Web system for sale of prepaid services
Kafka, Tomáš ; Poch, Tomáš (referee) ; Kofroň, Jan (advisor)
Software as a service is a modern model of software deployment where application is hosted as service and charged monthly. We have developed a platform for selling software service over the internet as a web application, working on LAMP (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP 5) server stack. Several reusable components were created to facilitate rendering and handling of forms and tables and wrap them with object API. Application is completely internationalized allowing even different price plans for different countries. Afterwards we analyzed the impact of ORM frameworks on application performance and compared two contemporary PHP ORM frameworks, choosing MyActiveRecord as more suitable, and benchmarked it in order to find the influence of using SQL query cache on minimization of number of database requests. A 29 % decrease of queries was measured.

Centralized management of user access rights in large organizations with heterogeneous structure
Balada, Jakub ; Vohnoutová, Marta (advisor) ; Beneš, Antonín (referee)
Each platform, a database, a group of applications etc. have its own management, its own user list and list of user rights, its own security policy and so on. The administration is demanding, application control and data access make demands both on system administrators, data owners, and common users. This situation is not suitable even for a general security policy of an organization. That is why the Identity and Access Management is implemented. The Identity Management solves a central user management including their user roles. User accounts as well as other user information in subordinate systems and applications are created, modified and deleted exclusively through the Identity Management. On the other hand, the Access Management is the single source of information about user access rights for systems and applications. This diploma thesis describes in detail a system of hierarchy of user access rights, a way, particular user access rights are approved, and a way of their activations. The solution described, is a part of a real large project made for a big state authority.

The integration of MS Excel and BusinessObjects
Žižka, Ondřej ; Novotný, Ota (advisor) ; Hauzírek, Michal (referee)
The main goal of this work is to analyze the change in reporting mortgage processes in the GE Money Bank from the solution based on the application Microsoft Excel into a state, where the mortgage reporting is integrated into the solution based on BusinessObjects platform. And at the same time to carry out the comparison of new and previous solution. To partial purposes belongs the quantification of time savings and benefits resulting from the integration and adumbration of the next integration step "Generation 2". These aims were achieved by obtaining theoretic knowledge of Business Intelligence, by my participation in the real project practically and by consultations of knowledge with specialists in practice. Main contribution of this work is in suggestion and analysis of the reporting solution in the firm. It enables speed up and automatizes processes of data measure, which were ineffective and time-consuming capacities of workers. The work is divided into the four main chapters. The teoretic forepart introduces the role of Business Intelligence in a firm and acquaints readers with contemporary trends in BI. The second part has practical background. The Business Intelligence architecture in GE Money Bank is analyzed in this part. Awareness of BI architecture and data sources is important due to understanding connection of the BusinessObjects with the database. In the third part the project "Integration of mortgage measure from MS Excel to the BusinessObjects" is introduced and it is also suggested, how the integration would be proceed. At last part my personal findings are summarized, benefits of integration are formulated and future view is described. Last but not least an advice resulting from the project is showed or what would be possible to do better next time.

Classification of Services in Cloud Computing
Osecký, Michal ; Burkoň, Lukáš (advisor) ; Feuerlicht, Jiří (referee)
From the fact that there are different approaches to the definition of the term cloud computing follows that the approaches to the description of its inner organization also vary. In the next part, the thesis looks into these approaches and briefly compares them. It further describes the economical model of this way of providing IT services, which is a result of the approach developed within the technological and economical Software-as-a-Service model. Attention is paid to the basic technological questions of cloud computing, i.e. mainly to the design of services, management of databases, data safety and scaling of the computing resources. The final analysis of services provided within cloud computing is first done vertically, i.e. it is a comparison of the different types of services relating to the individual layers of the technological model, starting with the provision of hardware and computing services, over platform services to the Software-as-a-Service layer of the model. Subsequently, a comparison of services of several big players is made in the individual layers, i.e. horizontally. The thesis focuses on the on-demand way of providing IT services, currently known as cloud computing. Attention is paid specifically to the organization and interoperability of the provided IT services within cloud computing, as understood today by the expert public and commercial sphere. First the thesis deals with various possible definitions of the term cloud computing, it summarizes these approaches and attempts to outline the term and its determining attributes. This outline is then followed by describing the historical development of the distributed applications and older models of providing ICT services, from which cloud computing originates. The goal of the thesis is to describe the issue of classification of services in cloud computing and make the above-mentioned comparisons in an clear way and based on suitable metric. As a conclusion, the author presents his view on the future of the cloud computing and sums up the whole thesis.

Software for a Czech-Chinese and Chinese-Czech dictionary
Hudeček, Jan ; Straňák, Pavel (referee) ; Homola, Petr (advisor)
Czech-Chinese and Chinese-Czech dictionary is an electronic dictionary which can be used both by a beginner or a seasoned translator. It allows searching in both directions and a fulltext search for given expression. Data access is hybrid - the program checks if it can access the database - if it fails it reads the data files. Moreover users can change the data source at run-time. The program builds indexes on the data file speeding searches up considerably. Indexes can be hashtables or binary trees. Asynchronous multithreaded IO was implemented to enhance the comfort of the GUI. The .NET framework and MS SQL Server as a platform guarantees rapid development, deployment and scalability - for example adding a web application to the project would be quite easy. At the same time the design of the system allows for future improvements - for instance editing the dictionary from the GUI.

The Concept of Pollution Kegare in Japan at the Turn of 16th and 17th Century
Mornsteinová, Lucie ; Labus, David (advisor) ; Sýkora, Jan (referee)
The major objective of this master thesis, is to describe the process of forming and development of the social groups connected with the concept of ritual pollution kegare in Japan at the turn of 16th century. The main questions are: In which direction did the development of these groups tend to go from the outset of the Japanese Middle Ages? Did the policies of the unifiers of Japan cause any disruptions to this development, and if so, what was the new direction? Was creation of the Edo outcaste order also motivated by an effort to restrict access to strategical commodities, or was it only a side effect of individual edicts and restrictions? To answer these questions I used two approaches. At first I diachronically described the development of groups connected with the concept of ritual pollution from the ancient times, and to this data I applied Mary Douglas's grid and group theory. Results of this show that during the time period in question development of groups of eta tanners was significantly accelerated, while the status of the non-persons groups of hinin was stagnating, or regressing. This thesis hopefully offers a brief insight into the overlooked aspects of Japanese history, and sheds some light on the reason for the discrimination of descendants of the burakumin group which in Japan...
