The development of new technologies in recent years has highlighted interdisciplinarity as a tool to solve complex problems faced by scientists and engineers in research work. Worldwide, the area of space science, specifically astrobiology, has had more than 25 missions with high technological development and economic returns. However, the success of interdisciplinary teams requires collaboration, responsibility, and leadership on the part of all members to prioritize the main objectives of the research. Likewise, the formation of interdisciplinary teams can be affected because there is little information about the strategies and tools that recognize the opportunity for constant interaction between subjects from engineering and science. Using a known methodology based on other recent proposals, we include a description of the conformation and behavior of a research team and an analysis of interdisciplinarity through the interrelation and level of dependence of the existing subject categories in the “Killalab” team. In this research, we present the ensemble interdisciplinary group “Killalab” and its implications for the realization of astrobiological investigations.

This study investigates how environments into which new technologies are introduced interact and interfere with the deployment process, the deployed technologies as well as the research conducted. The material that is used in this study draws from the N4C project development and deployment of Delay Tolerant Network (DTN) technology in the remote Arctic villages of Ritsem and Staloluokta. As the development of DTN technology prior to the deployment was conducted primarily in the laboratories, its usability and functionality still needed to be proven on the field of deployment. Here, Actor Network Theory (ANT) was employed to reveal how climate, flora, fauna and other elements present in the field of deployment interacted and interfered with, but more importantly, drove the technological development and the continued research work.

Purpose: in the Arsenal of economic theory, there are many models applicable to the development of the country's economy. Currently, along with the need for the development of the digital economy, various paradigms are proposed, including advanced development. The purpose of the study is to show that advanced development is a multidimensional phenomenon, it includes many factors, including technology. The task is to reveal the role of technology in the advanced development of the region.Methods: the methodological basis of the study is based on the use of a systematic approach and General scientific methods: scientific abstraction, analysis and synthesis, generalization, system-structural analysis, methods of statistical analysis and groupings.Results: it is proved that in the conditions of increased competition between the countries the most acceptable is the transition to the paradigm of advanced development. The structure of the model of advanced development includes various factors, one of which is the technology with the capabilities that allow you to become important drivers of development. The adoption of the proposed approach will ensure sustainable technological development and increase the level of independence from external factors.Conclusions and Relevance: in order to manage emerging new technologies a new way of thinking and behavior is needed, they must be supported by appropriate institutions. This conclusion is due to the fact that the development of new technologies is subject to a certain rule, which is mandatory. The implementation of advanced development becomes possible in the event that economic entities will be able to fully master all the functionality of new technologies.

Abstract In the era of interdisciplinary research supported by IT solutions, a special role is played by digital source repositories. The digital turn has contributed to their considerable development, and the application of new technologies has largely changed the current methods of research work. This facilitates pooling and structuring dispersed collections e.g. as part of thematic repositories, which collect and share thematically related resources. Metadata, which allow effective searching and identification of resources, are an important element of their function. The objective of the article is to present a procedure for the development of metadata aimed at creation of a thematic database of dispersed sources remaining after the Paris Peace Conference ending World War I. Based on the metadata development procedure, the author discusses the diagnosed problems associated with e.g. the specificity of the analyzed sources.

It is generally believed that incineration systems based on combustion grates are old fashioned and it is widely understood that there are no new developments in that area. This image is incorrect; it is proven technology – but it is still improving! The waste-to-energy sector has undergone a rapid technological development over the latest 10 years. Lately, new technologies have been introduced, such as Advanced Combustion Control (ACC), the use of Inconel® protection in boilers, boiler cleaning, water cooled combustion grates and wear zones. Moreover, the presentation will show how modern engineering tools such as CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics software) are used for designing the best furnace and boiler configurations. These new developments are illustrated through a case study of a new class of waste fired power plant burning 20 tonnes of waste per hour. This paper will present some of the test results from operating the plant, including the development of a new advanced control system.

Media refers to the channels of communication through which we distribute news, education, movies, music, advertising messages and other information. It includes physical and online newspapers and magazines, television, radio, telephone, the Internet, fax and billboards, are a dominant force in lives of children. Although television is remaining the predominant medium for children and adolescents, the new technologies are become more popular. We have to concern about the potential harmful effects of media "messages and images"; however, the positive and negative effects of media should be recognized. Parents have to establish the plan for all media in family home. Media that are influences on children should be recognized by "schools, policymakers, product advertisers, and entertainment producers".

Modern youth and the student community today play a key role in the development of social and social life. Due to the peculiarities of the university space, the student community is in constant interaction and communication, both in the framework of the educational process and events of various formats, and in social and everyday conditions. In the context of interactions, this social group, which is most at risk of spreading negative ideologies that threaten not only the personal security of everyone, but also peaceful coexistence in the conditions of a multinational society in Russia. In the absence of educational measures as a prevention, an unfavorable environment arises in which it is very easy to influence the thinking of young people, their involvement in nationalist movements, extremist activities, etc. Hence the concept of «youth extremism» appears, which is manifested in the views and behavior of young people based on the manifestation of aggression and non-acceptance of dissenters. The search for new technologies of psychological support that allow to form cultural tolerance, value orientations and prevent the spread of extremist ideologies becomes relevant. The authors consider a set of measures that contribute to the generalization, dissemination, as well as the introduction into the student environment of the best practices of spiritual and moral education, the development of interethnic and interreligious dialogue, and the prevention of negative ideologies. To implement these tasks, it is necessary to form a pool of specialists in the prevention of extremism in the student environment, hold seminars and meetings for vice-rectors of universities on security and educational work, as well as educational seminars for managers of student organizations. This will make it possible to form leadership student associations that broadcast the values of cultural tolerance to the youth environment.
