The object of metropolitan significance on the street Benesova Brno
Střeštíková, Vendula ; Pospíšil, Zdeněk (referee) ; Boháč, Ivo (advisor)
This paper is focused on proposal object or group objects of metropolitan purpose on the specified ground. Character of this object should fit the other current objects along Ringstrasse. My task is react on the system of parks and urban vegetation which is part of this ringstrasse. I also have to design new ground of urban vegetation which will react on the city needs. New object will be multipurpose science-educational center which reflect the quality of science and research in Brno that is valued like scientific metropolis and the most important center of science over all republic. The most important idea of this draft is give the whole city an object which will be a new dominant of this Ringstrasse. The main effort was create building a multi-purpose utilization like a core of all project. Final design is multi-purpose object of science-educational center which can reflect Brno as scientific metropolis and react of the fact that there are about 90 000 university’s students. The main concept is the beginning of life and it was created as a response to the analyze and research and is the entire design philosophy. This was reflected to the all phases of project and details.

Communication and Presentation of Information at JVTP - Analysis and Solution Proposal
Mlčák, František ; Střížová, Vlasta (advisor) ; Chrobočková, Lenka (referee)
This thesis deals with communication and presentation of information at South Bohemian Science and Technology Park (JVTP). Information is a basic component of communication which is required to satisfy certain quality characteristics. These coupled with communication are characterized in the theoretical part. It is also focused on the communication phase of the project and communication tools. The analytical part is divided into two sections. Environmental analysis reveals potential of innovation environment of South Bohemia and also low awareness of JVTP. Analysis of JVTP focused on its services and operation, determine the strengths and weaknesses of the project, including a lack of communication activities. The output of the analytical part is a comprehensive analysis of the innovation environment, identifying the key topics to communicate and findings media reflection of JVTP, including innovation and research. There are used methods such as analysis of internal documents, electronic resources and survey. Results of the analytical part are compared with the three hypotheses. Acquired knowledge is applied in the third chapter, the proposed solution. Communication tools are effectively divided into three stages of communication. Along with key topics, communication tools and channels are forming a comprehensive framework for effective communication and presentation of information of JVTP.

The Factors of Competiveness of Companies in Engineering Industry
Částková, Barbora ; Potluka, Oto (advisor) ; Říčka, Tomáš (referee)
The thesis is called The Factors of Competiveness of Companies in Engineering Industry. I deal with the current situation in engineering, meaning of innovations in companies, the aspects which stimulate them and on the contrary limit them and the possibilities of various kinds of cooperation. The thesis explains the importance of regular analysis of situation of companies on the market, careful determination and fulfillment of the strategy and the operational effectiveness. According to the used resources the factors of competitiveness were determined. In the practical part I analyzed four companies from the surroundings of Ústí nad Orlicí which produce radiators, fittings, machines for textile industry and buses. From acquired information it is possible to say that these companies are competitive and they focus on innovations. I discussed the factors of competitiveness with the managers of engineering companies and I created the summary of the factors which influence prosperity of the engineering companies.

Czech Scientists Database
Pejšová, Petra ; Hvězdová, Lenka
In our poster we will introduce the idea of creating a database of Czech scientists. The scientific community, professionals, government and the corporate sector need easy access to specific information on scientific personalities and related projects and grants. This demand comes from a member of the Czech Research, Development and Innovation Council with a goal to link research and commercial sectors in the area of human resources and support fast transmission of knowledge into practical fields. The system will facilitate contacts with scientists in specific fields. A scientist’s record should contain information about the institution, his/her current and prior institution affiliations, grants, in which he/she has participated, etc. At the same time, the database will serve institutions and companies to enter demands for specific projects. We prepared the project brief and carried out background research on 32 databases and systems for science and research in 14 European countries and the USA. We sorted the analyzed databases into groups and mapped the domestic and overseas situations, which we will present in detail. In the poster, we would also like to show that this kind of service can be provided by libraries. Libraries can adapt to their new role in research infrastructures. Now libraries can not only engage in collecting and accessing data but may also support the creation of data and their connection. Why was the National Technical Library (NTK) chosen? NTK has the ‘know-how’, professional staff and experience in the development and administration of databases, as well as experience with project management expertise to support knowledge databases. NTK has provided information services at a national level for many years and runs the national ISSN agency, the National Repository of Grey Literature, etc.

Research assessment and institutional financing in Estonia: 20 years of experience
Saluveer, Madis
The Estonian R&D and higher education system have undergone profound changes over the last 20 years. The institutional reforms in 1990s, continuous evaluation of R&D activities at various levels, focus on high-quality research, and recent investments into the development of R&D infrastructure have increased the competitiveness of Estonian research and researchers internationally. The presentation will tackle the issues of types, scope and frequency of research evaluations in Estonia, use of “metrics” in research assessment as well as the impact of evaluation outcomes upon the research funding system.

How to proceed in evaluating and financing science: International Audit recommendations
Moravcová, Jitka
British company Technopolis Group and their partners performed between 2010 and 2011 a deep and complex analysis of the Research, Development and Innovation System in the Czech Republic. The outputs of this analysis are exceptional documents drawn by an internationally recognized authority with extensive experience in the field of management, evaluation and financing of research and development that give us for the first time an independent view of our system. The audit results are a very good starting point for the update of strategic documents such as Research, Development and Innovation System Reform or Research, Development and Innovation National Policy that should lead to the visible improvement of the RDI system effectiveness and contribute to the improved competitiveness of the Czech Republic. All the documents are accessible to general public on the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports web sites http://audit-vav.reformy-msmt.cz/. The paper will inform about the most important recommendations concerning RDI management, financing and evaluation on all levels.

Measuring Health in Research and Innovation Systems: The Czech Research Audit in International Context
Arnold, Erik
National Research and Innovation Systems are complex and their health is difficult to measure. A growing number of countries have tried to review and diagnose their own systems through approaches such as the OECD Innovation Policy Reviews, 'Policy Mix' peer reviews at EU level, large national studies or evaluations of major actors such as research councils. This presentation will set out some of the key findings of the recent Czech Research Audit in an international context and reflect on the needed mix of qualitative and quantitative analysis.
