From October 6 to 10, 2025, the 5th International Conference “Stability and Control Processes. In Memory of Professor V.I. Zubov” was held in Saint Petersburg. The conference was dedicated to contemporary issues in control theory, systems analysis, and cybernetics.

The event honors Vladimir Ivanovich Zubov — founder of the Faculty of Applied Mathematics and Control Processes at Saint Petersburg State University, corresponding member of the Russian Academy of Sciences, laureate of the State Prize, Honored Scientist of the Russian Federation, Doctor of Physical and Mathematical Sciences, and Professor who headed the Department of Control Theory from 1967 to 2000. His scientific legacy has had a profound impact on the development of the Russian school of control theory and systems analysis.

Valeriy Vyacheslavovich Zakharov, a researcher at the Laboratory of Information Technologies in System Analysis and Modeling of the Federal Research Center of the Russian Academy of Sciences (SPC FRC RAS), took part in the conference and presented a report titled “A System-Cybernetic Approach to Describing and Solving Scheduling Theory Problems.”

The research focuses on developing a new approach to solving scheduling theory problems based on the use of models, methods, and algorithms from the theory of control of complex dynamic systems. This approach provides a new perspective on scheduling tasks characterized by high dimensionality, nonstationarity, nonlinear constraints, and multi-criteria conditions — viewing them as control problems for dynamic systems operating in a perturbed external environment.

The proposed solutions aim to improve the efficiency of schedule generation under uncertainty and changing conditions, which is particularly relevant for modern automated and intelligent production systems.
