Vilém Flusser's Concept of Information as Aesthetic Experience
Soukupová, Lenka ; Stejskal, Jakub (advisor) ; Magidová, Markéta (referee)
On the basis of the selected Vilém Flusser's texts, the main aim of the present thesis is to comprehend the meaning of aesthetic categories in his philosophy. The key to understanding of the essence of Flusser's aesthetic is the concept of the derivation of aesthetic categories from a degree of a habit, expressed in the essay Habit as a true aesthetic criterion. The related problem of the information transmission is the central issue of the chapter Vampyroteuthis Infernalis: His Art, from which the crucial significance of the means of communication in the creative process of expressing and processing the information emerges. This significance is the base for proposition of the upcoming cultural revolution, which is the most comprehensively listed in the essay Into the universe of technical images and in which the aesthetic criteria become universal. Other literature is discussed occasionally during the observance of the pattern outlined above. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

Information value and acceptability in weather forecast
Bělohlávková, Kateřina ; Janovec, Ladislav (advisor) ; Palkosková, Olga (referee)
7. SUMMARY This diploma thesis The information value and acceptability of forecasting is divided into a theoretical and a practical part. In the theoretical part the forecasting is described as a product of television newscast. I deal with the fact of forecasting entering the media communication. I deal with the information value that forecasts bring and show the way a piece of information is transferred from a producer to an addressee relating to the process of coding and decoding. I describe the acceptability of forecasts and its elements influencing comprehension. In relation to acceptability, textual linguistics is discussed in a separated subchapter. The last theoretical part deals with semiotics and semantics. These disciplines deal mainly with meaning and sings and that is the reason why they are not important only in the theoretical part but also in an analyzing part of this thesis. The analyzing part is based on semiotic survey analysis dealing with individual components of forecasts (visual, audio and audio-visual). The aim of this thesis is to find out which of components of forecasting brings the highest information value to respondents and which is best comprehensible for addressees. The survey results demonstrate that it is the audio forecasting that has a high information value and brings...

Comprehensive Web Audit Methodology
Sekulová, Kateřina ; Vlasák, Rudolf (advisor) ; Očko, Petr (referee)
A web site is often the first point of contact between the user and another person or company or organization, so that in the electronic world, a web site is like a calling card. Ideally therefore, a web site should load relatively quickly to prevent the user from looking elsewhere even before the web site has opened. Also, the web site should have a pleasant design to make it user-friendly, it should display helpful content, be widely accessible and, last but not least, fulfil the aims for which it was created. It is the responsibility of web site designers, programmers and creators to ensure that web sites fulfil their function. A web site audit - either during or after its construction - is the best way of checking that all factors relating to access, use, technical processes and other criteria function correctly. There are many audit companies on the market today, each of them offering the customer its own particular perspective, evaluation according to different criteria and audit conducted using various methods. Therefore, the first part of this work contains an overview of different perspectives used to assess the quality of web sites, as well as designers and the specific methodology they apply during web site audits. The theoretical part of this methodology ends with a way how the success and...

MY CODE/WORLD
Franková, Anna ; Zálešák, Jan (referee) ; Macháček, Mikuláš (advisor)
My Code/World is a personal artistic research of the environment in which I work as a programmer - not a physical environment, but the virtual environment of a computer interface. This research has been taking place since roughly October 2016 and its result is a collection of loosely connected pieces (sketches, experiments), that will be presented as an installation within the studio space of the Studio Graphic Design 2, Faculty of Fine Arts, BUT.

Code Generation from UML Activity Diagrams
Gajarský, Pavol ; Richta, Karel (advisor) ; Strnad, Pavel (referee)
Code generation from UML is still very limited. Diagrams, which are usually used for code generation describes the static structure. These are mostly the class diagrams. One of the most useful and least used types of diagrams is behavioral diagrams. The reason for this is mainly a lack of support from the UML specification. The onset of version 2.0 has brought visible changes in this area. This thesis will focus only on activity diagrams and possibilities of code generation from them. One of them will be verified on a prototype tool that can generate skeleton of code in chosen language (e.g. Java, C + +, PHP ,...). Then it will be compared to alternative approaches and evaluated in terms of its advantages and disadvantages. As input is expected activity diagram created and exported by external CASE tool in XMI format. Architecture of tool will provide possibility of defining new modules. So the end user will be able to program another output language by the medium of given interface.

Comparative analysis of cover pages of magazines Respekt and Reflex in the period of 2009-2010 (textual and semiotic comparison)
Kovářová, Pavla ; Šoltys, Otakar (advisor) ; Kučera, Štěpán (referee)
Bachelor thesis "A comparative analysis of cover pages of magazines Respekt and Reflex in the period of 2009 - 2010 (textual and semiotic comparison)" deals with semiotic analysis of the cover pages of two similar weekly magazines in the same period. Research sample includes five covers of each magazine which shows Czech political figures. The first part of this thesis it describes the theoretical essence of semiotics. The second one is about magazines and theory of cover. In practical part analyses the covers of both magazines with the aim of overall comparison in terms of their communicating intentions, construction of reality and its work with myths and stereotypes. Visual and language codes are studied in terms of denotation, connotation and implied postmodern myths. In the recent media discursus has been interpreting signs and symbols, decoding the hidden meanings and perceptions of the dominant ideology in the construct of reality. Attention is focused on the design of Reflex' photomontage and Respekt's drawing, as well as on composition, colors and using stereotypes. Result of analysis shows a consistent approach of both magazines to the dominant ideology, but a different approach to construct reality and creating the communication plan, which comes just from the way of processing.

Computational Tool for Gas Flow Modeling through the Piston Assembly
Vitteková, Zuzana ; Dlugoš, Jozef (referee) ; Raffai, Peter (advisor)
The main topic of this bachelor’s thesis is to create a graphical users interface (GUI) in Matlab, facilitating the entry of input parameters for the calculation of the gas flow through the piston assembly and its evaluation. The first part is dedicated to the theory of piston rings followed by an introduction into the gas flow problematics. The second part concerns the procedure of creating the aforementioned GUI.
