Klobása, Jiří ; Černocký, Jan (referee) ; Zemčík, Pavel (advisor)
This thesis deals with the design and implementation of system for recording and repeating of events for audio systems. The introductory part is devoted to the study of sound systems, their user interfaces and communication protocols that are used by audio systems. Hereafter the description of essential features of Mac OS X, as well as the characteristic of its user interface and principles of development on this platform, are given. The core of the thesis consists of the design of system for recording and repeating of events and the concept of events which specifies the reprezentation of events in the system and their subsequent processing. In~the end of the thesis is presented the implementation of the designed system for Mac OS X with respect to possible extensions of the system and its features.

The issue of teaching sets of points with given properties at elementary school
HARAZIMOVÁ, Tereza
The aim of this diploma thesis is to describe various methods for examining loci of points of given properties. I have chosen both the classical approach and new technologies such as dynamic geometry software GeoGebra or a programme from CAS (Computer Algebra System). The topic loci of points of given properties is often very difficult for pupils to understand, therefore it is important to look at it from various points of view, to choose interesting application tasks and thus motivate learners in their studies. In this paper I present several suggestions for more attractive and amusing ways of teaching this issue at primary, secondary and university level of education.

Objective-C programming language and suitability of language inclusion in education
Demčák, Marek ; Pecinovský, Rudolf (advisor) ; Pavlíčková, Jarmila (referee)
This thesis describes a programming language Objective-C, which is the primary programming language for Mac OS X, and assesses the suitability of language inclusion in education. The aim of the first part is to provide the reader with a basic explanation of the language syntax so as to be able to understand what is written for code. After reading this thesis, the reader should have enough information to decide whether he would enjoy programming in Objective-C or not. Thesis does not aim to teach the reader in Objective-C language to create custom applications, mainly due to very limited description of the class libraries (Cocoa, Cocoa Touch), whose knowledge is essential for building real applications. However, this thesis should be a good starting point for all people interested in Objective-C and should refer them to appropriate literature. In the second part, I assess the suitability of language inclusion in education from 10 points of view (criteria). The aim of this part is to provide enough arguments for a decision, whether it is the good idea to provide tuition of Objective-C language or not. Some of the points of view are: basic confrontation of Objective-C with other programming languages (mainly Java and C#), assessing compliance of Objective-C language with the principles of object-oriented programming, review of Xcode IDE, analysis of demand for Objective-C programmers in the Czech Republic and analysis of students' interest in learning Objective-C by online (only students at University of Economics, Prague). The conclusion summarizes the most important properties of the language, its greatest benefits and drawbacks. I have also described the profile of a "typical" programmer in Objective-C, based on evaluated criteria.
