Dr. Yoshio Matsuki –
External cost as an indicator for sustainable electricity generation system.
This research applies the Impact Pathway Approach for identifying the external cost for the fossil-fuel electricity production in Ukraine. Using the SimPact Computer Code and the “Willingness to Pay” survey, the external costs of the electricity production was calculated, which are the monetary values of the morbidity and mortality of population caused by the air pollutants emitted from an electricity generation plant using an example of Triypilska Electric Power Generation Plant in Ukrainka town. Based on the research results, recommendations were made to include the external costs into the price of electricity in Ukraine, which is generated by the fossil fuel combustion.

Perspectives of NTUU KPI participation in the international projects and programs (FP7, Tempus, Erasmus Mundus etc.).
The report will contain a brief description of the most important international research and educational programs, analysis of the current situation with regard to NTUU “KPI” participation in international projects and programs. It will also suggest measures on activization of NTUU “KPI” participation in international projects and programs, and consider the call proposals submission algorithm.

Organization of Intelligent Agents' Interatcion in the World Data System.
This research deals with ontology based knowledge representation and its use in multi agent systems. Current research presents agent architecture, which uses ontology based knowledge model and software library designed and developed for building of intelligent agents with ontology knowledge model with possibility to plug agents to existing World Data System services.

Global modelling of sustainable development processes using the resource-energetic approach (part 2).
This research presents resource-energetic approach to modelling of sustainable development. It is based on the model of extending spaces. Main postulates were specified and discussed. It presents approaches for numerical estimation of model parameters.

Methodology of scenario construction of Ukraine developement based on the morphological and SWOT analysis.
This research presents the method of constructing scenarios for development of countries, regions, cities. The method based on using sustainable development data and such tools us SWOT-analysis, expert methods and morphological analysis. As example of proposed method using will be presented scenarios which were constructed for Ukraine's development.

Civilization approach to modelling of main world cultures' breaklines.
Research was focused on development of a methodology of world geopolitics research with the use of contemporary geopolitical paradigms based on the work of expert groups in definition of the examined objects, development the set of evaluation criteria, and quantative estimation of the cultural differences of different objects. Current research was based on hypothesis of S. Hantington about the “clash of civilizations”.

Global modelling of interactions between social objects of different levels.
This research presents an approach to global modeling which based on sustainable development concept. It uses representation of countries in the form of objects with interface for economic, ecological and social signals exchanging between each other that allow to provide real-time computations with hundreds of complex models and thousands interconnections between them. Simulation allows predicting the influence of some important changes in one country or region to other part of world, research of the threats with potential catastrophic consequences, finding the best ways for world development.
