Comparison of standards for process modeling
Kalina, Jaroslav ; Řepa, Václav (advisor) ; Smolík, Jan (referee)
The scope of this thesis is the field of business process modeling and additionally the usability of business process models in areas like conceptual analysis of IS/ICT, business process reengineering and business process management. For the purpose of evaluation of the usability of current standards for business process modeling, an framework for comparison of various characteristics of these standards is proposed. This thesis has two aims. Primarily, to develop an approach for evaluation of business process modeling standards, and as a secondary aim, to apply this evaluation model onto a set of selected standards for business process modeling and thus perform a comparison of these standards. The evaluation model has two main components. The first part is to create a set of characteristics which represent two existing points of view onto the exploitability business process modeling (e.g. during the development of IS/ICT and during BPR/BPM1). During the identification of particular characteristics, a research into the related literature and other sources has been performed to provide a sufficient basis for this activity. The second part of the developed approach is to the application of PEMM (Process & Enterprise Maturity Model), which was developed by Dr. M. Hammer for the purpose os auditing the maturity of business processes. Both of these parts are then put together into one evaluation framework. Based on information gathered from the respective specifications of particular standards, related literature and articles, we've performed an application of this evaluation framework on three standards for business process modeling: EPC, BPMN and IDEF3. The benefits of this thesis could be seen as a creation of a very own approach for evaluation of business process modeling standards. Additionally by performing the comparison of these three standards for business process modeling we've created a guideline which could be there fore applied by the potential reader during the decision making of what standard to use for business process modeling (in the context of expected purpose of this modeling).

Modeling projects work
Sekerka, Radko ; Burian, Jan (advisor) ; Kvasnička, Michal (referee)
In this thesis we present model of the human work process on projects using multi-agent model. Within the project management plan is carried out comparisons with the fact not only in the context of subsequent checks, but also in the course of the project. One of the most item is cost of human resources. To increase efficiency and control over the actual cost to introducing a range of organizations link the accounting system to a system of reporting work. Such a system registry of the work is not only complex, but also demanding in terms of managing the time gap between the creation of estimates and their own work. In general, there may be several variants of complications such as delay work on the project because of inaccurate estimates of job performance and therefore insufficient funds in the accounts sections and stages of the project. The aim of this work is to find the characteristics of such projects for which this system work. In the first part we are addressed basic theoretical assumptions for modeling work in the field of project management and multi-agent modeling. Next part relates to the creation of multi-agent model, including detailed characteristics and verification. At the end of this research are described a several experiments with the model and analysis results.

The Modeling of selected processes in the Prague 4 City District Office
Gerlický, Filip ; Říhová, Zora (advisor) ; Novák, Miloslav (referee)
This work consists of theoretical and practical part. The theoretical part provides an introduction to the problems of public administration and local government in particular. It deals with municipalities, their legislation (Act on Municipalities and the City of Prague), types, responsibilities, authorities and the difference between self-dependent and devolved matters. It puts municipality into the context of eGovernment, presents two types of classification of eGovernment and highlights the specifics of administrative duties to which belongs also an electronic identity card (eOP) issue. It deals with a history and a purpose of the identity cards and with requirements they are connected to. A large part discusses the eOP, its differences from previous types, functionality, advantages and disadvantages that it brings, and its safety. It describes the procedures and the requirements for its issuance, proposes some improvements and looks into its future. It doesn't forget to evaluate the project of the eOP. It briefly mentions the process modeling. In the practical part is created a new classification of the services of eGovernement and outlines probably the first complex methodology for such classification. In here there is developed an extensive detailed process model describing the issuance of the eOPs in the Prague 4 City District office, measured this service and evaluated its effectiveness. Then survey focused on citizens' views on electronic identity cards and on the procedure of their issuance is processed.

