students will participate in the research activities, supporting STEM workforce development. The award has an expected completion date of July 31, 2027 and is being carried out by Cornell University.
