DCTOOL-A3
Bakule, Lubomír ; Papík, Martin ; Rehák, Branislav
DCTOOL-A3 is a documentation of Matlab routines developed for the design of decentralized control of large scale complex systems. The current beta version covers three areas as follows:\nReport 4.1 deals with the event-triggered control design for unstructured uncertain systems. Both non-quantized and quantized feedback is analyzed. The results are given in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). Logarithmic quantizer is used. Numerical example illustrates the effectiveness of the presented results.\nReport 4.2 presents a new decentralized overlapping wireless control design with a switched communication protocol. The method is applied by simulations on the 20-story building structure including the test of robustness of the methods against sensor failures and network node dropouts of a digital network.\nReport 4.3 presents the construction of a new decentralized wireless controller and a set of heuristic algorithms for evaluation of packet dropouts, sensor faults and actuator faults. The digital network operates at the standard frequency used in well-known widely-used industrial protocols. The results are tested at the Benchmark model decomposed into two disjoint substructures. The results are published. Thus, the details are omitted here.

Comparing the Price of a Transportation Structure and the Actual Costs Incurred in Various Stages of Construction
Nezbeda, Jiří ; Zímová, Štěpánka (referee) ; Kosová, Jaroslava (advisor)
This diploma thesis deals with the calculation of the cost of the building work in order to create the price, which at the stage of the contract becomes a selling price, and the costs are fixed as a budget. The subject of this work is to monitor the development of costs in time so that the cost does not exceed the budget and the construction did not get into the negative result. Then set the price by its own methods (item budget, calculation according to budget indicators) and compare the prices and costs thus obtained from different phases of construction between each other and determine the differences. In this work is monitored and compared the cost of a construction contract and its costs in the construction stages. In the practical part,is used the method of direct comparison of cost and price values over time, in the form of different outputs from the controlling program and outputs from compiled item budget and the calculation of the construction. Analyzing the differences between these costs and their evolution over time by more detailed examination of item budgets and cost calculations, they determine the origin of these deviations. In conclusion, is proposed measures for a particular transport structure whitch was handled by the author as"master and co-ordinator of the construction".

The Catalogues of Records Companies of Early 20th Century
Gössel, Gabriel ; Šír, Filip
Grey literature often contains documents such as publisher or corporate catalogues. Included among these are catalogues of record companies, which provide evidence of all the sound documents issued for sale. Recordings are part of the collections of many institutions, but few of them also own these secondary information resources. Therefore, they are not able to contribute to the overall view of the cultural heritage of the era when the gramophone industry began and developed rapidly.

Kloiber, Michal ; Bláha, Jiří ; Hrivnák, Jaroslav ; Buzek, Jaroslav ; Kunecký, Jiří ; Hasníková, Hana
The survey described in this report contains the condition assessment of the truss of the Church of Holy Spirit in Telč. The stimulus for the survey report was an order from the parochial congregation ČCE in Telč. The order included a request to assess the condition and identify the extent of wood-decaying damage to the truss of the Church of the Holy Spirit in Telč, focusing on the location of the critical spots, the classification of the damage degree, the determination of the extent of hidden damage using non-destructive devices, and the specification of the wood damage cause, including drawing of the results in the documentation on the current truss condition. Based on the results, specific procedures of repair measures were proposed and the elements proposed for the reconstruction were sketched in the documentation.

Project management in selected company
POKORNÝ, Radek
This work deals with project management in chosen company. It has two parts. The first part is theoretical, which is focused to theoretical treatment of the subject. It explains what is the project, management of projects, organizations of projects, processes of project management, what is target of project, communication, control, changes and risks and more. In the practical part I focused to concrete company and project management and than I analyzed concrete project. Name of the mentioned company is OHL ŽS, a.s. It is company from Spain, which acts all over the world. In the Czech Republic has the base in Brno. This company has several divisions and every of them is focused to different professional architecture. I have chosen division of structural engineering. This division builds all kinds of buildings. It could be construction of new buildings or reconstruction. To analysis of chosen project I used various business documents, contracts with investor or suppliers, document which include billing, timetable. I especially used my experience with projects of this company, and I was part of this project. Name of this project is Reconstruction of cladding including replacement windows and insulation. During the analysis of project I found a couple major gaps. If we could avoid these gaps, we could increase profit. These graphs is especially in management. At the beginning there were appointed two temporary construction managers. They doesn't care about result project, because they knew that they will not be to the end of the project. These gaps are because there is missing motivation system. Project manager can´t affect results of employees. It doesn´t depend on performance of employees, they always has the same wages. For elimination of these gaps I proposed several suggestions for improvement. The first suggestion is modification and extension of motivation system. New motivation system include personal evaluation. This evaluation depends on performance of employee. The second part is bonus from over profit. The next suggestion is make a new working position. This position would take care about controlling and project documentation. During the building project, especially at the end is construction manager very busy. It depend of decision of construction 63 manager what kind of activity will have prefer. Project documentation and administration or controlling of building works. If they are doing everything correct and technology are respect. Suggested position would take care about invoices, real work, which is done, project documentation, controlling of budget. The third suggestion is purchase of small machinery such as chipping hammers and drills. At this time they rent all devices. Rent is higher than purchase price. The last suggestion is use credit to restoration of fleet. At this time they have obsolete fleet, because the bought all cars by cash. It is not conveniently.