Process management principles, procedures and tools application in software development project management
Oškrdal, Václav ; Doucek, Petr (advisor) ; Pour, Jan (referee) ; Hřebíček, Jiří (referee) ; Závodný, Peter (referee)
The main goal of this dissertation thesis is to design and verify a new concept of process management principles, procedures and tools application, utilizable in the software development project management field. Emphasis is placed on creating a general (i.e. generally usable) concept, derived from solid theoretical background and suitable for further expansion and modifications. The theoretical part of the thesis has two main chapters. In the "Process management" chapter, the individual derived principles (Effectiveness, Added value, Coherence, Portability, Adequate standardization, Measurability, Clarity, Integration, Accountability, Continuous improvement) and procedures (Initiation, Identification, Definition, Validation, Implementation, Revision) are described and interconnected into an integrated concept, usable for the introduction and development of process management in the organization, supported by appropriate ICT tools (mainly from four selected areas -- Modeling and Simulation, Performance measurement, Change management, Administration). In the "Project Management" chapter, the project management area is embedded in the broader context of a process-driven organization in line with modern models of strategic ICT governance and ICT services management. The main dimensions of project management as well as the process approach to project management, which helps to bridge the gap between unique/temporary projects and repeatable/stable processes, are described. Basis for the normative project processes design in the following part of the thesis is set by the evaluation of selected models of the project life cycle and project management methodologies. The practical part of this thesis is basically a verification of the concept, described in the theoretical chapters. Firstly, an original project management methodology, suitable for deriving process model of the subject area, is presented. On this basis -- and by using the previously described principles, procedures and process management tools -- the major artifacts of a reference project processes model are elaborated (such as Conceptual model of the subject area, List of events and natural processes, Process pyramid, Process model, Organization model, Indicators pyramid or RACI matrix of roles and processes/indicators /SLAs; setup of selected process model is also verified experimentally by simulations). Critical evaluation of the presented model is an important input for the final assessment of the thesis goals' achievement and proposal of further research fields.

Risk analysis of hazardous substances resulting from burning tires.
MATĚJOVSKÁ, Petra
This paper deals with the current world-wide problem of excessive production of tires, especially in the context of emerging high-volume waste after the end of their life. It aims to map the possibilities of how to dispose of old tires and to assess their applicability in practice. Another task is to compare the tire production process with how the tires are treated as a waste product in the Czech Republic over the last nine years. Finally, it is discussed tire fires in the Czech Republic between 2006-2011, which have been dangerous for local residents and the environment. Statistics of production of used tires and treatment with them have shown that in recent years there has been a large increase in both the production of tires, as well as methods and ways to effectively get rid of them once they become waste. The next section outlines the methods which the loading and removal of tires occur, and which should be avoided in the future. The last part contains statistics on tire fires in the last 6 years in the Czech Republic and an evaluation of the most endangered sites and the most common causes of these fires.

Antifungal Drug Discovery: Focus on Incrustoporin Derivatives
Silva, Luis André Vale ; Buchta, Vladimír (advisor) ; Heidingsfeld, Olga (referee) ; Hamal, Petr (referee)
1 CONCLUSIONS In the context of Medical Mycology today, the development of new more effective antifungal agents is a priority. In fact, there are still only about six drugs in use to treat invasive fungal infections, concretely the polyene amphotericin B (including its new lipidic formulations), the antimetabolite flucytosine, the triazoles fluconazole, itraconazole, and voriconazole, and the echinocandin caspofungin. Simultaneously, the incidence of invasive opportunistic mycoses has been increasing steadily with the increasing number of immunocompromised patients, caused both by HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) infection and AIDS and the development of medical techniques, particularly referring to oncology or transplant patients. In this setting, the relevance of the development of new antifungal agents and, hence, our work presented here, is easily understandable. The group of the acyloxymethylated incrustoporin derivatives is now in a higher stage of development, after being previously studied concerning structure-antifungal activity relationship and tuning of antifungal activity. Our work has shown the best derivatives from the group, compounds LNO6-22, LNO15-22, and LNO18-22, to have broad spectrum in vitro antifungal activity and high potency, inhibiting growth of a variety of pathogenic yeasts and...

Bauhaus school and reformal pedagogic in the contex of social development in the end of 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century
Valenta, Martin ; Pelánová, Anita (advisor) ; Helus, Zdeněk (referee)
The theses "Bauhaus school and reformal pedagogics in the context of social development in the end of 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century" looks for the answer for the question if it is possible to consider Bauhaus pedagogics as a part o f a reform pedagogic movement. In the first two chapters are explained political, social and mental reality of the german empire in the time of Wilhelm the II. and the pedagogics of the 19th century. The third chapter deals with reform schooling and the atmosphere of the cultural pesimism of the "fin de siecle". The analysis itself of the Bauhaus pedagogics and its comparison with reform pedagogics on the examples of M.Montessori, R. Steiner and G. Kerchensteiner are found in the chapter four. The conclusion compares both phenomena and answers the introductory questions. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)
