At the beginning of the thesis, the current issue of why public software licenses are used today and how they are legally perceived is examined. Emphasis is placed on Czech law in the context of civil code and copyright law and with them associated licensing agreements, since the vast majority of the license terms of the world-wide used free software licenses is only written in English, and the terminology is based on the United States legal system. Consequently, the nomenclature and the necessary terms for working with the license terms are unified. In the main part of the thesis specific licenses are selected according to their relative usage and their characteristics based on relevant market surveys. These chosen licenses and their license agreements are analyzed more in-depth. Specific contractual agreements of said license agreements are expanded upon whilst being named in the thesis as “license aspects”. In the practical part of the thesis is described a solution for a web information portal, which should serve the laic as an initial view on the issue of public software licenses. The site addresses the issues of selecting a specific public software license for its original work (software), introducing specific licenses and comparing them based on analyzed licensing aspects, compatibility of more public software licenses in a larger composite software unit in which the individual software components of the whole are licensed under various public software licenses. Also, the consequences of choosing one of the selected public software licenses for the future of the software are described. At the end of the thesis, the vision of the future information portal, its expansion with other functionalities and its overall possible improvement based on feedback from the public are also presented.

Nejedlý, Jakub ; Masařík, Karel (referee) ; Burget, Radek (advisor)
This work treats the creation of an information system for software license management. The ordering company is Codasip, which deals with processor manufacturing and creation of related software tools. This company has been using its web portal and licenses management system is its expanding module. That is why the source code of the project is written, as well as the original web interface, in PHP language, using the Nette Framework. Moreover there is the LM-X technology of software licensig described here and so the deployment in a rival solution. The specifications of the product by X-Formation and Codasip's requirements are setting the basics for license system design. The design itself and the description of the implementation according to MVP design pattern, are part of this work.
