The Department appeared simultaneously with the CMC Faculty in 1970. It was founded and headed by Academician, laureate of the Lenin prize Svyatoslav S. Lavrov (1923 ? 2004) who was a pioneer in the practical astronautics research and computer science in our country. There is a small planet (?2354, Lavrov) discovered in 1978, that is named after him.

The educational process at the Department is conducted in accordance with its scientific research. It is based on the special seminars on current research directions. Fundamental scientific achievements of the team have become useful for practical tasks in programming (standardization of programming languages, testing of compilers, symbolic calculations) and also in technical tasks (computer-aided design), applied linguistics, information retrieval, web-analytics, cryptography.

The Department has a joint Laboratory of Computational Practice and Information Systems.

Main Scientific Directions:

The principal research directions at the Department are the following:

• formal languages and grammars, theory of translation, programming paradigms and technologies;
• computational linguistics and natural language technologies: text processing and text generation, controlled language, computer dictionaries and thesauruses, information retrieval, text mining;
• artificial intelligence (knowledge engineering, automatic reasoning);
• web-analytics, applied internet technologies and the development of web-resources (one of them ? a popular in Runet educational resource www.glossary.ru);
• symbolic calculations and computer algebra (some symbolic algorithms for mathematical tasks were included in the popular computer algebra system MAPLE).
