Periodicals have published many studies on this probl^m~ and by now there hAS developed a real need to analyze end generalize the accumulated materiel. This problem has be:en solved by the authors of the book being reviewed~ who have mRde a great personal contribution to the formation and - evolution of forest radioecology. Research conducted with the participation of these authors was used as the basis for the book. Furthermore, a great deal of literature is analyzed and the leading role of Soviet scientists in sol~ring the " _ problems is reflected. - The book devotes much attention to a justification of the practical and scientific - significance of forest radioecology as an ind~:pendent scientific trend; the - specifications of interaction between precipitated radioactive contaminants and ~ forest l~ndscapes are given. Particular attention is called *.o the exceedingly high retentivity of the arboreal floor for radioactive preci~itation. Specific deta - are given in tfie book to describe the rate of purific~tion of plant and tree tops from retained radiunuclides and tr~nslation of the latter to tne surface af the forest floor and then to the soil. These data form the basis for evaluating ~ irradiation doses to which many orgac+isms are Qxposed within the for~st biogeocenosis. One c~apter in the book is devote~ to a discussion of quantitative aspects of the ~ distribution and migration of man-made radionuclid~s in forest soils. Forms of discovery of long-lived fission products are examined: Sr90~ Cs137, and others; and the transformation of these forms in time due to char.ge in their biological accessibility for the root systems of vegetation. The role of forest soil as an avcumulutor of r~dioactive substances rPaching the ~urface of the soil from t!:. tops of vegetation and from the atmospl~ere is noted. Par*.icular attent?.on is ' focused on the important role in biogeochemical migration of radionuclides of - the corresponding natural ehemical macroanalogs--alkali metals for Cs13? and alkaline-earth for Sr90. This situation is illustrated by a wealth of factual meterial describing the distribution of mobile forms in the most common soil types of the USSR of such natural elements as Na, K, Pb, Ca, Mg~ and Sr. - Results of experiments are cited on the ei'fect on the speed of vertical migration - of Sr90 leached from the soil by water and by solutions of compounds of its ` _ ~ FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY APPROVED FOR RELEASE: 2007/02/08: CIA-RDP82-00850R000100040021-3 APPROVED FOR RELEASE: 2007/02/08: CIA-RDP82-00850R000100040021-3 _ FOR OFFICIAL U5E ONLY " ehemic~l ~na~log, calcium~ The datc~ in this chnpter are of interest not only to radioecologists, but also to speciAlists in forest man~gement. ~ A large section is dedicated to a description of the p~zttern of transition of - major fisslon products and their chemical analogs into forest vegetation from the ' soil. The uuthors justifiably ~mphasize that it is, in fact, the soil pathway of ac~ess which defines the content of a radionuclide such as Sr90 in timber. Based - on their own experimentul data~ the authors discuss in detail the relative migrational ability of man-made radionuclides nnd the corresponding natural analogs~ expressed as so-called magnitud~s of observable ratios of related element pairs. The kinetics of formation of a quasi-equilibrium state in the distribution of radionuclides and element analo~s in the biomass of forest - vegetation is examined for the element pair Sr /Ca. Detailed discussion is - g~ven to causes of altered content of Sr90 in forest vegetation in time following single introduction of a radionuclide under the forest cover. The factual data cited make a substnntial contribution to the biogeochemistry of fission products and natural nikali metal and alkaline-earth elements. In the concluding chapter of the monograph, the distinetive features of distribution in forests of ~rtificial radionuclides are considered in their zonal ~ ~spect. The initial factual data are presented as the results of experimental reseerch and encompasses the basic forest regions of the USSR. A comparative evuluation of the content of fission products in the biomass of woody vegetation _ $nd other components of the forest cenosis revealed significant differences in the concentrations as a funetion of the specimen sampling site, biological aspects of the test objects, and the physical and chemical properties of the - radionuclides. These materiels permitted the authors to make several important = generalizati~ns and to spell out the leading factors responsible for the - distribution of radionuclides throi:gh components of the cenosis and its time chang~s; quantitative parameters were obtained to describe the retentivity of the foresi floor for individual radionuclides. It should be noted, however, that the numerical data cited in the book concerning the distribution of radionuclides through forest components varies greatly according to the research region. UnfortunateIy, the authors did not give this a convincing explanation. _ ~ The tbtality of experimental data on the d~stribution and migration of Sr90 in the forest served as tiie basis for construction of a mathematical model of - mi~ration ~f this radionuclide and a definition of the coefficients of transfer of - Sr between various components of the forest cenosis. A good correspondence - was found between the proposed model and factual data~ providing grounds to , use it to predict the distribution of Sr90 in the forest in the remote future. The principles of mathematical modelling set forth in the monograph may be used to = construct a model of migration in forests not only of radioactive elements~ but - also of naturel stable ones~ and for that matter, any contaminants entering the forest cenosis due to the discharge of industrial wastes into the environment. --a ~ --1 2 - FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY APPROVED FOR RELEASE: 2007/02/08: CIA-RDP82-00850R000100040021-3 APPROVED FOR RELEASE: 2007/02/08: CIA-RDP82-00850R000100040021-3 ~ N'OR ()CFICTAL lI5E ONLY 'fhc rnuterii~l5 presented in the book, as u wl~ole, permitted the authors to formulate important generalizations which show the specificutions of dIstribution ~nd mi~rntion of radionuclides in forest biogeocenoses. It was found thut the overhe~d portion of the forest floor, especially in coniferous forests, is characterized by a much greater ability to retain radioactive contaminants wtiich h~ve precipitated from the atmos~here than herbaceous plant com- munities. A major portion of the radionuclides retained in the veget~tion tops ~ remuins there for quite a long time: this can cause a rise in the irradiAtion dose _ of the assimilating and reproductive orgAns. The authors formu~ated a thesis on - the exceedingly important sanitation and hygiene role of the forest which is _ m~nifested in u reduction in intensity of wind and water mi~ration of r~dionuclides beyond the boundaries of a contaminated territory after translution of their bulk under the cover of the timber floor. The vital nature of this monograph goes beyond the framework of purely radioecologict~l problems. The information presented in it can be useful for predicting the consequences of forest pollution by other toxic substances of non- radionetive nature, to evulu~te the sanitation and hygiene role of the forests _ undcr conditions of environmental pollution by industrial wastes. The book may offer certain interest for radioecologists, forest management _ specialists, hygiene specialists and a wide range of other experts engaged in the elaboration of the problem of protecting the environment frotn man-made pollutants.

