5. Why do we need to know about specificity and common trends of technology revolutions? How to be prepared for the next technology revolution? During Teaching & Learning process we will ask Why & How questions rather then What & Which.

6. Why do we need to know about specificity and common trends of Technology Revolutions? We are at the frontier of the next technology revolution, as a cycle of particular TR last 40-60 years. They occur once or twice during the century. By the end of 2nd decade of XX century it is anticipated, that invention of quantum computers will reshape our society and economy, in general all the spheres of human activity. Four converging technologies are considered as driving forces for next TR. Now we are in the final stage of cyber-revolution, which was started in 1971 with the invention of microprocessors.

7. Convergent Technologies of 21 st Century Cognitive Sciences Biotechnology Information Technology Nanotechnology

8. New Era of Convergente Technologies

9. Possibility to combine living biological objects and unloving material. Interaction between cellular elements of biological tissues, e.g. nerves with electro chips, will result: 1. Human Enhancement 2. Artificial intelligence 3. Bio computers 4. Self assembly of robotics Convergent Technologies INFO Information technology controls: Bits Nanotechnology controls and manipulates:Atoms Cognitive Neurosciences enables control of the mind by manipulating: Neurons Biotechnology controls and manipulates life by engineering: Genes BIO COGNO NANO

10. Bibliometric & Patent Analysis reflecting university inventions rate and commercialization opportunities We can look how publications and patents change recently according to certain technology. Patents and publications are two main domains of economic growth. Bibliometric analysis reflect rate of university inventions, while patent analysis is indicator of industrial activity. State governments support and funding is also main indicator of excellence of technology.

Nobel Prize Awards 1986 IBM - Binnig & Rohrer 1990 Eigler & Schweitzer

13. 1996 Nobel Prize for Chemistry Robert F. Curl Jr. & Richard E. Smalley & Harold W. Kroto for their discovery of buckminsterfullerene, the scientific name for buckyballs

14. We should know about steps of technology development. Technology trigger. Peak of inflated expectations. Trough of disillusionment. Slope of enlightenment. Plateau of productivity.

Main Topics of the Course: Main Topics of the Course: 1.Technology Revolution 2.Innovation 3.Transfer of invention from University to Industry 4.Techno parks, science incubators, spin-offs and start –ups 5.Future studies, forecasitng, foresights technics 6.Theory and management of Knowledge – epistemology – why and how to know, rather then what and which topics to know.

16. Why is crucial Innovation management in the period of technology revolution? How to perform timely the Innovation?

17. Innovation is the term adopted from economy and is applied to every field from IT to medicine. It differs from Invention, which originates from science and technology. Innovation is ‘commercial introduction of something new’ in other words ‘successful implementation of new idea(s)’. Innovation may be radical or incremental. Innovation vs. Invention

22. On of the aims of this module is to learn how to look ahead into our possible future. Planning for success requires from us to learn some methods and techniques of future foresight. Today we should be prepared to meet realities of tomorrow. We could not predict our future, but we are able to plan, road map, or forecast possible scenarios, Future Studies

23. The Delphi methodThe Delphi method is a systematic, interactive forecasting method which relies on a panel of experts. The Delphi method has been an anticipatory thinking (futures) technique aimed at building an agreement, or consensus about an opinion or view, without necessarily having experts meet face to face. First was developed at the beginning of the cold war to forecast the impact of technology on warfare.

Main Topics of the Course: 1.Technology Revolution 2.Innovation 3.Transfer of invention from University to Industry 4.Techno parks, science incubators, spin-offs and start –ups 5.Future studies, forecasitng, foresights technics 6.Theory and management of Knowledge – epistemology – why and how to know, rather then what and which topics to know.

25. As an Independent University course first was introduced in 2000. In Business Administration, IT, Public health, Public policy. 95% assets of IT companies comprised of intellectual properties of own employees. Public policy Knowledge management involves the identification and analysis of available and required knowledge, and the subsequent planning and control of actions to develop knowledge assets so as to fulfil organisational objectives.
