YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 19, NOYAN TAPAN. The information technologies
sphere of Armenia has considerable potential for development. Fadei
Sargsian, President of the RA National Academy of Sciences (NAS),

in recent years achieved a remarkable success in the spheres of
information technologies and computer science – a high-efficiency
system based on the Armcluster computing system in order to make
scientific calculations has been created. Issues related to it will
be discussed by the conference participants at a working seminar.

According to Yuri Shukurian, Director of the RA NAS Institute of
Informatics and Automatization Problems, the conference enables not
only to exchange opinions but also to present the work carried out in
the indicated sphere in Armenia. According to him, the conference has
aroused great interest among the participants – good cooperation has
already been established with French scientists.

In the opinion of Artak Sahradian, RA Deputy Minister of Education
and Science, the conference represents yet another step in the
direction of developing the sphere of international technologies (IT)
and setting up scientific institutions.

Science and Advanced Technologies, the Enterprises Incubator Fund, as
well as the companies Arminco, Unicomp and Anelik. Experts from