Modern engineering psychological reaearch ie devoted to the problem of optimizing the man- = operator,a interaction witih complex information syetems which not only include the diaplay equipment but also the methode, ~ alg~rithms and facilities for preparing operational information, including computer programs and Cerminals. At Che same time, it ia necessary to recognize that~ with the exception of thoae rare cases where peyc:ho~.ogists direcCly .participate in the planning of complex information aystems, - the ma~oriCy of the research in engineering psychology is - lagging behind the rate of development and dissemination of ' new control equipment and syetems. The enormous acale of the acientific, Cechnological and engineering developmental ~ work in the field of automatpd control aystems, the expansion = of the operatore' functions and the reduction in the time for making responsible deciaions have brought about the requirement _ ~ for an in-depth psychological basis for this developmental work. The ever increas~ng complexity of controlling theae systema ; requires an optimal organization of interaction between oper- ators--operatora who are ~ointly accomplishing th~ control tasks-- _ by means of the collective formation of an adequat;e psycholog- ical model of the actual system. The psychologica~l aspects of the problem of an optimal organization of intex~action between different specialista who are ~ointly creating a multi-faceted - model of a somewhat� complex reality are not only of current - interest for making control syatems more efficient buC also for solving complex acientific problems (for example, on environmental protection), creating large--scale projecta and in many other cases where the solution of a problem is con- nected w~ith the synthesis of large amounts of diverse infor- mntion within limited periods of time. A reduction in the efficiency of control syatema.and work of scientific and de- sign groups frequently occurs due to a loss of information when it is transmitted from one echelon to another. .When solving an operational pr~blem which has arisen--in reference to control systems--the goal of engineering psychological planning consists of the optimal combination ~ and utiliz~ation of all its a priori experience which is recorded. in the instructions, machine programG and the structure of the information.display systems and also of the potential pro- - feasional and creative abilities of the collective and of each ~ operator based on the selection and coordination of adequate _ � professional (detailed) and universal (integrat~d) languages and - interactive equipmenr. - 6 FOR OFFICII~L USE ONLY APPROVED FOR RELEASE: 2007/02/08: CIA-RDP82-00850R000100040021-3 APPROVED FOR RELEASE: 2007/02/08: CIA-RDP82-00850R000100040021-3 FOR OFFICIAL U5C ONLY - ~ The selection of the interactive structure and the technicaY ~ equipment for the operatora' work must be di.rected at optimizing - the importnnce o� psycho:logical factors of work complexity when the mo~t responsible functiona are being accompllshed.

