Effects of quality of life in regions on crime rates
Líbal, Miroslav ; Cejp, Martin (advisor) ; Kopečný, Ondřej (referee)
The present thesis "Effects of Quality of Life in Regions on Crime Rates" utilizes objective measures acquired from "Scitani lidu, domu a bytu" census from year 2011 and is aimed at finding the connections between registered crime rates and social factors considered as a part of life conditions within the framework of mesostructural approach on microregional level. With reference to the Chicago school theory, Émile Durkheim and Mary Douglas' Cultural Theory it regards the Czech society and comes to the conclusion that the causes of criminality lie mainly in the individual's social milieu being locally disorganized. The social relations within this milieu are rooted in the instability of the family. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

Chválová, Martina ; Rychtaříková, Jitka (advisor) ; Šustová, Šárka (referee)
DETERMINANTS OF POVERTY IN THE CZECH REPUBLIC Abstract In this thesis we present the determinants and the current state of poverty in the Czech Republic in 2014.

We also introduce various ways to measure poverty. A substantial part of the theoretical section focuses on the introduced methods and definitions of particular indicators (the at risk of poverty rate, the relative median at risk of poverty gap, the Gini coefficient, the income quintile share ratio, the material deprivation rate). We have used the method of logistic regression and the processed data which were gained from the project Životní podmínky 2014 (The Living Conditions 2014) and EU-SILC 2014. At the same time, still in the theoretical part of the thesis, we also dealt with the causes of poverty and the attitudes towards the poor as sociology, psychology and ethics view them. The analysis has proved that, based on equivalised household income, persons living in households in villages with 2 000-4 999 inhabitants are susceptible to poverty...

Terminal for remote visualization and control conditions in the house
Szalay, Patrik ; Macho, Tomáš (referee) ; Petyovský, Petr (advisor)
This diploma thesis deals with the modification of an existing device for controlling the heating system of the house. The original proposal builds on my bachelor thesis Terminal for visualization and control conditions in a house. Adjustments are based on the findings of the test operation and the deficiencies found in everyday operations. Here, the emphasis is on simple design, low acquisition cost and durability of the resulting device. Newly designed wireless units will replace the original wired sensors, as well as the control unit of the existing device based on the prototype system will be replaced with a new wireless central unit. The alphanumeric display with control buttons will remain as the control panel of this unit. The wireless central unit is connected via a serial communication interface to the visualization and control unit, which extends the offered options of the heating control system.
