Alexander Tetelbaum (born August 16, 1948) is an American-Ukrainian computer scientist [1] [2] [3], educator [4], academician [5] [6] , inventor [7] [8] [9] [10], entrepreneur [11] [12], and novelist [13] [14] .


Renowned for his pioneering contributions to Electronic Design Automation (EDA) [15] [16] [17] [18] [19] [20] [21]

and Artificial Intelligence (AI) [22] [23] [24] .


Tetelbaum has been active in these fields since the 1960s. He is the founder and first president of the International Solomon University, established in 1991 to promote academic innovation and research [25] [26] [27] [28].


With over 40 U.S. patents [29] and 250 publications – 20 books, more than 100 scientific papers, and 150 conference proceedings, Tetelbaum's work has significantly impacted technology and science. He has been honored with government medals for “Government Medal “For outstanding achievements in science and technology” (1985) and "Achievements in Science" (1991) [30].


Recognized by WorldAtlas.com as a notable Ukrainian inventor [31] , Tetelbaum’s legacy is further commemorated by a star named "Dr. Alexander Tetelbaum" in the constellation Leo (Right Ascension: 10h41m55.30s, Declination: +08.24.52.0) [32].


Tetelbaum has held numerous esteemed positions across academia and industry, receiving various honors and awards throughout his career. He is a Fellow and Honorary Doctor at several academic institutions and organizations, including: • Foreign Fellow of the Russian Academy of Natural Sciences (since 1995), • Foreign Fellow of the Russian Fuzzy Systems Association (since 1996) [33], • ABI Research Fellow at the American Biographical Institute (since 1996), • Honorary Doctor at Dneprodzerzhinsk State Technical University [34] (1996).


Dr. Tetelbaum’s contributions have been recognized in numerous biographical directories, reflecting his influence and prominence in the fields of science, technology, and education. He has been included in several prestigious publications, including: • Who’s Who in the World (12th–14th Editions, 1995–1997) [35], • Longman Reference on Research Directories (1994) [36], • Men of Achievement (16th–17th Editions, 1994–1995) [37] , • Who’s Who in Technology (17th Edition, 1995) [38], • Who’s Who in American Education (5th Edition, 1996–1997) [39], • 5000 Personalities of the World (5th Edition, 1996) [40], • Who’s Who in Science and Engineering (3rd Edition, 1996–1997) [41], • The International Directory of Distinguished Leadership (6th Edition, 1996) [42]. These inclusions underscore Dr. Tetelbaum's enduring impact on the academic and scientific communities, as well as his dedication to advancing education and technological innovation.


Early life and education

[edit]

Alexander Tetelbaum was born on August 4, 1948, in Kyiv, Ukraine, to Yakov and Eugina Tetelbaum, both Jewish and survivors of the Holocaust. His father, a professor at the Kyiv Polytechnic Institute and served in World War II, earning several medals. Tragically, he passed away in 1963 at the age of 36 from a perforated ulcer, likely worsened by inadequate wartime nutrition, and due to a medical error. Alexander’s mother, Eugina, an engineer at a military plant, passed away in 2016 at the age of 93. He also has a twin sister, Maria. At six months old, Alexander suffered a severe burn on his arm, requiring two months of hospitalization and three surgeries due to infections caused by contaminated syringes. His weight was less than the weight he was born. His health struggles as a young child contributed to a challenging early development, including some speech issues. Although his parents were never members of the Communist Party and were privately critical of the regime, they emphasized education and critical thinking. Initially, Alexander was a C student with little interest in academics, but in seventh grade, his focus changed dramatically. His aptitude for mathematics led him to an advanced school specializing in math and physics. During that time, he won several math Ukrainian Olympiads. He developed an early interest in electronics, inventing a machine to grade multiple-choice exams and a digital lock, both of which won national student awards. Additionally, he pursued gymnastics, becoming a master of the sport. Alexander graduated from the Kyiv Mathematical High School with honors and enrolled in the National Technical University of Ukraine in 1966. The following year, he married Slava Bass and began working part-time as a mechanic in a radio-electronics lab. Soon after, he was hired as a junior scientist by his department chair, Professor Vitaly Sigorsky. He wrote his first paper in 1968, which was published in 1971, "Some Theorems about Circuit Matrix Functions," in Electronic Design Automation (Kyiv, 1971). During his university years, Tetelbaum received the "National Technical University of Ukraine Distinguished Scholarship" (1966–1972) and won multiple National Competitions for "The Best Student Scientific Work" (1970–1972). By the end of his six-year program, he had authored eight published papers. In 1972, he graduated with an MS in Electronics with high honors. After graduation, he worked in the CAD Department at the Kyiv Institute of Cybernetics (1972–1973) before entering a PhD program at the National Technical University of Ukraine. In 1975, he published 19 papers and completed his PhD dissertation, titled “Research and Development of Computer Methods for Electronic Design Automation.” He was awarded a PhD in Electrical and Computer Engineering by the university’s Scientific Panel, with this degree recognized by the Highest Attestation Commission of the Soviet Union.
