Background
Boualem Rabta earned his doctorate degree in Applied Mathematics from the University of Bejaia, Algeria. Prior to joining WU, he worked as a researcher at the University of Neuchâtel (Switzerland), Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam (The Netherlands) and Alpen-Adria Universität Klagenfurt (Austria). His main research interests include the study of the stability of Markov chains and related models, modeling and analysis of stochastic production and inventory systems as well as circular economy and humanitarian operations.
