Information and communication technologies support for the participation of universities in innovation networks (comparative study)

Abstract

To ensure and strengthen the development of high-tech R&D and its industrial applications in the long-term perspective, information and communication technologies (ICT) cooperation tools with national and international institutions, network associations and firms are of great importance. To solve this problem, a joint systematic and coordinated work to develop institutions that can provide crucial support to innovation process is crucial. For these purposes, higher educational institutions (HEI) innovation activities information and communication support and technological development analysis are critically important. The purpose of this study is to analyze the existing ICT toolkit, which is used to manage R&D and various industrial applications, and to develop a conceptual framework for the implementation of these tools for the participation of universities in innovation networks. To answer this question, authors begin by taking a closer look at the new role of universities in the development of knowledge generation in a global environment, as well as problems and tendencies under conditions of postindustrial society. The new role of universities in knowledge generation in the global environment development, and problems and tendencies under the conditions of postindustrial society were outlined. Modern ICT components, which are necessary for universities to participate in the innovation networks, were analyzed. Some cases of foreign experience in the scientific and innovation networks of current prototypes of Industry 4.0 development were discussed, and the possibilities of its adaptation to national innovation system formation conditions in Ukraine were identified. By theoretical and empirical examining, the authors propose more complete understanding of modern ICT components, which are necessary for universities to participate in innovation networks. Cases of foreign experience in the scientific and innovation networks of current prototypes of Industry 4.0 development were investigated. Moreover, the evidence from this study suggests a variety of factors related to the possibilities to adapt ICT tools to national innovation system formation in Ukraine.

Quantity Assessment of the Risk of Investment Projects

“…High tech is a technology that systematically uses scientific and technical experience. Innovative products are sophisticated products that require specialized technological knowledge, are prone to aging technologies, and are produced by companies employing at least twice as much technical staff as conventional companies and investing at least twice as much in research and development amount of cash [2].…”

Informational Support of Cash Flow Management Processes in Public Administration

“…Decision making itself is carried out in the form of management functions that reflect the temporary stages of management: planning, organization of command and control. The methodology of managing financial flows of the state should take into account their distinctive properties [8][9][10]: 1) their movement occurs in monetary (value) form; 2) purposefulness (money funds are created and spent strictly in accordance with the intended purpose); 3) a high degree of organization, due to the need to coordinate the interests of the subjects of the financial system; 4) regulation (the movement of financial resources is carried out in accordance with laws, plans, programs and other regulations); 5) the need for monitoring the implementation of rules for the movement of financial resources. In general terms, the scheme of state financial flows is presented in Fig.1.…”

Methods of Pedagogical Psychology in Education

“…Pedagogy has long been considered a very traditional science, rather even conservative. The working teaching methods were not revised and improved, simply because it seemed that they were working so well [1][2][3].…”
