Vrbová, Jana ; Kislingerová, Eva (advisor) ; Čapoun, Karel (referee) ; Pernica, Petr (referee)
Thesis ?Value generation and management in retail/whole chains? was started with intention to offer enhanced theoretical basis for research in this area, that is still represented insufficiently in comparison to importance of retail/whole chains in whole economy. Additionally the practical inconsistency between trading rules demostrated to customers and trading partners of chains (including visible behaviour of chains) and value driving variables bears interest. The thesis targets following: search and indication of potential value drivers (value affecting variables) of retail/wholesale chains description of such value affecting variables, testing of relevance of such value affecting variables synthesis of description and relevance (importance) gives recommendations and measures for value creation in these chains Based on analysis of external conditions and internal sources were identified following value generating areas: strategy of retail/wholesale chain growing from internal source of competitive advantage ? strategical differentiation, issue of expansion (understood both as strategical variable - potential competitive advantage, and external threat of concentration value creating variables of core business of retail/wholesale chain: price strategy managing of liquidity stabilization of operating profit in condition of fluctuation sales

Graph algorithms in text retrieval
Irikovský, Peter ; Kopecký, Michal (advisor) ; Galamboš, Leo (referee)
This thesis surveys use of graph theory and algorithms in information retrieval. It provides an introduction to graph and information retrieval theories and an overview of the overlap between these disciplines. We show application of the graph theory in clustering, document classification, finding communities etc. The most stress is, however, put on ranking algorithms as they aim to improve the most critical property of the information retrieval systems, their precision. The paper presents different graphbased ranking algorithms, provides comments to their time and memory requirements and to realistic usage of these rankings. It also contains a description and test results of our implementation of algorithms for computing the PageRank distribution designed for the Egothor search engine.

Analysis of Communication Focused on Gender Stereotypes on the Children's Internet Portal "Alík"
Mlynářová, Martina ; Pavlík, Petr (advisor) ; Turková, Miloslava (referee)
Internet a jeho globální demokratické a do značné míry svobodné prostředí poskytuje svým (nejen) dětským uživatelům a uživatelkám obrovské množství informací, ale i aktivit, her atd. Děti tyto zdroje masivně využívají a zároveň si nevědomě osvojují určité představy o společnosti, o světě, ale i o ženách a o mužích. Podílejí se tak na svém vlastním vývoji, sebehodnocení a na základě přijímaných sdělení si do budoucna budují i určitý přístup k okolí. Jinými slovy, moderní komunikační prostředky nabízejí (nejen) dětem téměř neomezené možnosti sebereflexe a sebeprojekce, stejně jako jim otvírají prostor pro uchopení své genderové identity.

Forensic ballistics
Hoznour, Ondřej ; Štourač, Petr (advisor) ; Musil, Jan (referee)
Criminalistic ballistics The aim of my thesis is to analyse criminalistic ballistics, which is a technical criminalistic method enabling to convict many offenders. The thesis is composed of five parts, each of them dealing with several aspects of ballistics. The introductory part describes the history of criminalistic ballistics from the end of the eighteenth century to the present. This part deals with the development of criminalistic ballistics not only in the world, but also in the Czech Republic. Part Two explains the concept of criminalistic ballistics and deals with its dividing into four relatively independent areas. These four areas are internal, transient, external and terminal ballistics. The following part concentrates on objects that are explored by criminalistic balllistics. The most imported explored objects are guns, their segments and classification, next it is the ammunition, its segments and types of cartridges followed by subjects which are hit by bullets and last but not least are gunshot residues. Part Four focuses on the origin and occurrence of ballistic traces which are created by particular functional gun's segments during the process of gunshot. This part also deals with searching for carriers of ballistic traces, i.e. bullets, cartridge cases and subjects with traces of...

Konvalinková, Kateřina ; Rychtecký, Antonín (advisor) ; Hošek, Václav (referee)
3 Summary The deployment of soldiers on foreign missions can be accompanied by both mental and physical strain. Consequently, it is necessary to search for alternative ways of preventing any adverse phenomena and keeping the soldiers in a good mental and physical form. The possible action seems to be the creating of such conditions on military bases that would match soldiers' existing standards of living and ensure sufficient number of motion and leisure time activities. The title of the thesis: The dynamics of participation in leisure time activities by soldiers on foreign missions in dependence on their current mental states The objective of the thesis: - To examine whether there exists a relationship between performing sports and other leisure time activities and the dynamics of experiencing mental states during a mission; - To diagnose changes in mental states of observed persons; - To find the most frequent stress factors influencing soldiers on military bases and to map out possibilities for leisure time activities. Research question: Does the length of deployment and the related changes of soldiers' mental states influence their participation in leisure time activities? Does a military base offer sufficient choice of facilities for leisure time activities? Working hypotheses: H1: The intensity and...
