The Serbian Radical Party in the 1st stage of development of so called 5th October republic: the path of the Radical Party from the Milošević regime fall to winning 2003 general elections
Pashkevich, Mikhail ; Pelikán, Jan (advisor) ; Moskovič, Boris (referee)
The diploma thesis will analyse the activities of the Radical Party of Serbia (SRS) in the period following the fall of Slobodan Milosević on October 5, 2000 as a result of mass protests till the parliamentary elections in 2003, when the party won the most seats in the Serbian parliament. The victory of the SRS did not become an isolated incident, but, as it turned out later, represented the beginning of a new trend in Serbian politics: the consolidation, reformatting and return of nationalist forces, which later adopted pro-European rhetoric. The aim of the thesis is, first of all, to determine the reasons and premises of the return, secondly to describe the communication strategy of the SRS in the years 2000-2003, which allowed the party to elaborate an effective electoral message under severely unfavourable conditions. To achieve these aims, the following questions will be examined in particular: 1. Whether the renaissance of the Serbian Radical Party's influence does not reflect the fact that the fall of Milosević's administration did not mean a major turning point in Serbia's political development 2. How broad was the support of the nationalist program in Serbian society during the rule of Milosević and after his fall. 3. To what extent was the SRS ready to take on the role of leader of the...

Interpretation of Key Issues of National History in the Works of the Main Representatives of the Albanian National Movement
Křepinský, Matěj ; Pelikán, Jan (advisor) ; Vinš, Přemysl (referee)
The thesis focuses on the shaping of the national history of Albanians during the Albanian national movement. The time frame of the study is epoch between 1854 when Johann Georg von Hahn published Albanian Studies, and 1912 remarking proclamation of Albanian independence. The main goal of the paper is to introduce the structure of Albanian historical narrative in its romantic phase. For this purpose, the content analysis of works of seven main representatives of the national movement was used. Selected authors include: Jeronim de Rada, Pashko Vasa, Thimi Mitko, Spiro Risto Dine, Sami Frashëri, Naim Frashëri, Jani Vreto. The thesis explains the timeline of historical narrative and the perspective on the role of religion and religious communities. The study also covers creating the pantheon of national heroes and perception of neighbouring nations. The construct of the historical narrative is described in the context of beginnings of European scientific research about Albanian history. A reader will also get familiar with elementary ideological development of the Albanian national movement on the background of pivotal historical moments. The attachment of the thesis represents short biographies of selected authors.

History as an argument. Disputes about interpretation of the past in Montenegrin political debate during the Independence Referendum, 2006.
Pashkevich, Mikhail ; Vojtěchovský, Ondřej (advisor) ; Pelikán, Jan (referee)
This thesis deals with using history as a tool of political marketing and communication in the campaign before Montenegrin independence referendum in 2006. Namely, it is referring to usage of historical past topics in discussions and agitation of antagonistic blocs: "For European Montenegro", which was promoting independence, and "For maintaining the state union of Serbia and Montenegro", calling to retain state union with Serbia respectively. The subject of research is the interpretation of Montenegrin history's key persons and events, to which both of blocs resorted for backing their arguments: Petr II. Petroviće Njegoše, the King Nikola I., the annexation of Montenegro to Serbia in 1918, conflict of partisans and Chetniks during WWII, evaluation of socialists Yugoslavia, the role and responsibility of Montenegro in wars following the breakup of Yugoslavia, evaluation of Slobodan Milošević's policy, interethnic relations in Montenegro in the 19th and the 20th centuries. Particular focus of this thesis is given to impact of tribal and family memory, ancestors legacy on adopting a stance towards idea of independence and understanding of Montenegrin identity.

Vehicle Routing Problem with Private and Common Carriers
Zikmund, Adam ; Pelikán, Jan (advisor) ; Fábry, Jan (referee)
This diploma thesis deals with a problem from the field of combinatorial optimization called Vehicle Routing Problem with Private and Common Carriers (VRPPC). A complete undirected symmetric graph is given. The task is to satisfy demands in all nodes with minimal total costs. There are two possibilities of doing so. Either private fleet or common carrier can be used for the transport of the demanded goods. The private costs depend on the covered distance whereas the common costs are conditional only on the weight of demand. Several heuristic methods for solving this problem are proposed and tested on three experimental instances of different sizes (in terms of number of nodes). Emphasis is primarily put on comparison between the presented heuristic and the classical optimization approach, which can often lead to inferior results (especially in case of larger instances) because of the computational complexity of the given problem.

Optimization of a a route for collecting waste with Traveling Salesman Problem
Trnka, Zdeněk ; Borovička, Adam (advisor) ; Pelikán, Jan (referee)
The Bachelor's dissertation deals with optimization of route designed for collecting communal waste of a company FCC Czech Republic, Ltd. Dissertation search for the most suitable method to solve the real-life example. So formed economic model is to be solved via Traveling Salesman Problem method, whose mathematical model, modifications and solutions options are described in detail in theoretical sections of the dissertation. Exact methods, which are suitable for smaller problem, and heuristic methods, which did not have to give optimal solution, can be used for solving the Traveling Salesman Problem. The Traveling Salesman Problem will be solved here with help of modeling software MPL for Windows. There will be also used two heuristic approaches - Nearest Neighbor algorithm and Savings method. Due to increasing efficiency, a modified Traveling Salesman Problem with Time Windows will be used and solved also through MPL for Windows. To close the dissertation, the result will be summarized and compare firstly among each other and secondly against current company route.

Implementation of Heuristics for Vehicle Routing Problem with Time Windows
Trunda, Otakar ; Pelikán, Jan (advisor) ; Holý, Vladimír (referee)
Vehicle Routing Problem with Time Windows is a hard optimization problem. Even though it has numerous practical applications, the question of solving it efficiently has not been satisfyingly solved yet. This thesis studies the Vehicle Routing Problem with Time Windows and presents several new algorithms for solving it. There are two heuristics presented here, as well as several more complex algorithms which use those heuristics as their components. The efficiency of presented techniques is evaluated experimentally using a set of test samples. As a part of this thesis, I have also developed a desktop application which implements presented algorithms and provides a few additional features useful for solving routing prob-lems in practice. Among others, there is a generator of pseudo-random problem instances and several visualization methods.