On numerous occas~ aiona, B� F. Lomov hus emphasized the importance of developing and - employing an anChropocentric methodology for engineering psychologtcal planning of a11 "man-machine" syatems, Based on the methods for conetructing them~ systems of hybr~d intelligence are the exact oppoaite of systems of artificial _ intelligence. Paychologiats sometimes criticize the designers : - of systeme of artificial intelligence for their exceasive = "machinocentrism." However, in our opinion, this approach is an adequate ideology for this specilization whose goal is the creation of autonomousmachine programs for solving intel-- _ lectual problems. At the same ti~me, it is not assigned the goal of madeling psychological procesaea; the design of the - programs may be based on other principles than man's process . of thinking and, moreover, it may surpasa the research on the _ psychology of thought. It is not assigned th~e goal of optimiz- - ing the peychological structure of the activity of a person interacting with a system of artificial intelligence since - the person's presence lxere is considered a temporary, compulsory , phenomenon--until programa are designed to automatically accom- pli~h all functions. The strategy for the problems of arti~i- - cial intelligence is one of improving the machine and its intel- lectual potential. _ To the contrary, in all the veraions of the systems of hybrid intelligence, including the man-machine versions, man always r.emains the central f3gure and the machine components of the - - system are oniy the means for his work. The strategy of the problems of hyb rid intell,igence is one of improving man, in- creasing his cxeative and thinking potential. Thus, by their very nature, the systems of hybrid intelligence are anthro- pocentric in contrast to the machinocentric systems of artifi- - ~ cial' intelligence. - *K. Marx and F. Engles.

For exampl,e, ~.f the group of creative taske being accompl3ahed by the individ- ~ - ual in a system of hybrid inCelligence becomes narrower and if the experience accumulated for their accompliahment ie sufficient for a formal description, then reducing this formal - description to machine programs assiated by an individual can - be formulated as.a new task of the system whose work must be ~ reorganized according to the principl~a of artificial intelli- gence. . , ~ On the other hand, premature attempts to design a syatem of , artificial intelligence for functions which are far from being _ complEtely described by alg~rithms are very frequently observed. ~ The individual's partic~pation in such systems is unavoidable and proCracted and it is connected with the a~ccomplie7~ment of f complex creative and responsible taska. At the same time, the machinocentric approach employed for the system which is con- - sidered ae an artificial intelligence provides for a divie:ion of functions between the individual and the machine which is . primarily based upon the functional capabilities of the machine.

However, from the point of view of reflecting the social and biological requirements of m~n--Ch~ moet important factors for determining Ch~ taeke, the intel- - lecCual eynchronization of peopl~ and the individual effect when solving creative problems--the machine cannot add anything new. At the same time, the large capacity of the computer's memory and ite combinatory and calculating capabilities make it pos- eible to efficiently accumulate experience for solving different claseea of problema and they make it poesible to accumulate data on the individual features of problem solving by eeparate operatore and to develop optimal forme for giving each of them advice, reference data, instructione and ~artial-ansWer displays.

