Evaluation of the Effectiveness of Health Care Facilities
Korbelová, Kristýna ; Váchová, Lucie (advisor) ; Zelená, Veronika (referee)
The aim of the thesis is to map out the possibilities of measuring the effectiveness of health care facilities and a practical example of the one found methods to use. In the introduction there are explained the terms efficiency and effectiveness. The next section describes the specifics of health care facilities in terms of their performance and the economy. Options of measuring efficiency in health care are identified mainly through literature. Detailed view of a practical part is dedicated to the modern method of measuring the effectiveness the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). In the practical part using the chosen tools is evaluated the effectiveness of a sample of hospitals. The conclusion summarizes the possibilities of measuring the effectiveness and assesses the benefits of using DEA.

Determinants of profitability in banking sector
Mrázek, Martin ; Rod, Aleš (advisor) ; Chytilová, Helena (referee)
This thesis analyzes devolopment of profitabilty and market structure of banking sector in the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Poland and Hungary. Empirical results are consistent with structure-conduct-performance hypothesis, on the other hand efficiency hypothesis seems to be unlikely. These conclusions are furthermore supported by DEA efficiency analysis. Results of non-structural Panzer-Rosse model suggest that during the period under consideration, market outcome was similar to monopolistic competiton. The results of regression analysis reveal that bank-specific variables, share of banking deposits on GDP, GDP growth and interest rates are the main drivers of banking sector profitability.

Efficiency and performance analysis of higher education
Krňávek, Jiří ; Jablonský, Josef (advisor) ; Dlouhý, Martin (referee)
This thesis focuses on the efficiency and performance analysis of higher education in the Czech Republic. The theoretical part deals with interpretation of methods, which are then used in the practical part. These methods are data envelopment analysis (DEA) and methods of multi-criteria evaluation with cardinal information on criteria. Another important chapter of the theoretical part is the chapter about the most famous world rankings of universities and practice in this field in the Czech Republic. The practical part is divided into two sections. The first deals with the analysis of the efficiency of economic faculties on public universities in the Czech Republic from 2011 to 2013. The second one is aimed at the creation of a ranking of these faculties for 2015 using the methods of multi-criteria evaluation.

Efficiency of inpatient facilities in the Czech Republic
Gajdošová, Eva ; Maaytová, Alena (advisor) ; Mikušová, Pavla (referee)
The thesis deals with efficiency of inpatient facilities in the Czech Republic in the period 2008 to 2013. The first chapter describes the importance of inpatient facilities in the health care system and methods of evaluation of efficiency with focus on the method of DEA. Additionally it defines the necessary concepts for other parts of the work. The content of the following chapter is the analysis of the development of inpatient fund according to selected criteria. In the last chapter are first analyzed the determinants which may influence the efficiency of the hospital and the possibilities of their monitoring in the Czech Republic. This is followed by a key part of the thesis - analysis of technical and cost efficiency of hospitals, on the basis of which conclusions and recommendations are drawn into practice.

Multicriteria analysis of the Human Development Index
Janů, Jakub ; Střížová, Vlasta (advisor) ; Jablonský, Josef (referee)
Diploma thesis describes the problem of quantitative expression of the quality of life. For this purpose is used one of the most widespread indicators of quality of life - Human Development Index. This paper describes its basic characteristics, method of calculation, its advantages and drawbacks. One of the objectives of this paper is the elimination of these shortcomings by alternative method of calculation. The methods of multi-criteria evaluation of alternatives and data envelopment analysis models are applied for these purposes. One part of this paper is a theoretical description of the tasks of multi-criteria decision making and their classification into the methods for multi-criteria evaluation of alternatives and into the methods of multi-criteria linear programming. In this paper are used methods WSA, TOPSIS and PROMETHEE, based on the definition of the theoretical characteristics of the methods of multi-criteria evaluation of alternatives. These methods are applied on the source data, obtained from a model of the human development index. After calculation, the results obtained are analyzed and written into the conclusion. Another alternative approach to obtain the level of human development is to evaluate the degree of efficiency of countries using data envelopment analysis models in comparison with the human development index. For these purposes is written the theoretical background, which defines the basic types of data envelopment analysis models. These theoretical findings serve as the basis for the practical analysis by the BCC output oriented model and by the corresponding model of super efficiency. The results of these calculations are analyzed and subsequently written into the final conclusion.

