Abstract
This chapter gives a general description of the life and scientific career of V. S. Mikhalevich and his scientific and public activities. The development of one of the first (in the USSR) supercomputer systems under the direction of V. M. Glushkov is considered on which, already under the direction of V. S. Mikhalevich, complicated problems were solved by scientists of the Institute of Cybernetics. It was then (in the 1980s) that this system underlay the beginning of obtaining the experience in the parallelization of computational processes, and pioneer works were performed on the creation of software for supercomputer systems capable of realizing parallel processes. These works undoubtedly exerted a positive influence on the development of the well-known supercomputers of the SCIT family and also supercomputers of the INPARCOM family developed by scientists of the Institute of Cybernetics together with specialists of the State Scientific-Production Enterprise (SSPE) “Elektronmash.”
