Many efforts have been made in developing the National Innovation System (NIS) concept. However, there are the limitations, which do not make it operable and effective in practice. This investigation attempts to eliminate some limitations of the approach. The NIS is presented as three interrelated macro blocs: business environment, environment producing new knowledge, and knowledge transfer mechanism. The principles of performance and efficiency measuring of NIS are proposed. The system structure-object and functional approaches to NIS performance and efficiency are applied. The former is used for decomposition of NIS objects of high aggregation level. The latter is available for analysis of NIS efficiency and its factors. The methods allow the estimation of the NIS component by component and identification of the cause-effect chains of factor impacts on its elements. The key policy tools tailored to liquidate and mitigate market failure and NIS dysfunctions are proposed.

The article considers the current and future systems for assessing the effectiveness of the use of state resources to create a national innovation system as a factor in improving the economic security of the state, the author develops a methodological approach to assessing the effectiveness of the use of state resources to create a national innovation system. The cyclical development of the world economy in the conditions of globalization is connected, first of all, with the change of technological structures, as well as with the provision of competitiveness for all levels of economic management. In the domestic and foreign economic literature, there is an idea of the national innovation system, which covers all types of economic objects in the country with innovations, increasing their competitiveness, and, thus, the national economy as a whole, and also directly affects the increase in the level of economic security of the country. Most developed countries and many developing countries have already established or are in the process of establishing their national innovation systems, built either on the basis of models already known and tested in other countries, or new, unique models for building innovation systems. The differences between these models of creation of national innovation systems of different countries are, both in the levels of economic objects, which are the basis of innovative breakthrough, and in the degree of use of public resources: "centralized model", based on public resources, or "market model", or a mixed model of "public-private partnership". These issues are the basis for consideration of the presented article. The methodological basis for writing the article was modern scientific research methods, including: dialectical method, method of system analysis, methods of analogy, comparative analysis, expert methods, structural-functional and normative approaches.

Influences from the modern business environment indicate the need for the incorporation of sustainability concepts from an innovation system perspective. In the presented research, we emphasize the energy efficiency concept within the frame of sustainability and innovation. The aim of this research was to underline and explore the relationships between innovation, energy efficiency, and sustainability in the construction industry. To answer the research questions, a questionnaire was created to explore the impact of the energy efficiency certification process on the innovation behavior of construction industry enterprises in Serbia. The results show that energy efficiency has supported innovation, and that there exists a relationship between sustainability and innovativeness in the construction industry. Applying energy efficiency passports has influenced the co-operation of enterprises in the construction sector and other actors in the national innovation system in Serbia. The innovation concept demonstrates that enterprises in the construction industry should be observed as a part of the wider picture—the national innovation system. In turn, the specific context of a particular national innovation system should be seen within the wider picture of national innovation systems of Central and Eastern European Countries (CEECs).

Problem setting . The modern intensive development of the national innovation system determines the expansion offorms of interaction both between the subjects of the national innovation system and with other participants in a widerange of legal relationships. In this respect, the importance of positive interaction at the regional level of local selfgovernmentbodies and actors of the innovation system. Analysis of recent researches and publications . The issues of essence, formation, structure and legal regulation ofthe national innovation system and innovative structures were explored in their works as scientist-economists, such asN.M Bunyak, V.B Butorina, O.O Lyakhovets, E.V Kosovan, and legal scholars: Yu. E. Atamanova, S. V Hlibko,E. A Novikov, L. V Tsindenova, A. V. Strizhkov. Scientific researches on development of innovative activity, forms ofinteraction of local authorities and subjects of national innovation system were carried out by S.V Glibko,I. Yu. Matyushenko, M.S Pasmore and other. Target of research . The purpose of the study is to analyze theoretical and regulatory approaches to understandingthe term «national innovation system» and its content in Ukraine and the EU, to study the legal problems of the functioningof certain types of innovation structures in Ukraine, as well as to identify the most common and effective forms of suchinteraction at the regional level of local authorities self-government and subjects of the national innovation system. Article’s main body . Innovative infrastructures primarily operate in the form of a limited liability company. This isdue to the presence of a number of advantages in the creation and activities of such legal entities. Regarding regional support for innovation, the following should be noted. To date, there has been a distribution offunding for the design and implementation of activities aimed at discussing the innovative development of the territorialcommunity, and the creation and implementation of new innovative inventions and projects. Conclusions and prospects for the development. Implementation of the legislation of Ukraine on development ofinnovations, as well as interaction between local self-government bodies and subjects of the national innovation systemare carried out mainly at the level of financing of individual projects, through tenders and grants. The analysis of KharkivCity Council acts shows that the prospect of innovation development in Kharkiv is high.

