I graduated from
Tbilisi State University (TSU) with a degree in mathematics and mechanics, in
1958. Then, I continued postgraduate studies at the Academy of Sciences of USSR
with the specialty of software engineering. In 1961 terminated the postgraduate
studies and began to work at TSU at the chair of Numeric Analysis and Computer
Technique as an assistant. In 1966 was awarded Ph.D
degree in mathematics. Since 1968, I have been working at I.Vekua
Scientific Institute of Applied Mathematics (VIAM). Firstly, I worked as an
assistant of the head of the Programming Department and since 1973 as a head of
the Systemic Programming Department. In 1978, I received the qualification of
the senior scientific worker at software development. In 1983-87, I was in
mission at Annaba State University (Algeria). There I
worked at the faculty of Computer Science as a professor (maitre de
conference). I have given lectures on the art of programming using WAX
computers and on the theory of formal grammar and compilation. There, by my
supervision were fulfilled 10 master's works and two Ph.D
dissertations. Three times, in 1991,1995 and 2003, I
was in scientific mission at Saarbrucken University
(Germany).
Pedagogical and scientific
activities
Since 1961, I have been
giving lectures on the theory and practice of programming at TSU. Now, I give
lectures at the faculty of Computer Science. I have been giving lectures using
many programming languages, such as ALGOL-61, ALGOL-68, FORTRAN, PASCAL,
DELPHI, BASIC, PL/1, TURBOPROLOG, VPROLOG, C, C++, PERL, OZ and so on. I also
have used modular and object oriented programming, graphical interfaces,
database theory and practice with corresponding languages - ACCESS, FOXPRO, DBS
and SQL. I have been using in practical activity the following operational
systems: DOS, WINDOWS, NT4 and UNIX (in particular, LINUX). I have been giving
lectures on Internet application and Internet programming.
Now, I give lectures at the
faculty of Computer Science on OZ programming. Oz language is a modern
language, which is foreseen for logical, distributed, concurrent, parallel,
partitioned, window and constraint programming, using Internet possibilities. This
year, my manual has been published on the syntactical description of OZ
language. I give lectures on the formal grammars and compilation for postgraduate
students at the faculty.
By my supervision and
participation many projects have been realized. Among them: Experimental
machine translation from the Georgian in to Russian (1966); Automated system of
the financial and management activity of TSU (using PL/1 language and a
database managing own system), 1975; PL/1 interactive translator for БЭСМ-6 computer (1978); Automated system
for construction of teaching courses and their application (the system is
composed on TURBOPROLOG ) in 1990; Computerized publishing house of TSU (1996};
Constructed and published on Internet the database on activity of TSU (Grant of
EURASIA Foundation, 1997); Constructed and published on Internet electronic
dictionaries ( English-Georgian - 24000 entries Grant of Soros
Fondation, German-Georgian, 23000 entries,
multilingual dictionary of mathematical terms, 2400 entries, German-Georgian
tourist guide ), 1990-2000; System of programs of morphological and syntactical
analysis of Georgian texts, 1990-2004.
I have 39 published
scientific works on theoretical and practical problems of programming,
have been participated in many international scientific symposiums and
meetings. By my supervision, seven postgraduate students have done Ph.D dissertations on computer science.
