Doubková, Monika ; Stellner, František (advisor) ; Kovář, Martin (referee)
I want to start my Bachelor thesis by studying of peace attempts running before USA entry in the war; by reviewing in facts USA neutrality and by inspecting USA part in these attempts and why peace negotiations came to grief. I also want to analyze the influence of President Woodrow Wilson on foreign policy within the context of peace attempts and then to outline political and economic reasons for the entry in World War I. Further I want to attend to diplomatic negotiations between United States and Austria-Hungary. I will answer the question why the attempts took place at secret negotiations of separate peace with Austria-Hungary. I will also analyze so-called 14 points of President Wilson and I will sum up its meaning for politic and economic development in the Europe. Then I will state the reasons for the turn in USA politics in the spring 1918 when the effort to conclude separate peace with Austria-Hungary were left and American support for Succession State creation was shown. My thesis is based on non-published and published sources (Archiv Ministerstva zahraničních věcí - Archive of State Department) and Czech and foreign special literature.

Using Stratego/XT for Generation of Software Connectors
Malohlava, Michal ; Ježek, Pavel (referee) ; Bureš, Tomáš (advisor)
Software connectors are used in component based systems as a special entities modeling and realizing component interactions. Besides this behavior, connectors can provide extra functionality and benefits (e.g. logging, adaptation, monitoring). This approach requires generation of connector code with respect to requirements of components, a target environment and features specified at the design stage. In this thesis we show how to extend the existing connector generator [33] by the Stratego/XT transformation engine, which includes a language for implementing program transformations and a collection of transformation tools. We use the toolset to realize a simple method of defining connector implementation, which is use as a template for a process of generation source code.

Occupation of Norway by the Nazi Germany in 1940
Přenosilová, Eva ; Nálevka, Vladimír (advisor) ; Hrbek, Jaroslav (referee)
Útok na Norsko byl první německou ofenzivní akcí, k níž došlo od přepadení Polska v září 1939. Jednalo se o realizaci jednoho z dlouhé řady plánů, vypracovaných do nejmenších detailů pečlivou německou vojenskou mašinérií. Atak, vůči němuž bylo samotné Norsko, ostatně jako mnoho jiných evropských států, naprosto bezmocné a jímž byla Velká Británie přelstěna a překvapena na jednom ze svých možných citlivých míst. Byl předzvěstí neutuchající touhy Třetí říše po nových výbojích, podřízení si dalších území a rozsévání nacistické ideologie. Cílem mé rigorózní práce je rozebrat příčiny a průběh vylodění německých jednotek na norském pobřeží v dubnu roku 1940 a následnou okupaci tohoto státu. Hlavním úkolem je analyzovat okolnosti, kvůli kterým se Norsko stalo atraktivním pro německou i britskou stranu. Proč se oba protivníci snažili ovládnout tuto nepříliš bohatou zemi? Proč byla pro ně tak výhodná? A jaké strategické úvahy hrály hlavní roli v německých útočných plánech? To jsou základní otázky, jež budou řešeny v několika prvních kapitolách. Důležitou náplní mé práce bude také zmapovat politické dění v samotném Norsku, neboť události z jara 1940 jsou většinou chápány v celoevropském kontextu a jejich lokální význam se příliš nezdůrazňuje. Proto je důležité prozkoumat dopady německé akce i přímo v dotčeném...

The Content Analysis of the Magazine Ona Dnes from the Gender Perspective
Havelková, Michaela ; Pavlík, Petr (advisor) ; Valdrová, Jana (referee)
The subject of the dissertation is the content analysis of the magazine "Ona Dnes" from the gender perspective. The main intention will be to analyze the image of women in this magazine in the context of their actual position in the Czech society and underlying medial theories. The image of women how it is presented in media are i.a. the resources of the normative information about what the "right woman" should look like, what desires and ambitions she has to share. That is why the information that media produce is a sort of testimony about the status of women in society - namely from two perspectives. They are prompting the way how women understand themselves and also how they are taken by their surroundings. "Ona Dnes" presents itself as a periodical intended for the modern woman. That is why it is interesting to investigate if the presented constructions of the femininity really show any new aspects or if it is only the old content "dressed in the new coat". At the same time I try to confront my findings with the conclusions of the similar foreign studies. Very interesting theoretical question also is to what extent is the Czech medial production specific (from the gendre perspective). Especially if we talk about the magazine, that is not only some clone of the foreign periodical.
