Victor Ivannikov

Victor Ivannikov (1940-2016) was a prominent scientist in the field of computer engineering and programming.

While at Institute of Precise Mechanics and Computer Engineering (IPMaCE) he became a leading member of the team responsible for creating the D-68 operating system for the BESM-6 computer. Working on advanced hardware systems Ivannikov gained extensive experience in system programming that enabled him to make notable contributions to the development of operating systems, including the creation of new ways to organize parallel processing and programming complexes.

Ivannikov also conducted numerous research projects and was responsible for important innovations in object-oriented programming, creating new cluster technology that was implemented during the creation of the AS-6 operating system and has been used in various computational complexes and supercomputers.

In 1994 he founded the Institute for System Programming of the Russian Academy of Sciences (ISP RAS) and was its first director.