Pseudodialoga, varioua typea of emotional perCeptions of the machine as an independent "partner" in interaction,are a epecial group. The problem of languages primarily ariaes in the aense of forming a common, collective, psychological model of the external world [24, 121, 129, 131]. It is especially important to study the processea of sythegizing an integrated model of the problem (for exnmple, an emergency) situation based on the detailed modela which varioua operators have of the indiv3dual atructures _ ~ of the faciliCy (for example, a topological model, a physico~ technological model, a echematir of atatic relaeionshipa, a AchemnCic of dynamic relationehipa). The experience of creating a theory of universal acientific languages may prove beneficial in solving this problem of engineering psychology. One of the central ttasks in realizing the idea of a hybird - intelligence is the individual adapCation of the work organi- - zat~.on, taeke and equipment to each participant of the inter- active syetem. Experiments have revealed a high level of efficiency for individual- and operational-adaptive information systeme equipped with a apecialized signal analyzer which dis- _ tributes them according to priorities and regulatea the overall - intensity of Che atream of information flowing to the operator depending on his individual productivity and psycho-phys3.ological atate. It is anticipated that both of these research d~rections and the syntheais of adaptive eystems will be combined within the frame- work of the general problems of a hybrid intelligence. The development of a theory of individual adaptation must be di- - rected at discovering individual psycho-phyaiological differences, atudying the special features of their manifestation in the operator's activity and studying technical methods and means for compensating for negative manifestations. The development of a common list of indi:�idual differencee and means of compen- - sating for them is an important practical and acientific task of engineering psychology. 14 FOR OFFICIlw USE ONLY APPROVED FOR RELEASE: 2007/02/08: CIA-RDP82-00850R000100040021-3 APPROVED FOR RELEASE: 2007/02/08: CIA-RDP82-00850R000100040021-3 ~OIt OF~ICrAL US~ ONLY = ConcurrentYy, a reaegrch progrnm h~~ been outlined on ehe - problem nf individual adaptaCion of work equipmenC under extr~me conditione.

Fo~ example, individuals with vividly the pronounced eign~a of intro- - verta (reCicent people inclined to individual work) may be more beneficial within a syatem of hybrid intelligence aA - hidden paYt3cipante of the dialog.

For active inter- action with his colleagues and the computer, an extrovert - (a persott inclined to inteneive eocial contact during work) ahould frequently be the operator in a ayatem of hybrid intelligence; during the co~irse of interaction, he muat report on ehe aelected decision method. Combining the processea of - thinking and social contact ia required to aesist the operator ` working on a real-time basie.

In all caaea, individual adaptation is direcCed at reducing the actual complexity of solving operatio~al problems.

In many weatern countries, operator neuro-psychological illnessea - have become a mass occurrence. Our wideepread syeCem of training and select~.ng operatora for high 1eve~.a in hi~Yarchical control syetems played a eignificane role in the fact that this _ problem does not exise in our country. For example, as a rule, people who have proven themaelves in work as controllers of rayon power engineering enter~riaes and as duty eng3neers of eler.trical power eCations become central conCrollera of pow~r systema in Soviet power engineering. Until quite recentily, - work experience ae a bo~ler and Curbine operator was a manda- tory condition for an aesignment to a ma~or power unit as an operator. This long and especially empirical method of train- ing operaCore--operators who frequently have a higher technical - - education--provides them with a broad and firm foundation, handa- - o~ experience, knowledge and aseociative relationshipa between _ the information model and the acCual processes baing controlled. When promoted. a gradual increase in the complexity, an expansion in the scale artd an increase in the degree of reaponaibility of the tasks being accomplished Cake place; the degree oY auccesa in accompliahing these ta8ke serves as the most adequate and natural factor in selecting operatore and advancing them to a higher posit3on. Let's point out in pasaing that thie method - of practical training causes a relatively low level of eignifi- cance for the atructure of the information models since the operatora use large amounts of specific knowledge about the facility, as if it were latent knowledge behind the information � model. However, thiR extensive method of training and aelection does not meet the modern ~onditione of the mass r~ature of the operator vocations. Couraes for~training executives and operatora are being set up; varioua kinde of simulators are being ~iesE:~ainatied. Undoubtedly, the use of simulators plays a aignificant role by supplementing the thE~oretical tr~ining for operators. However, ~ as a simplified and artificial model of the facility, the simulator cannot co~pletely replace training under actual . facility conditions. Therefore, upon immediately landing in high levele of the management hierarchy after this kind of _ Craining, the operators find themselves in a more difficult 4trnits when problem situations arise than do their col- leagues who have gradually been advancing to this level for a long time. 16 FOR OFFICII.L U~E ONLY APPROVED FOR RELEASE: 2007/02/08: CIA-RDP82-00850R000100040021-3 APPROVED FOR RELEASE: 2007/02/08: CIA-RDP82-00850R000100040021-3 rd[t UF'F'T.CIAL USC ONLY The poasibility rf spreAding neuro-paychological illneases gmong Che opert~rars u~ a result of introducing artificial, aCCelerared tr~ining meChods which give rise tio incompleCe and ~ _lnudequr~te paychologicgl modela of the facilitiee being con- ~rolled, Che computere nnd the abgCrnct dieplAy syetems makea tl~e problem of individual adapta~ion of train3ng programe and technical equipment importent to Che state. - buring the procese of creaCing n paychological theory Eor eyntheaizing syatems of adaptive interactive commutticut3on - (hybrid intelligence), it ie neceseary to solve the f~llowing basic probleme: 1.

