(1997 update) From <strong>the</strong> his<strong>to</strong>ry <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Institute...<br />

The Institute <strong>of</strong> Au<strong>to</strong>mation and Electrometry was founded in 1957<br />

among <strong>the</strong> very first institutions <strong>of</strong> Siberian Branch <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Academy</strong><br />

<strong>of</strong> <strong>Sciences</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> USSR (now <strong>Russian</strong> <strong>Academy</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Sciences</strong>, RAS).<br />

Konstantin B. Karandeev, Corresponding member <strong>of</strong> <strong>Academy</strong> <strong>of</strong><br />

<strong>Sciences</strong> <strong>of</strong> USSR, was <strong>the</strong> first direc<strong>to</strong>r <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Institute.<br />

During <strong>the</strong> first years, <strong>the</strong> Institutes developed and constructed devices<br />

and systems for au<strong>to</strong>matic measurement, intended for data acquisition<br />

and processing. Fur<strong>the</strong>r on <strong>the</strong> Institute concentrated its efforts on<br />

<strong>the</strong> tasks for au<strong>to</strong>matization based on <strong>the</strong> new physical methods and<br />

means--laser and op<strong>to</strong>electronics. During <strong>the</strong> second and third<br />

decades <strong>the</strong> Institute imbedded several dozen <strong>of</strong> big developed<br />

products in industry and in scientific experiments. This has been<br />

done in collaboration with Special Design Bureau <strong>of</strong> Scientific<br />

Instrument-Making (now Technological Design Institute <strong>of</strong> Scientific<br />

Instrument-Making).<br />

The last years development field includes laser and non-linear optics,<br />

new information technologies, based on <strong>the</strong> new physical principles,<br />

and problem-oriented computer systems.<br />

Direc<strong>to</strong>rs <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Institute:<br />

1957-1967 Konstantin B. Karandeev, Corr.-memb <strong>of</strong> AS USSR<br />
