“…The main reasons were the feudal structure in science and technology […] and the chaos in the production system.” These strikingly dramatic words, written 20 years ago by Denchev ( 1993 , p. 57), describe the situation in the science and technology system in Bulgaria, but one can ascribe them to the science systems in all the Eastern European (EE) countries before the 1990s. The problems listed by Denchev ( 1993 ) were among the main reasons for scientific stagnation in the EE countries. The negative influence of the Soviet Union (e.g.…”

The negative influence of the Soviet Union (e.g., with its centrally planned economy and inflexible structures) on scientific developments in its member states as well as its allies in the Warsaw pact was large.…”

Did the demise of the Soviet Union in 1991 influence the scientific performance of the researchers in Eastern European countries? Did this historical event affect international collaboration by researchers from the Eastern European countries with those of Western countries? Did it also change international collaboration among researchers from the Eastern European countries? Trying to answer these questions, this study aims to shed light on international collaboration by researchers from the Eastern European countries (Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, Moldova, Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Romania, and Slovakia). The number of publications and normalized citation impact values are compared for these countries based on InCites (Thomson Reuters), from 1981 up to 2011. The international collaboration by researchers affiliated to institutions in Eastern European countries at the time points of 1990, 2000 and 2011 was studied with the help of Pajek and VOSviewer software, based on data from the Science Citation Index (Thomson Reuters). Our results show that the breakdown of the communist regime did not lead, on average, to a huge improvement in the publication performance of the Eastern European countries and that the increase in international co-authorship relations by the researchers affiliated to institutions in these countries was smaller than expected. Most of the Eastern European countries are still subject to changes and are still awaiting their boost in scientific development.

“…In conclusion we can say that the use of the visual and event-oriented programming in the Computer science courses is excellent choice and they give us perfect results. For successful implementation of training courses that use the full potential of modern technology, very important are both the mindset and attitude of the lecturers to these technologies, and their use in the learning process, to achieve the educational goals [11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19].…”

<p class="abstract"><span lang="EN-US">Today we live in a society of high technologies, advanced information and com-munication systems in every field, including education. So, in modern education, teachers make full use of the possibilities of modern Information and Communi-cation Technologies (ICT). In this case, the attitude of the teachers towards the use of computers, to achieve the educational goals, is very important. To have the technologies sustained and significant effect, students in secondary and higher schools need to understand how to use them. The goal of this article is to help of students in secondary and higher schools to acquire enough practical program-ming skills and to learn the sorting algorithms, i.e. the article considers basic sort-ing algorithms. We developed and describe here software with name “Visual sorting” that shows visual, the execution of the basic sorting algorithms: Bubble sort; Selection sort; Insertion sort; Merge sort. Also, our software provides inter-active tracking of the performance (step by step) of different sorting algorithms.</span></p>
