Anatoly Kitov and Victor Glushkov: Pioneers of Russian Digital Economy and Informatics

Abstract: Recent work in the history of computing published in English might lead scholars to believe that there was little worthwhile research in computers during the cold war in the USSR. This article is devoted to the history of the development of the digital economy and automated information systems for managing the national economy in the Soviet Union. This history shows that the Red Book and OGAS projects were not failures given their impact on the development of the digital economy in Russia. Particular attention… Show more

“…In 1959, Anatoly Kitov proposed to the Central Committee of the CPSU a detailed plan for the reorganization of the management of the Soviet armed forces and the Soviet economy on the basis of a network of computing centers. [7] Kitov's proposal, as well as the 1962 OGAS Economic Management Network project were rejected. [8] In 1960, the airline booking system owned by Sabre Corporation (Sabre Global Distribution System) began to work online by connecting two mainframe computers.…”

“…Em propostas oferecidas entre 1958 e 1959, Kitov focou suas análises na necessidade da criação de centros e redes de computadores nos quais, a partir da resolução de cálculos matemáticos e da produção de métodos de administração automatizados, haveria uma organização mais eficiente e precisa dos processos econômicos na URSS. Apesar de incialmente aceitas pela cúpula do partido, algumas críticas foram mal recebidas pelo Ministério da Defesa que, ressentido com o conteúdo das propostas, abriu um processo contra Kitov em 1961, no qual foi decidido o seu desligamento do Exército e do Partido Comunista (Kitova, Kitov, 2019).…”

“…Apresentadas inicialmente como Rede Estatal Unificada de Centros de Computadores (EGSVT, do nome em russo), posteriormente renomeadas Sistema Estatal de Gerenciamento Automatizado (Ogas), as informações produzidas nesses centros seriam trocadas via telefone ou por um rudimentar sistema digital que se assemelhava a uma espécie de correio eletrônico. O objetivo principal, segundo Glushkov, era que os dados administrativos e econômicos tivessem seu gerenciamento em papel substituído por meios digitais, ou seja, por computadores e seus softwares, sendo registrados e transferidos via cartão perfurado ou fitas magnéticas (Kitova, Kitov, 2019).…”
