Abstract
In 1970 A. Baker and W. Schmidt introduced regular systems of numbers and vectors, showing that the set of real algebraic numbers forms a regular system on any fixed interval. This fact was used to prove several important results in the metric theory of transcendental numbers. In this paper the concept of a regular system is applied to the set of algebraic integers of height $\leq Q$ in intervals of length depending on $Q$.
