In 1960, the department’s scientific school was established. Until 2010, the main focus of its research was “High-performance computer systems and networks: theory, methods, and tools for hardware and software implementation”.
The department is known for its scientific contributions, reflected in 46 monographs, 162 textbooks and учебні manuals, 850 author’s certificates and patents, and, of course, in the training of highly qualified specialists through postgraduate and doctoral studies. The department’s scientific school is represented in Ukraine and in 18 countries worldwide by more than 300 Candidates of Technical Sciences (PhDs) and 18 Doctors of Technical Sciences.
Since 2010, the school has changed its research direction.
At present, a new research direction has been сформed: “Theory of network information technologies, methods and tools for hardware and software implementation of high-performance computer systems and networks oriented toward distributed data processing in cluster, GRID, and cloud environments.”
Fields of science: Information technologies; information and communication technologies in education; mathematical and software support of computers and systems; mathematical modeling and computational methods; artificial intelligence systems and tools; information security systems; computer-aided design systems; computer systems and components; electronics.
When forming the research direction of the Department of Computer Engineering, Article 3, “Priority areas for the development of science and technology until 2020,” of the Law of Ukraine adopted by the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine on September 9, 2010, “On Amendments to the Law of Ukraine ‘On Priority Areas for the Development of Science and Technology,’” was taken into account. According to this Law, the second of the six priority areas is: “Information and communication technologies.” The research direction was established on October 4, 2010, in accordance with the requirements of the Research Department of NTUU “Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute,” based on the scientific school’s direction in computer engineering and the research and technological activities of the laboratories as provided by their scientific supervisors.
