Historical reference

Department began training specialists on computer systems of design in 1972, being first in Ukraine and one of the first in former USSR. Everything began from 'Industrial electronics' specialty, exactly, from 'Electronic devices for control systems' specilaty. The complicated way of establishing electronic techniques as branch which was first manufacturing utilities and electronic devices, to branch of development and manufacturing superlarge integrated circuits and computers based on them, was performed.

Such main stages can be stressed on this way.

CADS idea conception (1964-1970)

Department was headed by prof., D.E. Vitaliy Petrovych Sigorsky, and it was training specialists in 'Electronic devices for control systems' specialization, specialty 0612 ('Industrial electronics') composed of one academic group (25 students). There was begun, and has been carried out actively, research of methods and algorithms for linear electronic circuits analysis, graphic information converters for computers, scale-time signal converters, etc. At this time Department's collective has been forming, and its traditions have been created. It must be mentioned that this period meant renaissance of 'Technical electronics' specialization that was created in 1956 by associate professor, Doctor of technical sciences S.V. Svechnikov on 'electronic devices' Department (who is now academician of NAS of Ukraine, Director of Institute of semiconductors). In 1962 (after S.V. Svechnikov 's move to NAS of Ukraine) 'Industrial electronics' Department (head, associate professor, Candidate of Technical Sciences S.V. Rudenko) was created, where the basic backbone of specialization (associate professor A.I. Petrenko, associate professor Y.M. Kalnibolotsky, senior lecturer E.M. Vakulenko, assistant S.V. Denbnovetsky, assistant V.G. Abakumov, assistant A.A. Budniak) continued working in the field of signal electronics and control systems. When prof. V.P. Sigorsky came to 'KPI', restored specialization on the new Department in relatively short time achieved noticeable success after all directions of its activity: educational-methodical, scientific and organization-educational. At these years V.V. Bobin, O.O. Kapshuk, V.Y. Zinchenko, V.G. Artuhov, V.V. Romanov, V.G. Fesechnko, Y.A. Zaborovsky came as graduate students to the Department, and then they became its collaborators.

The most important events of this period include:

• organization of permanently working seminar 'Methods of analysis and synthesis of electronic circuits' at Republican House of scientific-technical information;
• participation in all-USSR program of Academy of Sciences of USSR on BASONI experimental research automatization;
• opening the task laboratory on converting graphic information for computer;
• writing and publication of tutorials and monographies: “Теория электрических схем” (Сигорский В.П., Петренко А.И., “Техника”, Киев, 1967 (перше видання) і “Вища школа”, Киев, 1970 (друге видання)); “Алгоритмы анализа электронных схем” (Сигорский В.П., Петренко А.И., “Техника”, Киев, 1971); “Матрицы и графы в электронике” (Сигорский В.П., “Техника”, Киев, 1968); “Автоматический ввод графиков в ЭВМ” (Петренко А.И., “Советское радио”, Москва, 1968); “Современные методы анализа электронных схем” (Петренко А.И., “Техника”, София, 1970) etc.;
• defence of two Doctoral (A.I. Petrenko - 1968, Y.M. Kalnibolotsky - 1970) and 9 Candidate's dissertations.

Beginning of CADS idea introducing (1971-1976)

Department headed by its new head, prof., D.E. A.I. Petrenko moved to training specialists on new specialty 0648 'Building and manufacturing of computer devices'. For the first time in practice, “Mathematic modelling of electronic circuits on computers' course was introduced into curriculum. Amount of students increased to 2 academic groups (50 students). In connection with this, Department's educational work is rebuilt. Courses which have been read before were almost completely conducted for unification to the general faculty Department of general engineering training which was created on FET ('Theoretical electronics' Department, Head of Department prof., D.E. V. P. Sigorsky.); educational laboratories were re-equipped completely - 6 mini computers of СМ-4, СМ-3, СМ-1 types are used; cycle of important research works on automatization of non-linear systems and circuit design, automatization of project constructor works in electronics is performed.

New specialty required the new specialists: during this time, O.P. Tsoorin, V.F. Leskin, Y.S. Synekop and the others began to work on Department. In general, the collective which comprised 120, was the winner and prize winner of professional competition among the Departments of Faculty and Institute during 1971-1975. In academic year of 1971-72, on general Institute review, Department occupied the first place, in 1972-73, 1973-74 and 1974-75 Department have been occupying first place among the Departments of Faculty and Institute on scientific achievements review. From 46 factors introduced in 1975 Department had the highest values after 16factors (more than the other Departments had), and none of values was lower than the average level.

The most important events of this period include:

CADS specialty official recognition (1976-1981)

During this period, the new specialization 06.48.02. on training CADS developers, was officilay introduced, which required wide use of computers at all stages of design, building Computer Techniques and CADS technical means with the use of micro processor LSI as element base. Considerable modernization of specialty curriculum was needed, 8 new courses were introduced, they were built on original materials of scientific research in the field of CADS, conducted by Department and its task laboratory. material-technical base was renewed - 10 computers, including one large “EC-1033” computer for general University CADS laboratory, headed by associate professor A.A. Budnyak. For performing laboratory practice, program complex were used which were created mostly by Department collaborators.

Important cycle of CADS research was carried out, according to decrees of ДКНТ, national plan of Ussr and Inter-governmental Commission of Counsil for Economical Aid countries on computational techniques was carried out. For example, educational CADS Computer Techniques was created according to the task 0.27.05.06.0 of ДКНТ Coordinated plan of developing national economy of USSR. Lecture courses on micro processor techniques were introduced (for this, 3 foreign books were translated and published). Cycle of researching the means of jacquard weaving automatization was carried out. Collective of Department (which got the name АP Computer Techniques— Computer Techniques design automatization), as earlier, kept leadership in professional contest among Departments of faculty and Institute. For achievements in educational-manufacturing activity, Department was given the title 'perfect', and it was rewarded by Jubilee document in 1980. Perfect department also had perfect student groups: the group DА-71 was given the title 'perfect', and the group DА-72 was called the best one among the IV year groups of in the Institute. G.D. Kiselev, V.M. Podladchikov, А.М. Smirnov, S.М Molyavko came to work on Department.

