This institute is an important center for research and development 
of electronic computers. Research has been devoted mainly to mathematical 
physics, history of mathematics, computer mathematics, and theoretical 
mechanics. One of the Institute's laboratories played a major role in the 
development of the KIYEV universal electronic digital computer and the first 
Soviet automatic computer, the MESM. A larger model, the BESM, a general- 
purpose digital computer, was also designed in this laboratory. The staff 
also developed a highly specialized instrument, the EGDA integrator.