Comparison of systems for evaluating the efficiency of using DEA models
Murinová, Michaela ; Šindelářová, Irena (advisor) ; Chýna, Vladislav (referee)
Diploma thesis deals with the evaluation of the efficiency using DEA models focusing on the use of dedicated software tools. There are four chapters in the thesis where different approaches to efficiency are briefly presented. The method of data envelopment analysis (DEA) with its modifications is described in detail -- basic models, CCR, BCC and additive model. The main part of the work is presented in the second part of this thesis where I describe how to work with each program and summarize its advantages and disadvantages. The last chapter applies prior knowledge on real situation -- the evaluation of the efficiency of the regional police stations in the Czech Republic.

Measuring the performance of selected banks operating in the Czech Republic
Pohanka, Eduard ; Tuček, Miroslav (advisor) ; Janda, Karel (referee)
The thesis is focused on the practical analysis of the profitability and efficiency of banks operating in the Czech Republic from the perspective of people who do not have inside information on banking operations. The restrictions of obtaining information, assumptions and limitations of the methods used and also the question whether such an analysis makes sense and it is therefore possible to comprehensively compare the bank are also discussed. The paper also discusses the possible views on the definition of bank performance and other methods for its qualification are marginally mentioned.

Methods for ranking efficient units in data envelopment analysis
Gőtz, Ondřej ; Jablonský, Josef (advisor) ; Chrobok, Viktor (referee)
This thesis focuses on the theory of models, data envelopment analysis and subsequent methods in ranking of obtained efficient units. The thesis is divided into three main parts. The first part describes the basic theoretical background of data envelopment analysis for different situations of inputs and outputs. It also contains basic information on specific models of CCR, BCC and SBM, including illustrative examples of their function. In the second part these models are adapted for use in the overall layout of production units which are the models of super efficiency and cross efficiency. Both methods include the description of the basic principles of their functioning. The aim is to compare the results of the various types of ranking using a practical example. This is included in the last part of the thesis. This chapter compares the results obtained using the models mentioned above. Data of the S & L branches were used as the input values for this work.

Multi-Criteria Decision Making in Data Envelopment Analysis
Mec, Martin ; Jablonský, Josef (advisor) ; Kalčevová, Jana (referee)
Data Envelopment Analysis is a multi-criteria decision making tool employing set of minimizing criteria (inputs) and set of maximizing criteria (outputs) for evaluating decision making unit efficiency. This method is accompanied by problems in field of input and output weight assignment, whereas benevolent basic model formulation enables decision making unit evaluation to be based on far unevenly distributed weight vector. Furthermore, data envelopment analysis basic model produces dichotomized dividing in form of efficient and inefficient decision making unit sets. Extensive set of efficient units occurs frequently and this causes difficulties in choosing one or less number efficient units. These phenomena appear often simultaneously. An implementation of multi-criteria decision making models into data envelopment analysis is exercised in order to reduce these undesired effects in applications.

Optimization of the organizational structure
Škaloudová, Hana ; Kalčevová, Jana (advisor) ; Mynařík, Petr (referee)
Optimization of the organizational and enterprices structure is very useful in this time. Restructuring can save money and time. For measuring of effeciency, we can use SWOT analysis, multicriteria analysis and Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). In this bachelor thesis, I use DEA analysis. DEA use inputs and outputs and calculate effeciency of homogeneous units. More outputs and less inputs is better. I apply DEA on the scout movements in Prague. I calculate with mpl effeciency of units. I use real data and I suggest changes.