Specifically, the structural-psychological concept of synthesizing the technical equipmenC for work can serve as a theoretical basis for solving this problem. 3. Discover the psychological principles for the flow of _ conceptual, mnemonic and perceptual processes under the conditions of intensive interactive communication. It is especially important to begin experimental research of the procesaea for forming multidimensional, collective paychological models of complex situationa which are beyond the scope of the individual (for example, when time ia acarce). In this way, methoda of efficient interaction between parti- _ cipF{nts in solving complex creative problema ehould be dis- covered, apecifically during the atages of divergence (generat- ing different ideas and approaches) and convergence (jointly ~arrying out the selected approach; forming the most adequate, uniform ob~ective degree of reality for the collective peycho- logical model).

This meana that in the latter case the average frequency of rare genes is about one order of magnitude higher than in the former case. - These data alone, which establish that rare electruphoretic protein variants are encountered quite frequently in the group of abnormal individuals, have fundamental siqnificance. They confirm the earlier hypothesis (9) that a correlation exists between genetically monomorphic characteristics and the individual's viability, and it would seem that they permit us to assert that the dnminant share of electrophoreti,cally determined rare protein variants - is not inherited from previous generations. In fact, analysis of the blood of the mother and father of a premature child with a variant genotype in relation to LDH (Figure 1) clearly showed that this variant was absent from the parents, w~ile parentage cannot be excluded in relation to 16 polymorphic loci. For understandable reasons it was extremely difficult to obtain blood samples from the parents of children with multiple abnormalities. Nevertheless we were able to study four families in which the child exhibited a rare pro- tein variant,' and to reveal that the same pattern is observed here as well: ' The~variants of erythrocyte esterase (two cases), phosphoglucomutase (one case), and albumin (one case) found in the children were absent from both parents (Figure 1). Here as in the case of mutation in relation to lactate dehydrogenase, parent- - age cannot be excluded in relation to a number of polymorphic genes (Table 2), and consequently there are substantial qrounds for believinq that the identified mutations arose de novo and were not inherited fmm previous generations. _ 22 FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY I APPROVED FOR RELEASE: 2007/02/08: CIA-RDP82-00850R000100040021-3 APPROVED FOR RELEASE: 2007/02/08: CIA-RDP82-00850R000100040021-3 FOR OFFXCTAL USE ONLY Table 1~ Frequency of Rare Electrophoretic VarianLs of Protein in HQalthy In~'Ants, Premature Childran, and qlildren with Developmental Abnormalities - - (1~ aAopoe~ae ~t ~~oittAeHnme ~crtt C n Ker~M ~nmtrpo~poperenec~~n �ccaoAOUniut?~o AeT~ p ~~ahren ,t ~~eAOUOmceawe 6enKN - ~ OB:IN4NH` 3~I VIICAO ~1I1~ ~ Lp:IN4NI19 ~ 3 411QJIQ Jlqi~'~~ L~9e~kH~ ~ nOANtIM UWOo(1ftH, C p@j(NII~f 88pqNHT01I 4E]I. aap~aarow (6) ~Iaxrar~ors~porennaa apnrpoqgroa 498 1 + biannrnnrnnporounaa apnTpoqnroe( ) 498 ~7 i - _ (+3) fiocc~ornaxonarnoru~qporenaaa 504 ~ + ~7 ap~~Tpoqaroe 228 2(~ (9) 3cro aan epnrpoqaTOB 4U8 i+ ''~ocl~lOPniU1SA1~TA3A 8P8Tp0I(NTO~L ~ 429 ~ 227 3t!

Introduction Re~eerch on the brein's electrical eetivity has been actively developed for more . than five decades and is beeoming even more vitel. The foundation for this reseerch wa~ laid by the disaovery of the fluctuating voltages which comprise the so-cailed fundamental electrieal aetivity of the brain, first recorded by Prawdicz-Neminski (1925) in animals; and by Becger (1929) in humans. L.ater on, ais techniques for sensing and amplifying biopotentials end methods of re- gistretion and analysis of electrograms were improved~ a large number of forms of electrical brein activity were desecibed. In some classifications, there are - several dozen forms (Sokolov~ 1962; Kozhevt~ikov~ Mesheherskiy~ 1963; Gu- sel'nikov~ 1976). All bioelectrical activity of the cerebrum is customarily divided into two extreme groups: pulsed and total slow activity.

