“…Despite the continuing debate concerning the protection of intellectual property rights (see for example widespread protests against ACTA; also Granstrand, 1999;Branstetter et al, 2006), it can be assumed that the growth of the Internet should lead to the wider dissemination of Open Innovation model. Interestingly, transnational corporations (especially those associated with high-tech and IT sectors), which are widely recognized as interested in preserving at all costs the status quo in order to protect their eroding technology monopoly (Carr, 2004), were the first to see and use the potential of this method of knowledge management (Chesbrough, 2006, p.63;Bingham and Spradlin, 2011, p.117). In this context, data on the Polish economy and the development of a digital society in Poland are decidedly negative, confirming the fact that in this respect the country's standing is one of the last in the European Union.…”

“…A large percentage of companies do not have their corporate website, not to mention their own Internet community assisting in the development of their products. However, this should gradually improve along with the modernization of the ICT infrastructure (particularly the spread of the mobile technology, both among consumers and businesses perceiving them as the opportunity to develop their own business models), the inflow of foreign direct investment stimulating the development of the domestic economic environment, and as a result of consistent implementation of policies supporting innovation in the common European market (Dachs et al, 2008;Lembke, 2002). Therefore, for the domestic companies to become more competitive in international markets, and for the Polish economy to be more innovative, companies must become more involved in their R&D as well as actively participate in international projects (or strategic alliances).…”

Development of information and telecommunication technologies (ICT) and growing popularity of the Internet as communication medium were the most important incentives having influenced the global knowledge-based economy for at least two decades. Although the ICT infrastructure development degree is still often considered as an information society measure, it seems that nowadays, when so many people has broadband and mobile access to the Web, more appropriate ones are those reflecting ICT skills and efficient Internet usage qualifications. One of the new concepts is "open innovation", which in a wider sense could be understood as an exemplification of networked knowledge and innovation exchange method possible thanks to the contemporary Internet revolution. The main purpose of this paper is to evaluate the general concept of open innovation environment, which could be created in Poland to facilitate and foster a scientific and innovation-oriented cooperation among different stakeholders, like companies (especially SMEs), universities, public institutions and the mass of individual Internet users. To achieve this goal, the latter part of the paper is dedicated to the electronic survey results analysis and discussion. This survey has been conducted via social media and other electronic communication channels in course of author's research concerning new models of knowledge diffusion and technology transfer in electronic networks, especially on the Web.

“…The design is slightly different than the Ornellas design in that the jacket consists of two parts: (1) an inner jacket in direct contact with the calorimeter bucket, and (2) an outer jacket maintained at constant temperature. In 2005, Parr Instruments designed and constructed a detonation calorimeter for Nammo Talley, Inc. [9]. Several works using this calorimeter have been published since that time [10][11][12][13][14].…”

“…There is a rich body of literature fully detailing sources of error in calorimetry experiments [16][17][18][19] and many of them are directly applicable to the detonation calorimeter. Currently, however, there exists no detonating standard and the accepted practice in detonation calorimetry is to instead perform calibration by combusting (not detonating) a commercial standard, such as benzoic acid [2,4,6,7,9,18]. This calibration is -by necessity-different from the detonation experiment: the initiating element, the "crucible", the atmosphere (e. g., oxygen environment vs. vacuum), and the rate of heat release within the bomb interior are all different in the calibration relative to the experiment.…”

A calorimeter for measuring heats of detonation at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory is described. A calibration precision of 0.2 % at the 95 % confidence interval (CI) is reported. Sources of uncertainty are discussed, including nonequivalent sources, which are those arising from differences between calibration and experimental tests. The systematic error due to nonequivalent sources is bounded to 0.19–0.22 % of the measured heat for a standard detonation test where the confinement material is gold. The recommendation is to correct for the systematic error by adding 0.19 % to the reported value and adding 0.03 % to the uncertainty. It is demonstrated that the precision of a detonation test is variable with testing duration because a source of uncertainty resides in the thermodynamic correction factor k6, which accounts for the contribution to heat by stirring; the generated power is additive and therefore highly impacted by total test time. The relative proportion also varies with the magnitude of heat release and sample size, adding variance to the weight of the error arising from the correction factor. A full error analysis based on the described sources of uncertainty is developed. The methodology is applied to a test series on neat 2,4,6‐triamino‐1,3,5‐ trinitrobenzene (TATB), demonstrating an ultimate precision of 0.7 % (single test) for materials testing and a relative standard deviation of 1.8 %.

Technology-Based Changes of International Division of Labor in Recent Decades (Analysis Based on Selected Economies)

One of the undeniable feature of the contemporary international division of labor is increasing importance of ITC technologies and social capital, which allow the economy to be more competitive due to arising many connections to the global information networks. Based on conducted research it seems that a straightforward distinction between most developed, post-industrial economies and other economies on different, but lower stages of development, is simply obsolete. First and foremost, some developing countries are gaining on importance in international trade of high-tech products and knowledgeintensive business services (China and India are the most evident examples). On the other hand, these countries have become more and more effective competitors to developed countries in so called creative industries. This is partly caused by foreign direct investments flowed in especially during two past decades, but also is a consequence of social and educational policy leading to development of networked human capital, a substantial asset in the modern global economy. In a way such progress of developing countries under scrutiny in this article should be considered as an indication for Eastern European countries, such Poland and Ukraine, which are technologically backward on course for knowledge-based economy creation.
