YEREVAN, September 19. /ARKA/. CSIT-20055th international conference
devoted to computer sciences and information technologies was launched
in Yerevan. According to the Vice-President of the RA National
Academy of Sciences (NAS), Director of the Institute of problems of
informatics and automatization (IPIA) of the RA NAS Yuri Shukuryan,
the main goal of the conference is exchange of information in the
area of science and information technologies and establishment of
new contacts between specialists. Shukuryan added that from 1997,
when the first such a conference was held, Armenia did specific steps
forward in the area of information technologies, in particular, an
experimental high productive system was introduced. “After the first
conference we did a lot, and we learn from our colleagues, among whom
are very famous scientists”, he said. In particular, according to him,
representatives of the Scientific and Research Institute of Informatics
of Tuluza, Institute of High Productive Computing and Database of Saint
Petersburg, Institute of System Programming and Computing Center of
the Russian Academy of Sciences, Ukrainian Institute of Cybernetics,
Tehran University and of other scientific institutions participate
in the conference.
The conference is organized by the IPIA of the RA NAS in association
with IEEE, with the support of the International Scientific -Technical
Center, National Fund of Sciences and Advanced Technologies, Incubator
Enterprises Foundation, Arminco Company, Unicomp, Haylink. Over
35 specialists from 12 countries participate in the conference,
including the USA, Russia, Ukraine, Georgia, France, India and
Iran. 135 reports, including those by over 40 young scientists from
Armenia will be read at the conference. Theoretical researches are in
the areas traditionally developing in Armenia, and which make the basis
for the applied work: theory of algorithms, machines and mathematical
logic, discrete math and theory of combinations, artificial intellect,
recognition of samples and processing of images, theory of information
and coding. A special attention is paid to the development of a high
productive system for scientific calculations in Armenia, based on
“Armclaster” high productive computing system and developed by the
project of the International Scientific and Technical Center of IPIA
and its software development on the base of theoretical researches
and technology of parallel programming. A.H. -0–
