Abstract

In recollecting the first decade and a half of my professional life in Moscow, I find myself unable to single out any especially vivid impressions; it was just work, work, and yet more work! The Computing Centre (CC) of the Academy of Sciences, where I was offered the position of department chair in parallel with my job at the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology, was one of those rare academic scientific institutions prepared to actively collaborate with research and design organizations involved in the production of new aviation and rocket technology. There was no need to go looking for problems to work on: they fell on our heads out of the sky, moreover in significantly greater numbers than we could cope with. They were precisely the sort of problems to my taste, combining as they did physics and engineering interpretations with appealing but difficult mathematics.
