Disarmament and ensuring international security: the case of the Treaty on Conventional Armed Forces in Europe
Jančárková, Taťána ; Ondřej, Jan (advisor) ; Hýbnerová, Stanislava (referee)
DISARMAMENT AND PROVISION OF INTERNATIONAL SECURITY: THE CASE OF THE TREATY ON CONVENTIONAL ARMED FORCES IN EUROPE Since times immemorial, security has been one of the mankind's principal concerns. In the 20th century, the concept of international security entered the vocabulary of international law. International security can be defined as a "state of international relations where nor national security interests of individual states, neither international peace are challenged". The question of international security is thus inseparably linked to international peace, a connection confirmed in key documents of contemporary international law such as the United Nations Charter. Notwithstanding two approaches, to peace, negative and positive, it is evident that international security reflects the theme of war and use of force. The understanding of international security evolved in parallel with the perception of war as a means of dispute settlement. In the traditional international system, war was considered legal as long as it was justifiable. The relations between states were governed by the principle of efficiency. One of the traditional ways of strengthening a state's power and ensuring its security was to increase its levels of armaments. Gradual complexity of international relations along with...

Kohout, Pavel ; Kuncová, Martina (advisor) ; Tichý, Vladimír (referee)
The content of this bachelor thesis is formed by introduction and description of selected algorithms for seeking the shortest path in a graph, and by demonstration of theirs utilization. I concentrate on a practical problem on which I demonstrate an operation of the algorithm in respect to a traffic network with restrictions using real data. Apart from that, my target is to describe some realms where these algorithms could be used. Special emphasis is given to available solution and their problems. The goal of this thesis is to increase knowledge about these algorithms and to support their usage and further improvement.

Heart Rate Response in Newborns to Relatively Strong and Mild Trigeminal Odorants
Boušová, Jiřina ; Martinec Nováková, Lenka (advisor) ; Brothánková, Pavlína (referee)
The widely accepted view nowadays is that experiencing odours as rather pleasant or unpleasant is, to a certain degree, shaped on a daily basis through individual experience within one's culture via evaluative conditioning or, rather marginally so, via mere exposure to that certain odour. In other words, humans are not born with any fixed set of olfactory likes or dislikes but rather, they acquire them throughout their lifetime. However, olfactory sensation is not a "pure" percept, as odorant stimuli generally elicit a qualitative percept of an odorant - generated mainly by the olfactory nerve - as well as some degree of chemesthesis - a tactile confound of the odour generated mainly by the trigeminal nerve. The olfactory and trigeminal system exhibit complex interactions at both the peripheral and central level of chemosensory processing, which is also reflected in perceptual characteristics of the final percept, including perceived pleasantness (hedonics). If the olfactory contribution alone does not easily predict neonatal odour hedonics, due to newborns' limited previous exposure to chemosensory inputs, one may hypothesize that together with the strength of the trigeminal contribution they may form a significant factor affecting neonatal appetitive/aversive responses to odours. In the present...

Czechoslovak-Spanish relations 1945-1975
Vurm, Filip ; Opatrný, Josef (referee) ; Nálevka, Vladimír (advisor)
This study deals with the history of spanish - czechoslovak relations in 1945 - 1975. In this period both countries were on the others sides of Iron curtain which separes two ideological blocks created after WWII. Czechoslovakia, where the soviet influence was strong since 1945, became a communist state after coup in February 1948. Franco's regime in Spain was legitimased with the victory in the civil war over the coalition of republicans, which was dominated by the Communist party of Spain (PCE). Anticommunism was an important part of ideology of Franco' s regime and was used at the beginning of Co Id war for improving the image, which was damaged by colaboration with Axis powers during the WWII. For this reason Spain started to be asylium for exiled anticommunists from Eastem block and enabled them to lead political activities. It was also the case of Czech Zdeněk Formánek and Slovak Jozef Cieker. These two men represented different exile organization and had different points of view about Czechoslovakia. Formánek was defending democratic system of Czechoslovak 1. republic. Cieker was slovak nationalist, who wanted to destroy Czechoslovakia, to create independent Slovakia. This is why they were adversaries. They both died in the 60. when anticommunist exile m Spain had much less importace then before. In...