The Importance of the Fundraiser in a Non-profit Organization
STARÁ, Radka
The main theme of the bachelor work is the importance of the fundraiser in a non-profit organization. It defines the term fundraising, its principles, forms and methods, the work of a fundraiser in a non-profit organization.The work characterizes nonprofit organizations, their legal status and field of activity. There are also information about activities, which improve economy and financial situation of these organizations. In the practical part of my work I have analyzed the way of financing a non-profit organization Junak- Czech scout, Centre Pod Kleti Holubov z.s. I am comparing in this part the way of fundraiser work on the local and state platform. The facts here available are drawn from the public web pages of this organization and also from the account keeping documents of its local center. At the conclusion of my work I am assessing the effectiveness of fund raising plan and its strategy and also describing the way of negotiation with donors. I am noticing the need of a fund raising team creation and also rules of fundraising including necessary cooperation between the center of organization and its local branches.

International Digital Library of Manuscripts
Knoll, Adolf,
The Manuscriptorium Digital Library is Europe’s largest digital library of manuscripts providing access to data from more than 120 institutions across Europe incl. ca. 55 most important Czech collections. In March 2015, it contained 43,372 fully digitized documents and more than 337,000 bibliographic records. The documents are not only of European origin (Western, Slavonic, Hebrew, Armenian ...), but there are also data representing Arabic, Persian, Ottoman, Indian and other manuscript traditions. The digital library was launched in 2003 by the National Library of the Czech Republic, in partnership with the Czech AiP Beroun Company. In comparison and in contrast with other aggregation services, it provides seamless access to full digital documents on the fly, reusing thus repositories of partner digital libraries. Users do not need to travel or to navigate from one physical place or digital library to another one to access needed documents. Manuscriptorium provides uniform interface to any data from any digital library that signed the partnership agreement. The internal metadata solution is based on the robust TEI P5 approach and suits both library and researchers’ requirements for description and structuring. It aggregates not only fully digitized documents, but also the partially digitized ones and bibliographic records. It contains manuscripts as well as old printed books, historical maps, and historical posters. The documents are mostly represented by digital images and in certain extent also by full texts, TEI-structured and unstructured. The Manuscriptorium larger environment provides also online support to TEI authoring and online metadata validation and upload. ...

