ecoming Deputy Director of the center in 1980. He joined the Presidium of the
Siberian Department in 1980. In 1964, he taught at the University of Novosibirsk,
becoming a professor in 1970. Since 1980, he has been on the Presidium of the
Siberian Department. He Developed principles for geological data gathering from
vibration sounding of the earth's interior. His major work has been in seismology.
He has headed the Scientific Society for the Mechanical Mathematical Sciences in
Energetics, the Coordination of the Soviet Scientific Committee on the Earth’s
Vibration Processes, the Soviet Committee for Methods of Distance Finding, the
Committee for Computing Technology, and the regional section of Siberia and the
Far Eastern Scientific Service for Modeling Complex Mathematical Problems. Since
1976, he has been a member of the American Mathematical Society, and since 1981
a member of the American Photogrammetry Association, and since 1983 he has
been a specialist (consultant) on sources of seismic control. In 1982, he received a
State Prize and is the holder of a number of other medals recognizing his
achievements. (Sib. Unpub. MSS., 1989) (GSE 30, p. 9.)
The Complex Institute produces studies in algebra, mathematical analysis, applied mathematics,
numerical methods for solving problems of mechanics of continuous
media, and information systems for local Omsk industrial enterprises. The
Compound Institute maintains a laboratory and a Department in Omsk and Barnaul.
Conducts research on applied mathematics, long-range weather forecasting,
formulation of mathematical models, and development of computational methods.
The institute maintains a laboratory in Barnaul that deals with the creation of
automated systems for the control of industrial enterprises and their adaptation to
local enterprises in the Altai territory. The center has established a Complex
Department of the Computing Center in Omsk on the site of the Siberian
Department's laboratories of the Mathematics Institute, the Hydrodynamics
Institute, and the Computing Center--all of which have been operating as
laboratories in Omsk since 1978.
