Short Bio
Esther Frostig received D.Sc degree in Operations Research from the Technion-Israel Institute of technology in 1984 and joined the department of statistics at the University of Haifa in 1986. She had visiting positions in the College of Management at Georgia Tech, State University of Iowa and the University of Lausanne. She is a member of the editorial board of Methodology and Computing in Applied Probability. Her research interests are queueing systems, ruin theory in actuarial sciences, dependence and stochastic ordering with applications to actuarial sciences.
