Lean Six Sigma for process improvement
Raška, Adam ; Doucek, Petr (advisor) ; Klas, Jan (referee)
Lean Six Sigma is one of the tools organizations use to help their processes run faster and thus maximize their profits. It is a thorough approach that can reveal defects in companies' processes through examining customers' needs and its statistical data Its popularity spreads fast from the early adopters such as General Electric, Toyota or Motorola and many companies are keen to get their hands on it and achieve similar success as above mentioned. Czech companies are not different. There is, however, a tendency to lay it aside based on first time impressions. The most frequent reasons are: complexity, need to make dramatic changes in the company's culture and high initial costs. Main goal of this thesis is to show that Lean Six Sigma does not necessarily have to be a thorough approach. It can also be used as a one-time tool to improve company's processes, just by picking the right parts and combining them in the right order. This thesis describes the most useful tools and also shows how they can be used in the real situation. By aligning them in a row it also creates a framework for Lean Six Sigma implementation projects which can be used repeatedly. One chapter also describes various problems that might occur during the implementation and provides readers with possible solutions to overcome them.

Chlaňová, Alice ; Švestka, Jiří (advisor) ; Salač, Josef (referee)
Alice Chlaňová Odpovědnost za škodu způsobenou vadným výrobkem 64 9. The liability for damage caused by defect of a product In my diploma thesis, I am concerned with one of the tools of policy to protect consumers that I consider as a very important and useful in the times of open market and free movement of goods. The tool discussed is the liability for damage caused by defect of a product, which entered in force on the 1st of June 1998 by the particular law no 59/1998 Coll., as amended by Act no 209/2000 Coll. The principal point of this civil proceedings is to enlarge heavily the present consumer protection formed mainly by the statutory regulation that is stated in the law no 634/1992 Coll., law on consumer protection, then in the law no 22/1997 Coll., law on technical requirements of products and others. I have been trying to conceive the law about the liability for damage caused by the defect of product from all basic viewpoints. It means that I am interested mainly in circumstances that the special regulation was adopted; what caused its mooring in the Czech legislation; consequences for consumers and also for producers. Furthermore, there is a survey of its correspondence with European regulation from which the Czech legislative regulation of liability for damage caused by defect of a product...

Contract analyses, concrete business case
Stepanenko, Karol ; Malý, Josef (advisor) ; Halík, Jaroslav (referee)
At the beginning of the 21st century the international trade gets more important than ever before. The amount of the traded goods rises. There are more and more new small and medium size companies that participate in the international trade but have rather limited experience with it. This brings new threat to the business. It is, therefore, advisable to include one of the thirteen international commercial terms also known as INCOTERMS. These terms are published by the International Chamber of Commerce in Paris. The terms, however, are not a standard part of a contract and therefore if the parties want to use it, they must clearly refer to one in the contract. These 13 terms set rights and obligations for both contract parties. This paper aims to analyze INCOTERMS 2000 and apply the facts on general commercial terms of 1CSC PRECISION TUBES, a.s.

Disambiguation of Czech Morphology Using Markov Models
Dufková, Kateřina ; Podveský, Petr (advisor) ; Vidová Hladká, Barbora (referee)
In my bachelor thesis I decided to focus on disambiguation of Czech morphology. This task is important in particular in the area of natural language translation, where it takes part in preprocessing the text intended for translation in order to eliminate ambiguity in part of speech and other morphological cathegories. This ambiguity would cause problems in subsequent phases of translation or unacceptable growth of translation's time demands. I chose statistical approach to this problem, which is in comparison with other possible methods faster, more universal and able to select word cathegory in all cases. I founded my aplication KDTagger, which I created within the framework of this bachelor thesis, on the theory of Hidden Markov Models. My aim was to create such a program, which would be universal in operating system and the way of use. KDTagger allows the experts to adjust every important linguistic parameter while preserving comfort use for begginers. My work also includes extensive testings of the program KDTagger, which I performed on the Czech newspaper texts from Prague Dependency Treebank version 2.0. The program can be however applied on arbitrary natural language without not even the smallest change. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

