Query Language for Biological Databases
Bahurek, Tomáš ; Vogel, Ivan (referee) ; Martínek, Tomáš (advisor)
With rising amount of biological data, biological databases are becoming more important each day. Knowledge discovery (identification of connections that were unknown at the time of data entry) is an essential aspect of these databases. To gain knowledge from these databases one has to construct complicated SQL queries, which requires advanced knowledge of SQL language and used database schema. Biologists usually don't have this knowledge, which creates need for tool, that would offer more intuitive interface for querying biological databases. This work proposes ChQL, an intuitive query language for biological database Chado. ChQL allows biologists to assemble query using terms they are familiar without knowledge of SQL language or Chado database schema. This work implements application for querying Chado database using ChQL. Web interface guides user through process of assembling sentence in ChQL. Application translates this sentence to SQL query, sends it to Chado database and displays returned data in table. Results are evaluated by testing queries on real data.

Knoll, Vladislav ; Giger, Markus (advisor) ; Berger, Tilman (referee) ; Cybulski, Marek (referee)
The German influence on Kashubian and its confrontation with the Polish influence By Vladislav Knoll The theme of this dissertation is the evolution of the presence of the language contact phenomena in a particular example of a contact situation on the Slavonic-Germanic linguistic border in the 20th century. The research is based on the analysis of Kashubian according to the following three aspects: the extent of the Germanic (both Low and Literary German) interference in Kashubian, the diachronic view consisting in the evaluation of the impact of a rapid sociolinguistic turn (change of the 'High' Language from German to Polish) and the birth of a literary language seen from the point of view of contact linguistics. The study is divided into two main parts. The first half of the study is dedicated to a deep analysis of both the morphosyntactical and the lexical influence of German in Kashubian based on a corpus of a written record of spoken language from c. 1900. The second half of the study discusses the analyses of the presence of contact phenomena (described in the first part of the essay) in the selected literary works covering the period from the late 19th century up to the present day. The outcome of the dissertation is the identification and description of the fate of the German...

Mohoritová, Nela ; Šmejkalová, Martina (referee) ; Palkosková, Olga (advisor)
This work is devoted to linguistic and stylistic analysis of three texts by contemporary authors. Texts correspond to the fairy tale genre and were issued in the last five years. These texts are "Pohádky pro dobrodruhy" by Zdeněk Šmíd, "Lingvistické pohádky" by Petr Nikl and "Knihafoss" by Marka Míková. The analysis covers all the linguistic planes, the overall style of the work, syntactic, lexical, morphological, phonetic and graphic aspects of the texts. It focuses primarily on the linguistic resources characteristic of the author, the way they are used and their function in the text. We attempt to find common features of language and style of contemporary fairy tale, but also show the original language experiments of the individual authors. Attention is given to horizontal and vertical text layout, the language of the narrator and his role in the text. Also, we examine various ways the authors contact their readers and the means used to do so, for contacting the reader is one common element found in all examined works. Other common features include language game, the principle of interactivity and use of varied vocabulary. In the lexical level this shows in author's work with toponymes, neologisms. At the syntactic level they combine similar syntactic means, at the phonetic level all texts incorporate...

Comparison of contemporary Spanish nationalisms: dangerous separatism or pattern of European regionalism?
Brož, Filip ; Buben, Radek (advisor) ; Bureš, Jan (referee)
Spain is not composed with only one nation, it is indeed a multinational state, which is thus logically homeland for many nationalisms and nationalism-related problems. First, I analyze the historical causes of the emergence of nationalisms in the Basque country, Catalonia and Galicia. These causes are the regionalistic tradition of Spain combined with proper attributes of each of these regions, such as economical power, different language and culture and historical experience with self government in the case of Catalonia, distinct "race" and attractive mythology in the case of the Basque country and again, proper language and culture in the case of Galicia, accentuated with their Celtic origins. 67 Second, I analyze the democratic transition from a nationalistic point of view: the constitution of 1978 permitted a strong decentralization and the construction of a state of autonomies. That gave a relative satisfaction to nationalisms but new problems are appearing. Third, I consider nationalisms within the framework of parties and party systems: each of the three regions has a moderate nationalistic party, which is often dominant in its respective region, but their moderate character is often a pragmatic one, moreover Catalonia and especially the Basque country have relevant radical parties. As a conclusion,...

Language and style of Chinese propaganda
Kříž, Martin ; Lomová, Olga (advisor) ; Sehnal, David (referee)
Na základě provedených rozborů textů jsem určil některé typické znaky jazyka totalitní moci, které se objevují v jazyce agitátorů Komunistické strany Číny. Některé z nich odpovídají charakteristikám, kterými se vyznačuje LTI a jazyk komunistické propagandy ČSSR a SSSR a kterými se ve svých analýzách zabývali Victor Klemperer a Petr Fidelius. Jiné prvky jazyka propagandy Komunistické strany Číny jsou jedinečné a odrážejí hlavně kulturní odlišnosti. Největším tématem textů podrobených analýze byla Komunistická strana Číny a její úloha. V tomto směru se autoři textů občas dostali i k významu socialismu. V počátcích Čínské lidové republiky se kladl velký důraz na úlohu komunistické strany při založení republiky. Straně patřil v tomto směru všechen dík, neboť ta jediná se zasloužila o osvobození čínského lidu, sjednocení země a založení republiky. Strana byla odpovědná i za budoucnost lidu, neboť lid vedla a stanovovala cíle, které měly zem dovést ke světlým zítřkům. Ve spojení s počátky Čínské lidové republiky se také v textech objevil první, čistě čínský termín ,.demokratická diktatura lidu'' respektive "lidovědemokratická diktatura" (renmin minzhu zhuanzhenK Á !0 fl! i:' i")Jfr). Autorem nebyl nikdo jiný než "Velký kormidelník" Mao Zedong. V tomto případě jsem došel k závěru, že se jedná o změnu významu na...

The Approach of Medical Rescue Service to Treatment of Clients from Different Cultures
TREŠLOVÁ, Zuzana
At the present time a varied ethnic population lives in the Czech Republic and foreigners are found in all medical institutions, from general practitioners to hospitals. This bachelor thesis briefly resumes the theory of multicultural nursing and the special characteristics of treating selected groups of foreigners. The aim of the thesis is both to map out the frequency of departures of the Medical Rescue Service of South Bohemia to patients/clients from different cultures, and to find out how the paramedics from the Medical Rescue Service of South Bohemia approach these patients/clients. The theoretical part contains characterization of rescue service, describes the profession of the paramedic and their competence. In the following part the thesis deals with multicultural health care. At first multicultural health care is described and the terms connected with this subject are explained. Then multicultural communication and its forms are discussed, the special characteristics of health care for foreign patients (in this particular case Romany, Vietnamese and Ukrainian inhabitants) are analysed. Finally the system of health care for foreign patients and the state of health of migrants in the Czech Republic are briefly mentioned. Part two, which is practical, is devoted to research, which used the quantitative method in the form of questionnaires. The findings suggest that the paramedics from the Medical Rescue Service of South Bohemia are well informed about the basic differences in distinct cultures, which means that the first hypothesis was confirmed. According to research paramedics are able to communicate adequately in English or German but at the same time they say that the language barrier is a frequent problem when treating a foreign client. However, this claim never exceded fifty per cent of the results, therefore I can neither confirm nor refute this hypothesis. Paramedics working for the medical rescue service do not need to know multicultural health care in depth. It is important to know at least one world language and, if possible, to have a car equipped with communication cards.
