Specialists Moscow City Services Complex Construction of a new high-pressure gas pipeline has begun in the Filevsky Park area in the western part of the capital. The project aims to expand the city's existing gas system.

"To minimize the impact on the urban environment, the closed passages were divided into 17 separate sections. Tunneling is carried out using a special machine (shield). Its forward movement is provided by a powerful jacking station installed in the launch shaft. This technology makes it possible to lay the network at intervals of up to 300 meters, which speeds up construction and reduces environmental risks," noted Alexander Chistov, Deputy General Director for Capital Construction at Mosgaz JSC.

Work began in late 2025 on the section between Minskaya and Bolshaya Filevskaya Streets. The project calls for laying approximately four kilometers of pipeline.

During the work, specialists use a combination of open and closed installation methods. The trenchless method utilizes microtunneling technology. This method allows for the installation of gas pipelines at significant depths without extensive excavation, which is especially important in densely populated areas with numerous underground utilities and heavy traffic.

The new gas pipeline will be equipped with two modern, domestically manufactured shutoff valves. They are controlled remotely from Mosgaz JSC's central control room, significantly improving the speed of response to emergency situations. They can shut off the gas supply within one and a half minutes.

In addition, specialists ensure the quality of welded joints using visual and radiographic methods. This ensures high quality and safety standards are maintained.

Earlier, Sergei Sobyanin announced that the capital is undertaking a comprehensive program to upgrade utility networks. This will reduce their wear and tear, create reserves for connecting new consumers, and guarantee a stable supply of all necessary resources. In 2025 alone, more than 144 kilometers of gas networks have been built and 37 kilometers reconstructed. This year, over 145 kilometers are planned for construction and 19.2 kilometers for reconstruction. gas networks.

The Moscow City Services Complex noted that the projects being implemented in the capital to modernize and improve the reliability of public utility infrastructure are in line with the goals and objectives of the national project.

NSU has developed an AI service for creating audio versions of scientific books.

Translation. Region: Russian Federation –

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

Novosibirsk State University has launched a service for automatically creating audio versions of books from the digitized collection of the University's Scientific Library. The project is based on developments by the NSU Research Center for Artificial Intelligence (AI Center) and is currently undergoing testing. Following the successful completion of the pilot project, the technology is planned to be rolled out to other libraries.

At this stage, we are talking about converting books from the university press and materials posted in the electronic library into audio format, with the permission of the copyright holders—a total of about seven thousand titles.

The audio is generated by a neural network: the text is extracted from a PDF, pre-processed, and then an audio version is created. "In the future, we plan to convert all books available in the NSU e-library into audio format. Currently, this number is around 7,000," said Evgeny Pavlovsky, a leading researcher at the NSU Center for Artificial Intelligence and a PhD candidate in physics and mathematics. According to him, the service is not intended to completely replace traditional reading, but is being created as an alternative form of access to text.

"We don't create a voiceover that completely replicates the original. It's an additional way to work with the book. For mass use, it's important that the solution isn't resource-intensive: one book takes about half an hour of processor time, and we're talking about a 16-core processor, even without a graphics card," he explained.

The service is based on the Kappa framework, developed at the NSU AI Center. It is designed for managing datasets and artificial intelligence models, testing them, and evaluating them before implementing them in workflows. The framework allows for checking the correctness of models and reducing the risk of errors or so-called AI "hallucinations." In the new project, Kappa is used to prepare training data for voiceover and collect feedback on the quality of the results.

The first hundred books have already been read in pilot mode, and the team is now awaiting feedback from the library and users. Here's one of them. examples of the service's operationNSU emphasizes that the project is being considered a technological test. Once the technology itself and the mechanisms for interacting with the library have been refined, the service may be offered to other universities and public libraries through a partner platform or in other formats. According to the developers, in terms of computing resources, audio recording of the entire collection is possible within a month, but organizational preparation and verification of the audio recording results may take up to a year.

Deputy Prime Minister Tatyana Golikova attended a meeting of the Rosarkhiv Board, where the agency's work over the past year was summarized and plans for 2026 were outlined. Rosarkhiv Director Andrei Artizov presented a report on the activities of the Russian archival industry.

"The domestic archival industry today comprises nearly 2,500 state and municipal archives, hundreds of departmental archives, and tens of thousands of organizational archives. All of them play a vital role in public administration, social and humanitarian affairs, scientific research, and education. One of the most important tasks you perform is preserving national memory and passing on traditional Russian spiritual and moral values from generation to generation," Tatyana Golikova said in her opening remarks.

She noted the extensive work of Russian archivists in providing information support for the 80th anniversary of the Great Victory, and, above all, the historical and documentary exhibition "Without the Right to Be Forgotten" at the State Historical Museum, which was visited by more than 140,000 people from 25 countries.

The Deputy Prime Minister emphasized the need to continue efforts to preserve the memory of our country's glorious and heroic past, focusing on countering attempts to falsify the history of the Great Patriotic War, and objectively presenting the war crimes committed by the Nazis and their collaborators, based on archival documents and historical research, actively utilizing the full potential of modern technology for a broad public audience, especially young people. It is also important to ensure the documented preservation of the memory of those who participated in the special military operation.

"President Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin has declared 2026 the Year of Unity of the Peoples of Russia. Its main goal is to strengthen national unity, peace, and harmony among all the peoples of our multinational country. Archives, serving as a link between the past, present, and future, preserve the continuity of traditions, knowledge, and values, helping people recognize their belonging to family, nation, and country," the Deputy Prime Minister emphasized.

Speaking about the agency's progress, Tatyana Golikova noted that the transition to electronic interaction between archives and users has been completed. "The majority of citizens' requests related to their pension provision were processed through a unified digital platform for social services. This has significantly improved the quality and efficiency of pension services. Since January 2024, state and municipal archives have processed approximately 5 million social and legal requests received from territorial offices of the Social Fund of Russia. I would like to thank my colleagues for such proactive work and ask them to maintain this momentum," she said.

Furthermore, an electronic service for remote access to archival documents was launched in 2025. "Now it allows not only searching for archival information but also viewing digitized images of nearly 80,000 federal archive files. This work must continue. We must expand the functionality of the state information system to allow for online ordering of electronic copies of archival files. We must expedite the development of regional archives' connection to the service. It is also important for us to continue digitizing archival documents and placing them in the information system in 2026. We must continue to inform our citizens about the availability of this service, how to use it, and the benefits it provides," the Deputy Prime Minister said.

Tatyana Golikova emphasized that another priority is ensuring the safety and state registration of documents in our country's Archival Fund, which contains over 570 million items. In this regard, special attention must be paid to the systematic modernization of fire safety systems and anti-terrorism protection at facilities housing federal archives.

In conclusion, Tatyana Golikova congratulated all industry workers on the upcoming Archives Day and expressed gratitude to all Russian archivists for their professional and responsible approach to their work.