Property claims of Germans from Sudetenland within the context of the Lisbon Treaty: Study
Syllová, Jindřiška ; Pejchalová Grünwaldová, Vladimíra
Povinnost členských států dodržovat základní práva upravená v Listině EU může Soud EU posuzovat jen tehdy, pokud členské státy jednají v rámci práva EU. Problematika restitucí a další problematika dekretů prezidenta republiky nespadá do práva EU vymezeného ve zvláštních článcích zakládacích smluv a proto nemohou být dekrety a akty vzniklé jejich aplikací Soudem EU posuzovány. Pokud se jedná o možnost vyloučení použití Listiny EU na posuzování aktů v některém členském státu, není Protokol o uplatňování Listiny základních práv Evropské unie v Polsku a ve Spojeném království skutečným nástrojem, který by tuto možnost přinášel. Odst. 2 protokolu naznačuje, že protokol nepředstavuje žádnou výjimku. Protokol pouze říká, že je přijat, „aby se předešlo jakékoliv pochybnosti“. Protokol pouze potvrzuje, že Listina EU nerozšiřuje působnost soudu EU posuzovat národní předpisy a jiné akty, pokud se tyto netýkají uplatňování práva EU. Z tohoto hlediska pouze potvrzuje pojetí, které bylo vysvětleno výše, tedy to, že soud EU nemá pravomoc posuzovat soulad aktu netýkajícího se práva EU s ustanoveními Listiny EU. I když Česká republika nevyjednala stejnou úpravu protokolu, jako má Velká Británie a Polsko, nic to nemění na rozsahu aplikace ustanovení Listiny EU na naše právo. Tomu odpovídá i Prohlášení České republiky k Listině základních práv EU, které bylo připojeno k závěrečnému aktu Lisabonské konference. Z výše naznačeného je možno uzavřít, že dekrety prezidenta republiky nebo akty vzniklé jejich aplikací splňují náležitosti stanovené v čl. 52 Listiny EU pouze tehdy, pokud by se jimi „uplatňovalo“ právo EU. Pokud tomu tak není (přičemž je nutno brát na zřetel i časové hledisko), není Listina EU použitelná a soud EU proto nemůže dekret nebo akt podle ní posuzovat.

Emergency preparedness of municipalities with authorization of the municipal office Březnice resulting from Crisis Plan MEP Pribram
PINKAVA, František
The thesis analyses municipality with a delegated local authority's preparedness for critical situations which results from the critical scheme of a municipality with extended powers. The results of this work are Crisis Preparedness Plan for the particular municipality which may be applied in practice. Processing of this part of the work is based on data gathering and solving when I mainly used factual and analytical method. Consultation with experts was also important since some sources were not always topical due to frequent legal decrees changes. The data gathering was done in a qualitative way when I worked with particular valid laws, government regulations, public notices and other legal norms and with available literature data, expert publications including website information, especially from official website of individual Integrated Rescue System units and the Home Office. In the research part itself, the city of Březnice is characterized and for which the Crisis Preparedness Plan is being made. General administrative characteristics of the city and municipalities which arise under are stated here as well as demography, infrastructure, geographical and climatic characterization. Important facilities from the point of view of population protection, such as schools, school and social facilities are graphically shown here; followed by characteristics of Integrated Rescue System units in the city together with instruments which are available to them. Another important part of the thesis is the hazard analysis which I had been given by the Czech Republic Fire Brigade from the Crisis Plan of Příbram's Area with Extended Powers and it has become the crucial source while writing this work. The hazard analysis identifies 14 threats which may occur in the Příbram Area. The most important part of this thesis is, in my opinion, the hazard analysis of the city of Březnice. Not all of the hazards may appear in the administrative area of the city Březnice, however, there may occur certain threats in this administrative area which are not underpinned in the Crisis Plan of the Příbram Area. Here I have come to the key findings crisis plans of the areas with extended powers are rather general and insufficient for preparing solutions of critical situations development in administrative areas with a delegated authority. I have come to those findings after having made a SWAT analysis and thanks to this I have discovered threats which were not dealt with in the crisis plan.There are several findings as a result of this thesis and the suggestion of the Plan of Crisis Preparedness of a municipality with delegated authority of Březnice. The first finding answers the research question of "Which are the hazards threatening performance of the tasks of a municipality with delegated authority of Březnice resulting from the Crisis Plan of Příbram's Area with Extended Powers and whether the municipality is ready to deal with these threats?" The city of Březnice is not quite prepared for upcoming hazards since there are not analyzed all threats which may occur, because these plans are too general to analyze well the setting of lower administrative districts and this has become the next finding. Further, I may claim that the city of Březnice is, in many ways, independent while dealing with certain crisis situations due to sources which the city provides. This is another aim of the work. The created suggestion of the Plan of Crisis Preparedness should contribute to effective solutions during crisis situations in a municipality with delegated authority of Březnice and thanks to created cards; the solution of crisis situations should become better-arranged with the plans. The created suggestion of the mentioned plan may become a model for processing crisis documentation in other municipalities.
