Abstract: Based on the analysis of a vast massif of multi-lingual scientific literature in the broad context, the author examines development of the perception of the phenomenon of digital transformation of society as a whole and science in particular. Since digital transformation takes place “here and now”, objectively leading the process of scientific cognition in its essence and results, any current results of comprehension of this scale of multi-level process objectively carry private, intermediary character. However, clarification of the content of this concept and formation of analytical constructs that would unambiguously describe the specificity of the new social reality are necessary for the theory and management practice. It is noted that academic concept of digital transformation of science did not completely form and is dynamically changing in accord with the development of reality. Analysis of the scope of ideas pertaining to digital transformation and various accompanying concepts allows formulating perceptions on the essence of this phenomenon in the sphere of science. This work demonstrates the dual character of the impact of digitalization upon the scientific sphere and functionality of knowledge.

Abstract: Based on the analysis of statistical data, the author assesses the status, performance and dynamics of the main indicators of the potential of Russian science in the period, carried out in recent years in order to reform it. The feasibility of this analysis stems from the fact that science at the present stage is transformed into the main driving force of socioeconomic development of any country. In this regard, it is important to not only have a scientifically based theory of controlling this process, but also systematically analyze the actual state of the construction of scientific-innovative economy in order to develop and adopt the necessary measures for its improvement and efficiency. The necessary scientific base - innovation represents the potential of science. The study analyzes the actual state and trends in development of science capacity throughout the period 2005-2015, as well as its impact on the productivity of scientific innovation. The author formulated relevant assessments and suggestions.

Keywords: the effectiveness of research, costs of research, logistical capacity of science, human resources potential of science, research organizations, public sector, applied research, basic science, scientific activity, capacity of science
