Research activities

The research work of the staff of the CDS Department and employees of GNDL-80 is conducted in the direction of the development and implementation of systems for the automated design of organizational and technical systems.

The CDS Department conducts research in the following areas:


The theoretical results of the research work are new mathematical models, methods, algorithms for the design and production of microelectronic devices, as well as the design and functioning of organizational and technical systems.

Practical results - software-methodological complexes and methods, CAD of microelectronic devices.

Presentation of scientific research

Scientific journal "Computer Design Systems. Theory and Practice"

Scientific journal of the National University "Lviv Polytechnic" "Computer Design Systems. Theory and Practice" is published once a year, starting in 2019. The magazine is the legal successor of the collection of scientific works «Visnyk of the National University "Lviv Polytechnic ». Series: "Computer systems of design. Theory and practice".

The scientific journal highlights the results of the theory and practice of modeling complex objects, processes and systems, as well as the development and use of software for automated design.