'Che initiul optimism expressed by researchers that simple relationships could be esti~blished between the processes of information handling and the ~~Ci was fdund to be unju~tified. In spite of th~ faet that elcetrophysinlogy is repletc with e gre~t deel of wide-ranging factual datu Aimed ~t desrribing ~EG sc~mples in different physiolc~ical stat~s, the variegetidn of th~se duta and its frequent contrudictory nature do not imbue it with the ability to reliably define genernl patterns linking eleetri~ul reactions of the brnin with th~ physiological functions of the organism, Th~ problems found in defining these patterns are particularly associated wfth the in~dequate theoretic~l und experimental level of development of the nature of tot~l electricul activity of the brain and its connected structurul links. This in turn mt~kes it impossible to extruet the most meaningful elements end fragments of recordings from eomplex and deceptive E~G curves. The compnrc~tively slow progress in resolving fundamentnl questions of el- eetrophysioingy seems to be related to the fact that the study turget is much more complicnted ~nd deceptive than that in other sciences, such as ~stronomy, physics or chemistry. In ~ddition, electrophysiology (end biology in generr~l) is much slower thnn the "strict sciences" noted above to adopt quantitative mett~ods of study. Due to the enormous complexity of the phenomena being studied, m~ny physiologists are still uncertain of the broad application of mathematical methods. For this reason, and for a number of objective reasons (stute of the grt of registering and processing large quantities of datR, devclopment of inethods af applied mathemAtics), the overwhelming mAjority of facts accumulated by electrophys{ology come from visual analysis and ora! descriptions of clectrogrnms. A natural outcome of this is the current feeble fuith in the data being described and problems of comparison. A similar situation m~y be encountered, it wnuld seem~ in any branch of scientific reseurch if we nre deuling not with evaluutions und comparisons of subjective impressions~ but with objective ~nalysis of phenomenr~ in the real world; the langu~ge of quentitative measurements and comparisons must be used, at that. No matler how strc~nge it scems, these nuturul considerations do not appear to be unconditionally evident in modern physiology+. This is perticularly cleurly shown by thc fact thet in recent yeers works have continued to be published and to enjoy poputarity in which n wide~ convincing justificetion is given for the effecti~~eness end nece~.5ity of using mathematical methods in biology in general and in electrophysiology in pArticul~r (Beyli, 1970; Fomin~ Berkinblit~ 1973). 29 FOR OFFICIAL U5E ONLY APPROVED FOR RELEASE: 2007/02/08: CIA-RDP82-00850R000100040021-3 APPROVED FOR RELEASE: 2007/02/08: CIA-RDP82-00850R000100040021-3 - ~OR O~~ICIAL U5~ dNLY ~l~ctrophysinlogy, ut th~ same time, is a C1enr exampl~ of r~ field of naturul scientifie research where it is theoretiCally impossible to do without the l~nguage of muth~maties.