Raising test process maturity in IT company
Kučera, Martin ; Buchalcevová, Alena (advisor)
This thesis deals with the issue of process optimalization in the field of test discipline which is a fundamental part of software development. An approach providing improvement of test processes is applied in the environment of a test department in a selected company. Concept of raising process capability and maturity presented in CMMI model is used for this purpose. The first goal of the thesis is a provision of theoretical background devoted to software testing, process approach and capability and maturity models, that will accommodate enough with the clarity of the document text, as well as to provide insight into the whole subject. Theoretical interpretation will be compiled using on-line resources available for free, author's bachelor thesis and facts obtained through the studies and from educational materials. Attention will be focused on the definition of important facts and mutual relationship between the areas of interest. Description of initial state, changes carried out and current state of organizational structure, processes and documentation in the test department of the company was selected as a following goal. Process models consisting of diagrams, description tables and textual characteristics of identified processes will be created. Structure of documentation and of its parts will be accentuated through the description of documentation state and changes, furthermore a chronological sequence of taking the documents into practice and explanation of its importance in testing will be present. In order to offer a comprehensive view, a description of organizational structure and department member's competence will be available. As the last goal, arrangement proposal to obtain a higher process maturity and further improvement of documentation and organizational structure was chosen. Process areas and recommendation related to the processes of test discipline will be selected from the CMMI model. The selected content will be interpreted as to form a partial steps for direct use in test department. Appropriate sequence of the steps will also be set to serve well the purposes of the department. Beyond the scope of arrangement proposal, separate recommendations in areas of organizational structure, processes and documentation will be present. The thesis summarizes key facts about and arrangements made in organizational structure, processes and documentation of the test department in the selected company in the period of last two years. The contribution lies further in the creation of so far absent process models of the test department which capture the form of test processes in two points in time, and especially in the complete arrangement proposal aiming to raise process maturity and optimize organizational structure and documentation.

Technical equipment of fire protection for the decontamination of people and technology.
POJETA, Antonín
This bachelor thesis is describing problems regarding technical equipment of fire-brigade units while decontaminating citizens and technology not in the state of war within the Czech Republic territory. Based on the national conditions this thesis is specializing in the civil area. It stresses out the need of the Czech fire-brigade units to be prepared for decontamination of citizens from dangerous substances in case of emergencies, accidents but also in case of a terrorist attack. This thesis is also taking into account the possibility of setting in the special Czech Army units. Theoretical part of the bachelor thesis is an introduction into the topic, defines historical events connected with the need of decontamination and in general people's comprehension of decontamination of not only themselves but also everything around them and surrounding them. This is obviously closely connected to contamination without which the decontamination would not have been possible. Decontamination chapter contains basic definitions, defining basic procedures including chemical substances used for decontamination with connection to detection and identification of substances, definition of operation and protection area. The description of forces and equipment used for decontamination is in the last chapter of the theoretical part of the thesis. It also mentions the laws of the concerned topic and location of the above mentioned units within the Czech Republic. Research problems and procedure of the thesis has been set up in the second, practical part. Its aim is the compare two different citizen and technology decontamination techniques which are used as a part of equipment of rescue units in the Czech Republic. It is also possible for those two techniques to participate on the same emergency event and based on one-generation distance between those two techniques the main question was perfectly clear from the beginning. Is the new technology used by the Czech fire-brigade units better than the old one, or modernised technology of the Czech Army Forces, considering it as the first solution to special emergency events within all given and defined aspects? Because there are limited technical information available and also not that many units used by the Czech fire-brigade certain types of decontamination lines had to be taken out of the study, such as SDO-A, SDO-1A and SDO-Z, therefor the outcome of this thesis cannot be interpreted unambiguously. Regarding the Czech Army Forces for the research part there was only type of decontamination of citizens used and presented. The rescue teams are currently using two decontamination lines which were compared within the comparison decontamination techniques study. The Integrated Rescue System in the Czech Republic is prepared for mass citizen-and-technology decontamination in both, material and educational, ways based on technical data given in the discussions present in the research part of the thesis. The concerned workers have also mentioned that there are specific trainings missing to crosscheck the whole technology within extreme conditions. We also came across the knowledge of a lot of problematic parts and incomplete systems, this information was given to us directly by the field-workers. The findings based on the research are presented at the end of the thesis as recommendations for practical use and improvement for current situation in case of mass-decontamination in the Czech Republic.

KRIZE INSTITUCE MANŽELSTVÍ V nN\ts'1d ~ÁJlADNtSPOLECNOSTI SE,o; ZAMERENÍM NA SITUACI V cEsKi REPUBLICE Diplomová práce Resumé Problematika krize instituce manželství patrí k nejzávažnejším problémum dnešní spolecnosti a naší doby. Vzhledem k tomu, že narustá pocet rozvodu a s tím související pocet nevlastních a neúplných rodin, snižuje se snatecnost, pribývají alternativní formy rodinného usporádání, dochází ke snížení porodnosti apod., je treba rešení této problematiky venovat patricnou pozornost. Zminovaná problematika se týká celé spolecnosti a pochopitelne rovnež i církve, nebot práve církev je obhájkyní a zastánkyní tradicního pojetí rodiny založeného práve na manželství. Prestože církev musí nejspíš prijmout skutecnost, že vedle tradicního modelu manželství budou ve spolecnosti existovat i jiné formy partnerského usporádání, je jejím úkolem snažit se klasický model manželství muže a ženy obhajovat. Jako jediná úcinná forma se pravdepodobne jeví prevence formou pastorace. Církev v rámci své pastoracní cinnosti muže doprovázet jednotlivce i páry, jež se ocitli v nestandardních životních situacích, a rovnež muže doprovázet krestanské manžele, kterí pak následne mohou být svedectvím pro celou spolecnost.
