Jerzy K. Filus
received his M.S. degree in Mathematics from the University of Warsaw,
Poland, in 1972 and his Ph.D. from the Systems Research Institute of the
Polish Academy of Sciences in 1979. He was associated, among others,
with the System Research Institute of the Polish Academy of Science, the
Center for Operations Research and Econometrics, Belgium, the University
of Twente, The Netherlands, and the Illinois Institute of Technology,
Chicago, USA. Recently he is a Lecturer in the Dept. of Mathematics and
Computer Sciences at Oakton Community College, Des Plaines, Illinois,
USA.
His research interests have
mainly been focused on applied probability problems with emphasis on
reliability modeling, and multivariate probability distributions and
their extensions towards stochastic processes.
