Differences between the Russian regions by the level of development of innovation activity make urgent the task of their typization. Special attention should be paid to dynamics of innovation activity, because only this permits to judge about sustainability of innovation processes in regional economy and their tendencies.In the present work,the statistical data are used for the purposes of the typization of the Russian regions by dynamics of innovation activity in 2010–2014. Five types of the regions by their long-term success and four types by appearance of tendencies of innovation development are established.In Russia, there are many regions demonstrating long-term success, although those characterized by permanent increase in innovation activity are few. Geographically close location of the regions with different dynamics of innovation activity is considered as a significant premise for solution of the problems detected by the attempted analysis. Practical importance of the results is determined by the fact the typization of regions by dynamics of innovation activity is urgent for state governance of innovation activity and, particularly, development of programs aimed at building of innovation-oriented regional economy. Additionally, the typization allows evaluation of premises for realization of ambitious projects such as foundation of regional financial centers and clusters.

The problems of the deficit of investment potential of Russian economy are analyzed, although the assets of the bank sector of Russian economy alone amount to more than 80 trillion roubles. It is quite sufficient for service of the 2016 Russian real gross domestic product in the amount of 42 trillion roubles. However, the actually produced gross domestic product is serviced by М2 money supply, which amounted to 7,723 trillion roubles and is clearly insufficient. Considering that economy is in critical need for investment, the stated stock of money is extremely low. Emission of currency is the only solution. However, Central Bank raises absolute objections because of the accelerating inflation danger. Central Bank pursues the policy of dear money, by setting the highest key rate in the world at 17 % in 2014 and reducing it to 10,5 % in 2016. And all of that happened under conditions of the economic crisis. Such a key rate is manifested in the cred-it rate of 25–30 % for entrepreneurs, which slows down the growth. At the same time, the monetization factor of the Russian gross domestic product is 0,47. Meanwhile, the monetization factor in all OECD countries and other developed countries is above 1,0. It is also well known from the world business practices that no country in the world has ever made economic spurt with monetization factor of gross domestic product below 1,0.

The author is trying to find all possible relations between the stated problems and define optimal level of monetization of the gross domestic product for Russia.

Moreover, we propose a classification, which allowed to determine the main periods in development of investment decisions in the context of investor behavior: quasi-rational, rational and boundedly rational.

In this paper, we present a computer appliance, which is intended for remote control and monitoring of multimedia projectors. The computer appliance is developed and embedded in Novosibirsk State University of Economics and Management and provides easy and unified access for different multimedia projectors with an infrared receiver. The developed computer appliance allows potential extension in order to control other devices with an infrared receiver (e.g. air conditionings, plasma display panels, DVD-players etc.). The main part of the computer appliance is an Arduino microcontroller with an infrared transmitter, an infrared receiver and a RFID-reader for users’ authentication via demonstration an electronic pass. The microcontroller is connected with the personal computer, which, in its turn, is connected with the multimedia projector. Also, we developed special software for this computer, for the microcontroller, as well as for the server, which is intended for centralized control of all the available projectors.
