DESCRIPTION:Prof. Scott Armstrong\nBio: Prof. Armstrong is an author\, for
 ecasting and marketing expert\, and a professor of Marketing at the Wharto
 n School of the University of Pennsylvania.\nHe received his B.A. in appli
 ed science (1959) and his B.S. in industrial engineering (1960) from Lehig
 h University. In 1965\, he received his M.S. in industrial administration 
 from Carnegie-Mellon University. He received his Ph.D. in management from 
 the MIT Sloan School of Management in 1968.\nHe has taught in Thailand\, S
 witzerland\, Sweden\, New Zealand\, Australia\, South Africa\, Argentina\,
  Japan\, and other countries.\nHe is also the co-founder of the site adver
 tisingprinciples.com\, which in 2004\, won the MERLOT award for best busin
 ess education site.\nWe will discuss qualitative and quantitative aspects 
 of the study of homogenization of Hamilton-Jacobi equations in random envi
 ronments. From the probability point of view\, a special case of the resul
 ts correspond to large deviation principles for diffusions in random envir
 onments.
