Language management of selected phenomena in Common Czech
Benešová, Martina ; Nekvapil, Jiří (advisor) ; Havlík, Martin (referee)
(in English) Language management of selected phenomena in Common Czech The purpose of this bachelor thesis is to find out, whether the phenomena of Common Czech are being influenced by language management, when it happens and to which extent. To a major extent, the work is of an empirical character. The major theoretical and methodological sources are the book by James Wilson Moravians in Prague and article by Jiří Neustupný Sociolingvistika a jazykový management. The major objective of the work is to link the methodology with the theoretical findings in the areas of language management and variation sociolinguistics. The book by Wilson will serve as a source of information for the sociolinguistic part. For the analysis, I have selected the same linguistic phenomena as Wilson did, in particular the following ones: A) phonological ones: 1) V-insertion; 2) É-raising; 3) Ý-diphtongization and B) grammatical ones: 4) paradigm unification (by third, fourth and fifth verb class); 5) L-truncation (by first and second verb class); 6) gender neutralisation. These selected phenomena will be studied based on the language used by the lecturers during their lectures of non-linguistic subjects of study at the Faculty of Philosophy of the Charles University in Prague (FF UK). The following methodological approach...

Sequential and Prosodic Aspects of Conversation
Havlík, Martin ; Nekvapil, Jiří (advisor) ; Volín, Jan (referee) ; Zeman, Jiří (referee)
This study deals with two phenomena which are closely related to the turn-taking mechanism in conversation. These are: overlapping talk and the use of prosody in turn-taking. Prosody is linked to the formation of the transition relevance place. I point out the aspects of conversation, including prosody, which shape the transition relevance place, and also how prosody is used in the projection of turn-yielding, or turn-holding. I devote attention to three basic aspects of prosody: pitch movement, intensity movement and articulation rate. Furthermore, I analyze how overlapping turns are produced, how they proceed and how they are resolved. The characteristics of overlapping talk are influenced by the types of conversation in which they occur: while in mundane, informal conversation they can last only briefly, usually produced as a means of mutual understanding, in political debates they are often prolonged, as they are associated with the efforts of speakers to take and hold the floor.

Investigating the Pronunciation of Loanwords
Štěpánová, Veronika ; Duběda, T. ; Havlík, Martin ; Jílková, Lucie
Our analysis of Czech loanword phonology under the project “Pronunciation of non-integrated lexical items” is based on a theoretical framework which includes eight adaptation principles (phonological approximation; spelling pronunciation; original pronunciation; analogy with the donor language; analogy with the recipient language; influence of a third language; influence of universals; unclearly motivated pronunciation). A large-scale empirical survey of pronunciation practice, which is a part of this project, offers a realistic view of loanword phonology in Czech, with respect to both its current state and its dynamics. The data obtained provide socially stratified insights into problems such as the variation of vowel length, that of consonant voicing, the pronunciation of proper names, and the influence of spelling. The database of recorded variants may serve as a resource for lexicographic work.

A Water Management Analysis of the Hanušovice Reservoir
Havlík, Martin ; Menšík, Pavel (referee) ; Marton, Daniel (advisor)
Theme of the work is a water management analysis of the Hanušovice reservoir on the river Morava/Krupá. In the framework will be make to calculating of the thinking reservoir, which in Generel locals for accumulation surface waters LAPV is conduction as perspective water-supply reservoir for north and central Pomoraví. Software will be used, which calculating analysis reservoir enable carry out. Target of the work is analysis variable reservoir, which is conduction on actually hydrologic conditions in river basin a actual lay requisition national company Povodí Moravy.

Ant Colony Optimization: Implementace a testování biologicky inspirované optimalizační metody
Havlík, Michal
Havlík, M. Ant Colony Optimization: Implementation and testing of bio-inspired optimization method. Diploma thesis. Brno, 2015. This thesis deals with the implementation and testing of algorithm Ant Colony Optimization as a representative of the family of bio-inspired opti-mization methods. A given algorithm is described, analyzed and subsequently put into context with the problems which can be solved. Based on the collec-ted information is designed implementation that solves the Traveling sale-sman problem. Implementation contains graphical user interface to track the algorithm. Implementation is further optimized using parallel programming and other methods. Finally the implementation compared and summarized results.

Loanwords and Foreign Proper Names in Czech: a Phonologist’s View
Duběda, T. ; Havlík, Martin ; Jílková, Lucie ; Štěpánová, Veronika
The objective of the present paper is to analyze phonological aspects of orthographically non-adapted loanwords and foreign proper names on a non-normative basis. A system of eight adaptation principles is put forward (1. phonological approximation; 2. spelling pronunciation; 3. original pronunciation; 4. analogy with the donor language; 5. analogy with the recipient language; 6. the influence of a third language; 7. the influence of universals; 8. unclearly motivated pronunciation). This system is then applied to a sample of Anglicisms taken from a recently published dictionary. We show that the most important principles are phonological approximation and, to a lesser degree, spelling pronunciation. The “secondary” principles (4–8) affect only a small number of items. Differences between British and American pronunciation are unproblematic for the system.
