The paper deals with life cycle management of a 3-D printer technology to design an underwater drone hull to study the Arctic. The Arctic region is of strategic importance for the Russian Federation and the entire world community. Due to harsh climatic conditions the scientists started to search for more efficient ways of not only using resources of the territory but also retaining sustainable development of the region. The paper presents a graph that includes activities involved in a 3-D printer life cycle design. A 3-D printer is used for a layer growth of an underwater drone’s hull. The authors took into consideration all the existing options of development, operation and disposal of a particular 3D printer and identified eight variants of its life cycle design based on various financial resources and timing budgets. The study helped to identify a number of effective options. Information and mathematical systems support the implementation of the life cycle management of technology. We selected the following mathematical tools: mathematical programming methods, mathematical statistics, process simulation tools, routine problems, queuing theories. The paper focuses on such information management tools as systems programs, development programs and application software.
