Abstract

The universities in Russian Federation are now in the transition process to competence approach usage. Federal State Educational Standards are used to guarantee appropriate level of university graduates competence. To achieve this goals a great methodical activity is needed. A complex set of educational methodical documents must be developed, controlled, published and implemented by each university. We focus on the labor costs of university staff on educational methodic activities. Our goal – is to estimate labor expenditures and to discuss the ways to reduce them.We use unified model language (UML) to create visual models of university methodical activity processes. Then we use computer-aided generation of simulation models from UML diagrams. Simulation results include labor costs on educational methodical activities processes. Simulation can discover most expensive operations and processes, estimate total expenditures of the university staff. Automation effect on educational methodical economics can be also assessed. We discuss directions of lowering expenditures on educational methodical activities with automation and process optimization.
