Svetlana Novikava was born on April 19, 1947, in Mogilev, in the Mahilyowskaya Voblasts' region of Belarus. She is the daughter of Ivan and Zinaida. Her professional development combined mathematical training with long-term research and organizational work in Belarusian scientific institutions.
Novikava studied mathematics at Krasnoyarsk State University from 1963 to 1968 and obtained a Master of Science degree. Her mathematical training formed the academic foundation for her later work in mathematical cybernetics, hierarchical systems, knowledge networks, and the design of information technologies.
Novikava began her documented research career as a researcher at Belarus State University from 1973 to 1976. From 1977 to 1991 she served as a chief researcher in the Belarus Academy of Sciences. In 1991 she became head of the Hierarchical Multilevel Systems Laboratory, where her work addressed hierarchical multilevel systems, mathematical cybernetics, knowledge networks, and processors. During the laboratory's development, she also coordinated science projects at the Institute of Mathematical and Cybernetics from 1996 to 1999 and served as its director from 1997 to 1999. A 1997 scientific publication described her as head of the laboratory and identified the organization as the first nongovernmental scientific organization in Belarus. Her research interests included mathematics and the development of knowledge networks and processors, and she was credited with 53 scientific papers.
