When making decisions in various fields of human activity, it is often required to create text documents. Traditionally, the study of texts is engaged in linguistics, which in a broad sense can be understood as a part of semiotics — the science of signs and sign systems, while semiotic objects are of different types. The method of rank distributions is widely used for the quantitative study of sign systems. Rank distribution is a set of item names sorted in descending order by frequency of occurrence. For frequency-rank distributions, researchers often use the term «power-law distributions».

In this paper, the rank distribution method is used to analyze the Criminal Code of various countries. The general idea of the approach to solving this problem is to consider the code as a text document, in which the sign is the measure of punishment for certain crimes. The document is presented as a list of occurrences of a specific word (character) and its derivatives (word forms). The combination of all these signs characters forms a punishment dictionary, for which the occurrence frequency of each punishment in the code text is calculated. This allows us to transform the constructed dictionary into a frequency dictionary of punishments and conduct its further research using the V. P. Maslov approach, proposed to analyze the linguistics problems. This approach introduces the concept of the virtual frequency of crime occurrence, which is an assessment measure of the real harm to society and the consequences of the crime committed in various spheres of human life. On this path, the paper proposes a parametrization of the rank distribution to analyze the punishment dictionary of the Special Part of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation concerning punishments for economic crimes. Various versions of the code are considered, and the constructed model was shown to reflect objectively undertaken over time by legislators its changes for the better. For the Criminal Codes in force in the Federal Republic of Germany and the People’s Republic of China, the texts including similar offenses and analogous to the Russian special section of the Special Part were studied. The rank distributions obtained in the article for the corresponding frequency dictionaries of codes coincide with those obtained by V. P. Maslov’s law, which essentially clarifies Zipf’s law. This allows us to conclude both the good text organization and the adequacy of the selected punishments for crimes.

Efficiency and completeness of the numerical simulation in oceanography and hydrometeorology are entirely determined by algorithmic features of the construction of an interactive computer simulations in the scale of the oceans with adaptive coated closed seas and coastal waters refined mathematical models, with the possibility of specifying software parallelization calculations near the concrete — the protected areas of the sea coast. An important component of the research is continuous graphical visualization techniques in the course of calculations, including those undertaken in parallel processes with shared RAM or test points on the external media. The results of computational experiments are used in the description of hydrodynamic processes near the coast, which is important in keeping the organization of sea control services and forecasting marine hazards.

The technique of ensuring of interoperability for Grid-systems and systems of cloud computing is provided. The technique is constructed on a basis of the uniform approach of ensuring interoperability for systems of the wide class offered by authors and recorded in the national Russian Federation standard.

In the design of a distributed library system, there are a lot of organizational problems, ideas, solutions which are the subject of this article. The article presents the approaches on crowd funding platforms that are used as a tool for attracting participants and financing project.

The paper discusses the design and verification stages in the development of complex numerical algorithms to create direct computational experiments in fluid mechanics. The modeling of physical fields and nonstationary processes of continuum mechanics, it is desirable to rely on strict rules of construction the numerical objects and related computational algorithms. Synthesis of adaptive the numerical objects and effective arithmetic- logic operations can serve to optimize the whole computing tasks, provided strict following and compliance with the original of the laws of fluid mechanics. The possibility of using ternary logic enables to resolve some contradictions of functional and declarative programming in the implementation of purely applied problems of mechanics. Similar design decisions lead to new numerical schemes tensor mathematics to help optimize effectiveness and validate correctness the simulation results. The most important consequence is the possibility of using interactive graphical techniques for the visualization of intermediate results of modeling, as well as managed to influence the course of computing experiment under the supervision of engineers aerohydrodynamics– researchers.