Under these conditions, human intell~ct se~ms unabl~ to survey this "ne~nn of datu" and explein c~nd study the entire set of interdependent megsurements. The oral description of these observations is even less promising. progress is elearly only possible when factuul muterir~l is produced to revenl its informational value. That is, E~C3s must be objectively, quantitatively analyzed using methem~tieal methods of an~lysis. 'I'h~ tendency to use unulytie methods which allow quantitative definition of unknown funCtions aros~ at almost th~ sam~ time as the birth of ~leC- troencephulography. The initinl use of muthemutical methods was begun by I)iet~ch (1932) und Livunavu (1934) in studying the frequency composition of - I:~(3ti. Such works were, however, for a long time rnre episodes In the pt~y5iological literuture mainly due to the labor-intensiveness of the methods. '1'tie development of mathematieal methods received a significant push in . electrophysiology in the lnte 1940s when computers first eppeured. It was expected that the use of mathematical methods and high-speed computers would p~rmit rapid decoding of information contained in the EEG; ~nd a correlation to be found between the nature of electricul Activity and behuvioral acts. But progress was quite modest in this ~ree. - It appears that it is now still impossible to exhaustively explain the fact that in the 30 years of existence of the computer (a unique technical invention which is one of the most powerful and all-purpose devices in research activity) so little _ hns been contributed to the evolution of physiology. But some problems standing in the way of effective utilization of comput~r technology in electrophysiology are obvious. For example, we could show such fACtors us the need for the physiologist-research~r, when ettempting to use digital computers in his work, to solve A multitude of problems which are unfamilinr to him. In particular, for e~ch computer with a given set of technical characteristics there are problems of dAta input~ screening supenfluous meterial, excluding artifacts, a convenient method of presenting the end result of processing, progrumming~ and so forth. As A rule, physiologists h~ve been unprepared to solve these problems. Disappointment now awaits even those researchers who feel that they only need time and tedious labor to overcome problems. This is especinlly linked with a "shortcoming" of eomputer technology such as its exceedingly high speed, the frequent updating of computer types and generations, software~ and prcr gramming. This ull makes the user feel that computers are "obsolete" as soon as they start up, so you have to hurry as fast as you can not to fall behind, but you still remein in the very snme place (Hamilton, 1971). 30 FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY APPROVED FOR RELEASE: 2007/02/08: CIA-RDP82-00850R000100040021-3 APPROVED FOR RELEASE: 2007/02/08: CIA-RDP82-00850R000100040021-3 i~'OEt d~~ICIAL US1, nNLY 'Che ~ibundanec of ~urrent and pl~nned computers ~ls~ creates a diffi~~ult problem _ of sclecting i~ com~uter to "hook up" with one's ~tudies.

At some laboratories and institutes, for sevcral ye~rs since the acquisition of computers, the number of these studies hus grently exceeded the volum~ ;P research in which "mechine" methods were not employed (Ivenov, Kleshchev, .t975). It seems we cen say thut the computer has been turned from an exotic ~ievice--powerful, unfamiliar~ obedient only to a smnll group of devotees--into a common instrument of physiological resenrch. 31 FOR OFFICIAL USE OM.Y APPROVED FOR RELEASE: 2007/02/08: CIA-RDP82-00850R000100040021-3 APPROVED FOR RELEASE: 2007/02/08: CIA-RDP82-00850R000100040021-3 i ~01t t~~~ICIAL U5~ ONLY ~ N~v~rthelesg, in spit~ of th~ ulm~st daily us~ of camput~rs and the wider ars~nal ~ dP m~themntieAl methods, until now the pietures of E~ds ttnd the meehanics df v~rinu~ E~C3 rhythms ~ti11 r~main gr~atly unclerifi~d. tt is still unkndwn whieh ~~C~ parameters are assoeiated with information processes in the brain, and how mu~h is refleeted in elcetrogrnms of thc brain o~ "physiol+~ica1 prdvtsion nf m~ntal functions" (B~kht~r~va, 1974). ~inglly, one of th~ mein prdbl~ms in electrophysiology has ndt b~en surmounted: the absence of direct ~ffeCtnr m~nifestetions of phenom~na. Prnblems of improving methods of E~C3 annlysis, findfng more meeningful per~met~rs, studying the nnture of individunl forms of electric~l aetivity and their eonnection w{th the bnsic r~spects of CNS activity are thus ns urg~nt a~ before. Attempts to solve some of these problems were investigat~d by the nuthors for th~ pest 10 yesrs and more. This study is a generalizution ~f some of the results _ obtained in that time. The studies were not aimed at examining and edmparing the meaningfulne~s of verious methods of ~~C3 analysis ar effict~nt use of computers in electrophysiology. A more modest task wes set: to evaluate the funetional significanc~ of sp~ctrttl-COrreltttidnal pur~meters of ~~Gs end gmp- litudc-time characteristiCS of vnltnges simultAneousiy sensed from meny points on the brain. These questions were resolved by successive applieation df mcthods of spectrel-correletion~l theory of random process~s ~nd the use of a control digital computer. The results of the work presented in this bonk, we feel, r~ther convineingly prove the effectiveness of using computers to solve simil~~r problems, end ure evidence of the meaningfulness of some EEG indicators which cen only be evulu~ted wfth computer data proc~ssing. In the course of researrh many secondary problems had to be solved, of course: organization of computer data processing in real time, statement of controll~d experiments, hardware and software, studying the statistical structure of signels bcing rccorded, distinetive features and error of the vari~bles beirg anAlyzed, etc. All of these problems were refiected in this book.