The most important events of this period include:

• writing and publication of initial monograph series on CADS, among which are

Wide implementation of CADS (1981-1986)

Specialists' training after the new techniques, which was performed by Department, required from its collective serious efforts on developing scientific-methodical literature on specialty and on creating the corresponding material-technical basis, and this ended in 1983 by introducing officially in the USSR and opening in 1985 in 'KPI' the new specialty, 0656, 'Computer aided design systems'. Until that time15 basic scientific CADS disciplines (and their modifications for special faculty, courses and faculty of professional development) were developed in Department; scientific-research CADS Computer Techniques, which enabled performing transparent design of complex electronic devices, which also included microprocessor systems programming, was put into use; 6 display classes with 60 working places were created; Department branch on PA “Кristal” was actively working. Started due to money received from scientific research introduction, computational base provided 250-300 hours of contact with computers for students of specialty during one academic year, which was record not only for higher educational establishments in Ukraine (MinVUZ's norm for that time was15-20 hours for the whole period of studying in higher educational establishment!). Department started the wide system of engineer specialists' qualification improvement, conducted 2 all-USSR conferences on methods of micro processor systems design and CADS and one all-USSR conference 'Graphic dialogue systems'. Up to 1500 listeners from pioneering organizations and industrial enterprises. Department collaborators (as aid to Kiev enterprises) have read the considerable amount of lectures cycles on CADS on PA “Mayak”, Petrovsky PA, Korolyov PA, on CADS Department of National Technical university, PA “Promtyazhavtomatyka”, etc.

• Fundamental and applied work on creating technical and program means of electronic modelling and computer aided design, useful for state economy;
• development of micro processor systems of wide and specific purpose and means for their programming automatization;
• automatization of labour-intensive processes of enterprise technological preparation;
• creating means for customized and matrix LSI design, methods and means of digital signal processing, design of specialized graphic systems were continued on Department.

During this period, CADS collective is the leader in contest between the Departments of Faculty and University. Every year Department and its task laboratory were confirming the title 'perfect' which was given to them. Department works rhythmically, collective has normal social psychological microclimate and creative atmosphere. Student collective is also the reason to be glad. For instance, for XI five-year plan students published 56 articles and received 20 awards for contest scientific works. Department graduates get the high-quality fundamental training and improve the applied training on the pioneering Kiev enterprises, such as PA “Кristal”, Electronmash, Korolyov ПO, Kiev Radio Engineering plant, 'Arsenal' plant, etc. In its turn, Department shows on exhibition 41 exhibit, and gets 9 awards.

The most important events of this period include:

continuing publications on CADS: “Основы построения САПР” (Петренко А.И., ”Техника”, Киев, 1982); “Топологические методы трассровки печатных плат” (Петренко А.И., Тетельбаум А.Я., Забалуєв Н.Н., “Радио и связь”, Москва 1983); “Автоматизация проектирования больших интегральных схем”“Основы построения САПР” (учебник, Петренко А.И., Семенков О.И., “Вища школа”, Киев, 1984 - first edition, 1985 - second edition); “Основы на системите на автоматизирано проектиране САПР” (Петренко А., Семенков О., “Техника”, София, 1986);

5. Move to multistage model of engineer education (1986-1992)

So called 'restructuring', begun in USSR, led to country disintegration, and it had influence on specialists' training system. 'Law on Education' was adopted in the independent Ukraine, which made provision for move to the multistage model of engineering training. To provide this, Department took active part in forming curriculum for Bachelor training у after modified specialty 560.200 “Computer information technologies (CADS)”, preparing 12 basic and 10 elective courses, implementing the new specialization 560.240 'Computer aided design and control of social economical objects and CADS systems in industry and business'. For the period mentioned, change of computer devices on Department and in its display classes was made. In conditions when supply from executed economic calculation subjects were first reduced and then disappeared, it was important to look for alternative ways of receiving the computational techniques. For this period, Department received: from IBM Company, for scientific-research work on high school tasks (1989-1990, 4 computers), from Bulgarian 'Mekhatronika' enterprise according to agreement on collaboration (1989-90, 7 computers), from DEC (Digital Equipment Corporation) Company on conducting common scientific-research work (3 computers, 10 working stations and 8 remote terminals), etc. At Department expense, 8 national and 9 Polish computers were purchased.

In conditions of economic crisis of national electronic industry, channels of funding for economic subject works stopped working, and Department made the additional efforts to win three contest national budget works on the line of Ukrainian State Committee on science and technologies, and also Ministry of Science of Ukraine. In spite of shortening its amount, Department has been holding scientific seminars and conferences every year (in Kiev, Slavsky, Verhovyny, Tschernivtsi), in the work of which took part more than 1000 engineers and scientists, organizations of Ukraine and of the other countries the near abroad. Department also took active part in conducting after the line of Academy of Engineering Sciences of Ukraine the international conference 'State of industry in Ukraine and ways of its renovation' in June 1992. To replace the international connections after РЕВ line, collaboration with Michigan State University, with International Society for Engineering Education (IGIP), with COMNET European Association for Universities and Industry was established. For instance, in 1991-92 educational years, economic disciplines of specialty have been read in English by specialists from the USA.

The most important events of this period include:

- publishing the line of tutorials, including: “Схематическое моделирование в машиностроении” (A.I. Petrenko, V.V. Ladogubets, V.V.
