MSU Faculty of Computational Mathematics and Cybernetics (CMC) (Russian: Факультет вычислительной математики и кибернетики (ВМК)), founded in 1970 by Andrey Tikhonov, is a part of Moscow State University.
Education
[edit]CMC is a Russian research and training center in the fields of applied mathematics, computing and software development .[citation needed] Education at CMC combines theoretical studies, practical exercises, and research.
Main 12 Master's programs:
- Mathematical physics
- Mathematical modeling
- Computational diagnostics
- Numerical methods
- Theory of probability and mathematical statistics
- Operations research and systems analysis
- Optimization and optimal control
- Mathematical cybernetics
- Software for computers and computer systems
- Networks software
- System programming
- Decision making in Economics and Finance
History
[edit]A group of professors and scholars from Department of Physics and Department of Mechanics and Mathematics led by Andrey Tikhonov founded CMC in 1970. The three departments are still closely connected.
The faculty houses the 33,072-processor Lomonosov supercomputer in Moscow. The system was designed by T-Platforms, and used Xeon 2.93 GHz processors, Nvidia 2070 GPUs, and an Infiniband interconnect. Following companies work with CS MSU: Intel, Microsoft, Sun Microsystems, Borland, Software AG, Siemens, IBM/Lotus, Samsung, HP.
Following the school's support for the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, Intel and AMD, the largest chip manufacturers in the world, whose processors are used in the Moscow State University supercomputer, as well as NVIDIA, reacted by suspending deliveries of their processors to Russia.[1][2]
