Beneš, Martin ; Pernica, Petr (advisor) ; Jirsák, Petr (referee)
This diploma thesis has been created based on the demand of the management of DHL Exel Supply Chain and Swindon Pressings Limited to increase the efficiency and utilization of resources employed within they operations. The theoretical introduction part is first of dealing with the terms "logistics" and "supply chain management" in the perspective of their use in the contemporary logistics theory, comparison of their meaning (are there differences) and explanation of their use in this thesis. Subsequently I am explaining "reverse logistic" and its position in the structures of corporations and logistics itself. Supply chain management and the concept of lean manufacturing combined with the six sigma approach are, from my point of view, essential for today's supplier-customer relationships. That is why those topics are examined in the last part of the theoretical chapter. Returnable packaging and the transport process are key elements of the second part -- practical part, the reengineering of logistics processes which occurred at Swindon Pressings Limited. The aim of this thesis is to analyze the give problem, develop problem solving options and critically comment them. Finally choose one of the options, implement it and document the process of "going live".

Holman, David ; Pernica, Petr (advisor) ; Zelený, Lubomír (referee) ; Gros, Ivan (referee)
The doctoral thesis is dedicated to cost estimation analysis of mass and lean logistics system productivity including their comparison. The main focus is on methodology of cost estimation of currently used supply chains. The methodological part encompasses contemporary knowledge of productivity, philosophical background of Logistics and identification of today market conditions emphasizing the importance of knowledge as a competitive advantage. The logistics value and waste are identified as a critical aspect in analysing of productivity of current logistics system. Regarding the scope of today knowledge analysis, experimental questions and hypothesis related to utilisation and measuring efficiency lean logistics principals and tools are defined. Based on the hypothesis verification, new theory and methodology of productivity cost estimation in mass and lean logistics system applicable not only in automotive industry are established. The doctoral thesis reveals new spheres of logistics theory, scientifical research in the area of logistics systems productivity. The case of automotive supply chain supports the utilisation of proposed theory and methodology in practice.

Functions and Constructions
Materna, Pavel
The contemporary notion of functions as mappings is explained and compared with the older notion where functions were conceived of as being prescriptions. The objective character of functions is defended. The notion of constructions, as defined in transparent intensional logic, is then explained; it is shown that constructions are no mappings, so that they could be rather compared with the older, prescriptional notion. Constructions can serve as explicans of the Fregean notion of sense.

Monolog as an authentic confession in the context of the contemporary drama
Hýča, Martin ; ULLRICHOVÁ, Daria (advisor) ; VEDRAL, Jan (referee)
The thesis deals with the notion of monologue and monologicity as a peculiar means of expression of the modern drama. The concept of monologue is defined within the frame of its relation towards dialogue, in the context of theoretical thinking about drama and theater, and in terms of the application of these concepts in everyday life.It is based on the theoretical works by Jan Mukařovský and Jiří Veltruský. The concept of monologue as a lack of dialogicity is being challenged with understanding monologue as a haven of authenticity, a space for authentic testimony. Through the general reflection, thoughts are put in connection with modern drama and illustrated on examples from particular drama works. The thesis leads into a reasoning about the dialogue between the stage and the auditorium as a way-out from the monological situation on the stage.

Heterogeneous agent model with memory and asset price behaviour
Vošvrda, Miloslav ; Vácha, Lukáš
The Efficient Markets Hypothesis provides a theoretical basis on which technical trading rules are rejected as a viable trading strategy. Technical trading rules, providing a signal of when to buy or sell asset based on such price patterns to the user, should not be useful for generating excess returns. Technical traders and chartists tend to put little faith in strict efficient markets.