Problem setting. The introduction of the model of innovative development of the national economy requires the improvement of the system of state regulation of investment and innovation processes. It is the transformational trends in the national innovation system that necessitates a comprehensive analysis of the main factors that contribute to innovative development. At the same time, the stimulation of innovation orientation of any country’s development should be considered as part of the model of investment development of its economy, provided that this model has priority in innovative development. Target of research is to study the main factors promoting innovation. To achieve this goal, structural, comparative and statistical research methods were used. Analysis of resent researches and publications. Problems of development of the national innovation system and innovation infrastructure, ensuring the development of innovation processes have received considerable coverage in the works of scientists: S. V. Hlibko, O. V. Rozghon, A. M. Liubchych, A. V. Strizhkova and others. Article’s main body. One way to conceptually organize all the factors that determine innovation in a country is to think about the triangle of innovation success: the factors of the business environment along one side of the triangle; trade, tax and regulatory environment – the other party; and the innovation policy environment – along the third party. An effective business environment includes the institutions, activities and opportunities of the country’s business community, as well as broader societal attitudes and practices that promote innovation. An effective trade, tax, and regulatory environment has a competitive and open trade regime that includes strong government efforts to protect its businesses from foreign mercantilist practices; supporting competitive markets so that new entrants, including those implementing new business models, can thrive; processes that make it easy to open a new business and bring innovation to market; transparency and the rule of law; a reasonable tax burden on business, especially for innovation-based firms and commercial companies. The final stage of the innovation triangle is a complex and powerful system of innovation policy. Although markets and business are key to innovation, without an effective innovation policy, markets will be inefficient. Conclusions and prospects for the development. Effective innovative development of the country is possible only if there is a developed business, trade, tax, regulatory environment and an environment of innovation policy that can guarantee proper support for public investment in innovation infrastructure. At the same time, for Ukraine to be attractive to foreign investors, legislation on attracting investment must be clear, democratic and stable.

On the basis of the system analysis of the implementation in the Concept for the development of the national innovation system, developed and approved by the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine in 2009, it is stated that its efficiency is rather low. It is established that the main reason for this is inconsistent and low effectiveness of state, educational, scientific and innovation policy. It is proved that Ukraine needs today a new systemic innovation development strategy that should combine the efforts of power, business, education, science and become a guarantor of dialogue between them. The place and role of the educational-scientific subsystem in the national strategy of innovation development are outlined and the main problems of higher education and vocational education in the context of the training of innovative-oriented specialists are identified. It is substantiated that domestic education, in particular, higher education, can become the most important indicator of the quality of life in society, react effectively to exponential technologies and promote technological change in the business environment by making five radical steps. Realizing them, Ukrainian society has a chance in the medium term to ensure the  introduction of the latest innovative technologies and to become significantly closer to the level and way of organizing the life of developed countries.

We report evidence that Bitnet adoption facilitated increased research collaboration between US universities. However, not all institutions benefited equally. Using panel data from seven top engineering journals, Bitnet connection records, and institution ranking data, we find that middle-tier universities were the primary beneficiaries; they benefited largely by increasing their collaboration with top-tier schools. Furthermore, we find that the magnitude of this effect is greatest for co-located pairs. Thus, the advent of Bitnet – and likely of subsequent networks – seems to have increased the role of middle-tier universities as producers of new knowledge in the national innovation system.