Sepsis in intensive care, precautionary measures on the part of nursing personnel and department management
JANOUŠKOVÁ, Ludmila
Sepsis represents a serious medical, but also social problem. Hundreds of thousands of patients die from serious sepsis and septic shock every year. Patients with serious sepsis are treated at intensive care units and their treatment is long, costly and low efficient. These are the reasons why prevention of sepsis focused on prevention and effective treatment of nosocomial infections or timely solution of another problem, e.g. a shock is so much stressed. Nosocomial infections affect about 30 per cent of patients at intensive care units and may cause serious diseases, sepsis or even death. This thesis deals with the possibilities nurses have to influence sepsis, particularly by adherence to aseptic procedures and prevention of nosocomial infection, which might consequently develop in nosocomial sepsis. Combination of quantitative and qualitative methods was used for the research. There were two goals set for the quantitative research. 1. To find whether obstacles occur in adherence to proper aseptic procedures in nursing work as prevention of nosocomial infection occurrence and subsequent septic conditions in patients hospitalized at intensive medicine workplaces. 2. To map the weak points in adherence to proper aseptic procedures in nursing work in intensive care. The goals led to hypotheses H1 Obstacles obstructing thorough adherence to proper aseptic procedures in nursing work exist in intensive care. H2 Non-adherence to aseptic procedures occurs in nursing work at intensive medicine workplaces as a consequence of lack of time for particular interventions. The research sample consisted of nurses from the intensive care workplaces ARD and ICU from 8 hospitals. Questioning method through the questionnaire technique was used for data collection. 342 questionnaires were distributed in total. Hypothesis 1 was refuted, hypothesis 2 was refuted. We found that no obstacles obstructing adherence to proper aseptic methods occur, we mapped the weak points in adherence to proper aseptic procedures in nursing work in intensive care. There were two goals set for the qualitative research. GOAL 3 To find what measures preventing occurrence of nosocomial infection and subsequent septic conditions in patients hospitalized at intensive medicine workplaces are taken by department managements. GOAL 4 To find out how department management deals with possible occurrence of nosocomial infection and subsequent septic conditions in patients hospitalized at intensive medicine workplaces. The following research questions were set. 1. What are the measures preventing occurrence of nosocomial infection and subsequent septic conditions in patients hospitalized at intensive medicine workplaces taken by department managements? 2. How does department management solve possible occurrence of nosocomial infection and subsequent septic conditions in patients hospitalized at intensive medicine workplaces? The research sample consisted of 5 departmental nurses and 5 head nurses from intensive care workplaces from the same hospitals where the quantitative research took place. The research was performed by semi-standardized interview. The research questions were answered. A manual for nurses called ?Recommendation for nurses in prevention of nosocomial infection and nosocomial sepsis not only at intensive care units? was elaborated upon study of these issues and the performed research. A thought map for department management illustrating prevention and solution of nosocomial infection and nosocomial sepsis was also elaborated. Both the document and the research results will be provided particularly to the managements of the hospitals that took part in our research. The thesis may also be helpful to nurses, students and other interested people to gain overall insight into the issue.

A historical view of the army nurse profession.
PAVLÍKOVÁ, Andrea
The thesis deals with the profession of a military nurse. We can assert that the official study of military, non-medical health-care related qualifications and its use in practice not only for military purposes dates back to the fifties of the last century. However, women as health care professionals, consequently in uniforms, have always been an actual issue. The development of health care activities always existed, however, we must not neglect influence of scientific and medical findings. The historical timeline of development of medical care in the battle field was recorded and ranges from pre-historical healing. The way of Christian medicine was negatively influenced by the Catholic Church. The dark period of the Middle Ages had actually wrested medical performance from the hands of specialists and the suffering were left to the "tender" mercies of the priests. The following part of the thesis concerns modern medicine where enlightenment reforms were exercised. Some of the original six-month courses for military surgeons were organised in this period of time; they weretransformed into Military Surgical Academy, out of which the famous Josefinum originated. A expression of humanity which supported a form of health care of war veterans was demonstrated by constructing buildings for invalid people. The second half of the nineteenth century is characterized by the phenomenon of the presence of nuns in military hospitals. This study goes further in depth of professionally organized healthcare right in the battle field, which dates back from the era of wars in the Crimea.This stage describes the transformation of caring into nursing which requires the necessity of specialized preparation of persons providing nursing practice. In addition, Henry Dunant engraved himself into the history of the profession of a nurse, as the founder of the Red Cross, who first trained health care professionals for working within armed intentions of the state. The continuation of this action sketches out the process of providing first aid in principal armed conflicts of the twentieth century. It describes the functioning of commander operated military health service of that time. WWI drove Czech medical staff to both sides of the front where they provided medical help to the injured. Nurses of the WWII already performed their duties in uniforms as the rightful members of the army. The thesis also mentions post-war usage of military health care professionals in secret foreign missions and their specialized erudition.Last but not least, it marginally discusses contemporary possibilities of modern health care service of the Army of the Czech Republic. The goal of the endeavours of writing this thesis was to chart out clearly the development of the profession of a military nurse within the historical context, focusing mainly on women coming from Czech regions. In order to make the history background concerning specific female participants of the world war conflicts understandable to the reader, this paper reports, in broader extension, peculiar medical and nursing findings, already from the era of prehistoric civilisations. The history study method were applied for the purpose of the theoretical thesis. The methodology is based on searching, studying, sorting and the consecutive systematic objective describing of the events from the past times with the intention to propose comprehensive report on the subject given. It was necessary to study inexhaustible amount of sources to obtain awareness of historical connections. Factual information was derived by analysing of primary and mainly secondary documents. The thesis sketches out histories of military health care and the profession of a military health care professional stemmed from the exploration of appropriate written sources and conclusion of the basic findings. The intentions of the work are not only to clarify the past but also to contribute to solutions of every-day issues.
