Knowledge spill-over effects (KSE) are based on the fact that subjects obtain benefits from the knowledge generated by other entities (e.g. other enterprises or public institutions) without spending money. They take the form of cooperation between researchers, scientific staff mobility, informal exchanges of ideas, publication of unwanted information, etc. KSEs are increasingly regarded as important levels of economic policy (that´s why municipalities support the spill-over effects from public budgets as state aid), there have been very few attempts so far to investigate the impact and efficiency of knowledge on local- and region-level economic development. Therefore, the key role of KSE and knowledge networks in contemporary regional and local development requires the design of new approaches to their mapping and analysing. The objective of the project is to design such models (analytical tools) of KSE at regional and local levels, which will model complex relations among regional and local actors by using methods of soft-computing and systems theory.

Project is focused on the study of catalytic activity isomorphously substituted [Fe]-zeolites of following types: MFI, MEL, IFR in the direct ammoxidation of propane. Their catalytic activity together with their physico-chemical properties will be studied in the function of the conditions and type of pretreatment (calcination, steaming in the water vapor, nitridation and reductive nitridation), structure of the material
and concentration of iron. Special attention will be devoted to the process of the nitridation of Fe-zeolites, to the mechanism of this process and the impact of the conditions of the nitridation on the catalytic properties of the material. Project should help to understand the in uence of the changes in the acid-base and redox properties of the material and its activity in the ammoxidation of propane and also to identify the structure of the active centers of the catalyst. Results from this research could help to dene the new active and
selective catalytic system for the direct ammoxidation of propane.

The aim of the project is to create a Competency Model for education and performance of a general nurse and certified methodologists
to determine the needs for staffing of general nurses for providing health care in the context of demographic changes in the Czech
Republic and suggestions for optimal number of students to be accepted in the upcoming years to the general nurse qualification
(university and higher education). The intention of the investigators is to analyze and optimize competencies, and to train general
nurses. The project will therefore be carried out in two areas, namely in the field of competency analysis and in the determination and
prediction of the required number of nurses. Both outputs will be achieved during the year 2020.

The aim of the project is to improve the position of Czech industry through product innovation and industrial applications using new technologies and new materials, specifically the new waterborne biocide binders utilizing keto-hydrazide post-crosslinking and paints based on ecological biocides. Achievements of the project will contribute to the introduction of advanced environmentally friendly products, enhancing export potential and competitiveness of the paint industry. Implementation of the new products will be achieved through joint activities in production and research areas.
Interior paints limit the growth of bacteria and fungi, biofilm formation and improve sanitary conditions in hospitals, schools, etc. Facade paints ensure long-term protection against biological degradation.

Remote and rural regions worldwide suffer from decreasing economy, unemployment and migration. The ERDI course seeks solutions to these problems and regional development keeping different development strategies is its very core. ERDI combines the knowledge alliances in regions at hand in a meaningful way empowering the excellence and co-creation of knowledge. ERDI aims at fostering students? multidisciplinary and international knowledge and skills. Thus it enhances better employability, sustainable but competitive regional economy and innovations. ERDI course works through a multidisciplinary, intra-European and transnational network of educational institutions, enterprises and administrators.

Chemosensoric perception (taste and smell) in unjustly neglect issue in medical public. Nowadays Czech ENT clinics are depend on subjective evaluation methods. There is need for objective methods (not only in Czech Republic). A deterioration of alfactory and gustatory function can be one of the first symptoms of serious illnesses ? e.g. tumors, neurodegenerative diseases (Alzheimer disease, Parkinson disease) and psychiatric diagnosis (schizophrenia). Nowadays Czech ENT clinics are depend on subjective evaluation methods. There is need for objective methods (not only in Czech Republic). The target equipment enables objective olfaktometry based on measuring of inhaled and exhaled air flow in patient who is exposed to pleasant and unpleasant odorants. The use of this device is non-invasive for the patient and easy and inexpensive for user.

The project is focused on the innovation and quality improvement of the course Technology and management of the postal operation in the MEKPS field of study and the course Logistics I in the DMML field of study, in which students will have the opportunity to learn about the practical application and technical solution of selected system for the management, collection and evaluation of obtained data. The prerequisites for the construction of the system include purchase of the mobile RFID reader and necessary accessories. Its advantage is mobility during data acquisition, as well as the possibility of their autonomous evaluation, or networking with other systems that are used for data analysis. The innovation will contribute to the increase of professional level of students who will take part in this subject, especially in terms of increased knowledge related to technological solutions of systems for management of postal operation and the method of data processing using mobile devices.

The project is focused on innovation and improvement of the subject Mechanization and automation of postal services, under which students will have the opportunity to meet with the practical application of a particular technical solution of chosen technology of automatic identification. The emphasis will be placed on increasing of the level of expertise in the field, especially in terms of technical and technological solutions, basic physical principles of operation and the possibility of real use in the postal service.
