Influence of investment and direct innovative costs on optimal development strategies of a region

Currently it is difficult to estimate from available statistics innovative processes in the region in terms of “expenditures-results”, which impedes strategic planning of development. The paper proposes a kind of regulatory approach to this problem with the use the conceptual model of the region, that is to determine the limit values of most important innovative parameters by properly oriented computational experiments with this model. It is clearly demonstrated on an aggregated version of the model.
