in the town of Grodno
(Western
Byelorussia).
After successful completion of the secondary school (Grodno)
in 1959
he has matriculated on the first
course of physical and mathematical faculty of Grodno
State University,
and in 1962
has been transferred to the Department of Mathematics of Tartu
State University
(Estonia).
In 1966
he successfully finished Tartu State University on the speciality of Mathematician.
In 1969
he started post-graduate studies of the Estonian Academy of Science on the
speciality "Probability
Theory and Mathematical Statistics",
and successfully finished in 1972
on two specialities "Theoretical
Cybernetics"
and "Technical
Cybernetics".
The doctoral degree in mathematics was assigned to him for monograph "Mathematical
Theory of
Homogeneous Structures and their
Appendices".
In
1972
- 1990
he had a respectable positions in a number of project-technological and research
organizations of Tallinn
(Estonia).
In May 1991
he has founded scientific company VASCO

and was its director; in December 1992
he became vice-president of the joint venture Salcombe
Eesti Ltd.
In 1999
he was appointed the President of the Tallinn
Research
Group
(TRG),
whose scientific findings received international recognition, first of all, in
the field of modern mathematical cybernetics - mathematical theory of Homogeneous
Structures
(Cellular
Automata).
Aladjev
V. Z.
is the author of more than 330
scientific and technical publications (including
63
monographs,
textbooks,
books
and
collections
of the articles),

Estonia, Russia, Byelorussia, the Ukraine, Lithuania, GDR, Germany, Hungary,
Chechoslovakia, Japan, USA, Great Britain
and Holland.
Since 1972
he is the reviewer and associate editor of the international mathematical
journal "Zentralblatt
fur Mathematik"
and
since 1980
- a member of IAMM
(The
International Association for
Mathematical Modelling,
USA).
He founded the Estonian
school of mathematical theory of Homogeneous
Structures
(Cellular
Automata)
which has received international recognition and studies the fundamentals of a
new section of modern mathematical cybernetics.
Since
October
1993
Aladjev
V. Z.
has
been elected as a member of the Working Group IFIP
(International
Federation for Information
Processing,
USA)
which deals with the mathematical theory of homogeneous structures and its
appendices. Aladjev
V. Z.
participates as a member of the organizing committee and/or an invitee lecturer
in many international scientific forums in mathematics and cybernetics. In
April
1994
Aladjev
V. Z.
has been elected as an academician
of the Russian
Academy of Cosmonautics
in the section of Fundamental
Researches;
in September
1994
he has been elected as an academician
of the Russian
Academy of Noosphere
in the section of Information
Science.
In September
1995
Aladjev V. Z.
has been
elected as an academician
of the Russian
Academy of Natural Sciences
in
the section of Noosphere
Knowledge and Technologies,
and in June
1998
- as a honorary
academician
of the Russian
Ecological Academy.
In
November
1997
Aladjev
V. Z.
has been elected
as the academician-secretary
of
the Baltic
Branch of the Russian Academy of
Noosphere
integrating scientists and specialists of three Baltic
countries
and Byelorussia,
who work in the field of a complex of scientific disciplines, which are included
in the doctrine about Noosphere
(sphere
of mind)
and areas, adjacent to it, including theoretical and applied questions of the
homogeneous structures problems. As a result of reorganization of the Russian
Academy of Noosphere
into the International
Academy of Noosphere
(Sustainable
Development)
Aladjev
V. Z.
has been
elected as its First vice-president in December
1998.
In December
1999
Aladjev
V. Z.
has been
elected as a foreign
member
of the Russian
Academy of
Natural Sciences
(RANS)
in the section of Information
Science
and Cybernetics.
Most considerable scientific results of Aladjev V. Z. are related to the mathematical theory of homogeneous structures (Cellular Automata) and their appendices. The sphere of his scientific interests includes mathematics, information science, cybernetics, computing sciences, mathematical and theoretical biology, physics, astronautics, cosmology, problems of universe, and also a series of other naturally-scientific fields of modern knowledge.
