Lviv
Polytechnic National University is the oldest technical university in Eastern
Europe (it was founded in 1844) and one of the largest in Ukraine. The overall
numbers of students amounts to 20,000. They are enrolled in 76 subject fields.
At Lviv Polytechnic National University there are 12 institutes with 82 academic
departments and over 1,500 teaching staff, over 150 of whom have hold the degree
of Doctor of Science and over 1000 - the degree of Doctor of Philosophy.
Scientific research is pursued in 4 large research and design institutes and in
about 100 laboratories, with a staff of about 1,000 researchers.
The
University actively participates in external economic activities. Contracts have
been signed with a number of foreign companies for the export of the results of
scientific research. Contacts for scientific and technical cooperation have been
signed with universities in USA, Canada, Great Britain, Germany, France,
Austria, Poland, Slovakia, Bulgaria and other countries.
The
project will be carried out by the Department of Computer Engineering, which is
one of the largest Department at the University (academic staff: 49, including:
4 D.Sc, professors, 18 Ph.D.; about 1,000 students).
Over
the long time Department of Computer Engineering has been conducting research
activity in design of systems for geographically distributed long-term
explorations based on autonomous mobile research stations (intelligent
agents-explorers). Results of this research activity were implemented in systems
of autonomous distributed oceanic explorations based on autonomous research
stations (drifters) and systems of mobile regional ecologic monitoring based on
mobile ecologic monitoring stations. Department has also been successfully
cooperating with Institute of Marine Hydrophysics (Ukrainian National Academy of
Science) in the field of design of systems for autonomous distributed oceanic
explorations. In framework of this cooperation scheme staff of Department has
taken part in COSPAS/SARSAT (Search and Rescue Satellite Aided Tracking) project
(funded by USA, Canada, France, Russia and Ukraine) in part of developing
control systems for autonomous research stations. Research work at the
Department of Computer Engineering on distributed autonomous exploration systems
covered following directions: measurement (transducers, sensor systems, A/D
conversion), preliminary processing (specialized computer devices, system on a
chip, signal processing), communication (wireless communication, protective
coding, information security). Presently Department research has gained new
level of expertise covering problems of design of intelligent instrumentation
means for distributed explorations which are capable of self-organizing to
perform joint exploratory actions. Starting with the year 2000 Department
successfully performed set of research projects in the field of autonomous
distributed explorations for ecological monitoring based on robotic multiagent
systems in the framework of National Program of fundamental research "New
computer facilities and technologies for information society" supported by
Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine. Since 2000 research work on
distributed autonomous exploration systems continues in the Laboratory of
Multiagent Systems created at Department of Computer Engineering. Also staff of
Department has performed a lot of projects in computer systems hardware and
software creation for different branches.
