• Theoretical bases and technology of construction of the automated intellectual systems of support making-decision are created for a management the country, departments, large industrial, pertaining to national economy associations, corporations and others on the basis of situation modeling (the "Situation Centres" type systems).

  On the basis of the got theoretical results the first in Ukraine the Situation Centre (SC) of Ukraine  Ministry of Defence  (MD) was created and introduced.

  Presently SC functions in three basic modes:

   1. At the everyday mode a round-the-clock the battle duty is carried out by staff of the duty changing, the monitoring condition of the potentially hazardous objects is carried out and daily hearing of morning reports to the General staff Chief of the Armed Forces (AF) of Ukraine is conducted.

   2. At the planned mode there is consideration of planned questions in relation to the strategic planning.

   3. At the extraordinary situation by the decision of the Defence Minister or the General staff Chief of the AF of Ukraine the increased mode of work is set, at which the operative round-the-clock group/groups of Ukraine MD and General staff Chief of AF of Ukraine begins to work in certain composition in SC.

    One of the models of SC MD of Ukraine "Prognostication of consequences of extraordinary situations on chemically hazardous objects" ("Khmara") was used for conducting the State ecological examination of the ecological condition of the accident area by the Geochemistry Institute of Ukraine NAS and EMM of Ukraine (Emergency Measures Ministry of Ukraine) on Ozhydiv-Krasne railway stage in the Lvov region.

   Model of the Situation Room was developed and put into operation for working off the systems of support of decision-making (SSDM) in the distributed environments; it is allowed to provide adequacy and promote efficiency of administrative decisions in extreme and nonpermanent situations on the different levels of state administration.

•     A few generations of the automated systems of informative support of law-making activity of different levels deputies ("Rada-1", "Rada-2", "Rada-3" etc.) were  developed and introduced in more than 10 law-making departments of Ukraine and abroad, including the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine and Verkhovna Rada of the Crimea and Uzbekistan and Tajikistan parliaments.

      Guidance of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine highly estimated the "Rada-3" system the use of which promotes quality of law-making process substantially, that was especially marked in the process of preparation and acceptance of Ukraine Constitution etc. The system was awarded by the State Prize of Ukraine.
