Institute research is oriented to the process control informatization and automation fields on all levels of production control, i.e . technological, workshops and managerial in consideration of new trends in the mentioned fields (development of intelligent control methods, new software support, new trends in the information storing, obtaining and using, multimedia and graphic systems, process visualization field, etc.).
With the orientation on production process we reach near co - operation with other MTF institutes. Actually we increase part of applied research at the expense of basic research. This depends on the increasing interest of companies to solve their real problems.
The main fields of research: information and database systems, software engineering, control and regulation systems of technological and production processes, including the questions of control quality, optimality, sensibility and robustness of control systems, as well as control system reliability, modeling and simulation, graphic and multimedia systems, intelligent control systems (genetic algorithms, neuronal networks, fuzzy controllers, expert systems, systems to support decision, ...). The scope of the mathematical part of the institute covers differential equations, real functions, fractals and chaos, graph theory, teachings rationalization methods, E- learning.
Institute AIM provides math, information and automation support.
Except scientist- research projects the institute focuses also on education projects, which are of interest from several views as e.g . research applications, rapprochement contacts, material and financial contributions.
