Agnieszka Janicka

Agnieszka Janicka is a Doctoral Candidate at Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) since 2022, affiliated with the Stochastic Resource Sharing Networks group. Her research focuses on cascading failures in networks, heavy-tailed processes in queueing models, and stochastic optimization techniques like Markov Decision Processes and reinforcement learning.

Education:

• Bachelor's in Applied Mathematics (2020), TU/e
• Master's in Industrial and Applied Mathematics (2022), TU/e
• Certificate in Energy-related Refurbishments (2017), University College of Northern Denmark

Her work contributes to understanding scale-free failures in power transmission and highway networks, combining theoretical analysis with mathematical simulations. She is supervised by Professor Maria Vlasiou and Dr. Fiona Sloothaak and collaborates with EURANDOM, LNMB, and NETWORKS.

Scientific Awards:

• Gold KWG Poster Prize (2023)

Teaching Involvement: She teaches courses including Advanced Simulation, Stochastic Simulation, and Stochastic Simulation and Modeling.
