Jim Dai received his PhD in mathematics from Stanford University. He is currently Presidential Chair Professor in the Institute for Data and Decision Analytics at The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Shenzhen. He is also the Leon C. Welch Professor of Engineering in the School of Operations Research and Information Engineering at Cornell University. He was honored by the Applied Probability Society of INFORMS with its Erlang Prize (1998) and with two Best Publication Awards (1997 and 2017). In 2018 he received The Achievement Award from ACM SIGMETRICS. Professor Dai served as Editor-In-Chief of Mathematics of Operations Research from 2012 to 2018.

J. Michael Harrison earned degrees in industrial engineering and operations research before joining the faculty of Stanford University's Graduate School of Business, where he served for 43 years. His research concerns stochastic models in business and engineering, including mathematical finance and processing network theory. His previous books include Brownian Models of Performance and Control (2013). Professor Harrison has been honored by INFORMS with its Expository Writing Award (1998), the Lanchester Prize for best research publication (2001), and the John von Neumann Theory Prize (2004); he was elected to the U.S. National Academy of Engineering in 2008.
