Study of Optical Properties of Metallic Structures and Their Applications in Nano-Optics
Neuman, Tomáš ; Munzar,, Dominik (referee) ; Kalousek, Radek (advisor)
Interaction of metallic structures with electromagnetic radiation is a living topic of near-field optics including plasmonics and nanophotonics. The field-matter interaction treated on the subwavelength scale opens the path to a wide range of applications, among others to different variants of the surface enhanced spectroscopy. In this thesis we theoretically describe how the near-field properties of the metallic structures can be accessed by a probe of near-field scanning optical microscope. Formation of the signal in the near-field microscopy utilizing weakly interacting probes is discussed. Further, we elucidate the mechanism of the surface enhanced infrared spectroscopy. We utilize a model example of linear dipole antennas interacting with sample structures. A close connection is found between the spectroscopic signal and signal of the scattering type near-field optical microscopy.

QoS in UMTS
Kavan, Radovan ; Hanus, Stanislav (referee) ; Kejík, Petr (advisor)
This thesis treats of QoS (Quality of Service) in UMTS system. The term quality of service is frequently used, recently, however not only in computer networks, but also more and more in mobile networks also. Present system of 2nd generation (2G) GSM enables only limited exploitation of QoS function. System UMTS is a system of 3rd generation (3G) already and contains quality of service in greater measure which is ensured with number of algorithms and functions. Individual QoS functions enable effective utilization of radio interface, support maintenance of planned coverage and offer high spectral efficiency. Functions that cater to quality of service are called RRM functions (Radio Resource Management). There exist five basic functions in UMTS system that are Admission control (AC), Power control (PC), Load control (LC), Handover control (HC) and Packet scheduler (PS). These functions are responsible for control of network access, control of power, control of network load, control of handover and packet (bit rate) scheduling. Last three functions are usually collectively designated as Congestion control, control of network overload. UMTS layer model, differentiation of services, traffic classes and 3GPP concept are also discussed. In thesis the attention is piad to Admission control algorithm – control of network access – in the uplink direction and to different ways of load (in the cell) modeling. Individual approaches are simulated in MATLAB. A possibility of using algorithm in the real system is discussed in conclusion.

Beyond (classical) adaptation
Jindřichová, Markéta ; Mravcová, Marie (advisor) ; Petříček, Miroslav (referee)
Film adaptations are often confronted with criticism that they distort, reduce or picture inaccurately the original. The film was and often still is traditionally treated as an illustration of literary original, and thereby is a priori doomed to be always worse than the original. In my work I focus on such kind of film adaptation, which is an original piece of art and which doesn´t sponge on the literary model, but is rather a mutation in another (audiovisual) media. On example of three specific adaptations, which in my opinion break these criteria, I want to show how filmmakers transform the original text into the peculiar and original film work. The three mentioned adaptations fully utilize their potential (i.e. the possibility of a new organization of time, space, rhythm, character, etc.) and also represent a certain degree of metamorphosis, interpretations, updates, and independence from the original text.

Analysis of eating habits in people with hypertension with the help of NutriDan programme.
MATOUŠKOVÁ, Eva
Hypertension, i.e. elevated blood pressure, ranks among the commonest civilization diseases affecting heart and blood vessels. The incidence rate covers about 25% of adults and it may have deadly consequences. The first step in treating the condition is a change in the way of life. The patients are encouraged to stop smoking; to take reasonable exercise; to reduce stress and, last but not least, to eat healthily. A diet can be assessed using NutriDan, a software leaning on a database of hundreds of foodstuffs having well-verified nutritional values. Health-care professionals can use the software tool to easily calculate the average daily intake of individual components present in a patient's diet. The tool considers the patient's age, physical activity, and the current nutrition. In compiling the paper the author used the software to analyze the nutritional habits of hypertonic patients. The research objective was pursued with reliance on the methods of qualitative survey and interrogation, using the technique of semi-controlled interview to be then made into casuistries. Contacted were hypertonic patients in České Budějovice - with a half of the respondents below 63 years of age and the other half over 63. To identify the quality and quantity of food, the author analyzed their nutritional records (their diet) for 7 days and evaluated the findings with the NutriDan tool. The survey covered 14 respondents whose nutritional records were analyzed to answer the researched question asking whether the daily volumes of energy, sodium, fats and cholesterol that the hypertonic patients received through their diet corresponded with standards recommended by the NutriDan software. The analyses showed that it was not the case. Results arrived at in the paper can be instrumental in mapping the issue of observing the diet provisions in hypertension patients, while the deficiencies found could be utilized to streamline the process of education followed to foster healthy life style.

The limits of narrative: La última niebla - lyrical novel by María Luisa Bombal
Bahnerová, Helena ; Housková, Anna (advisor) ; Sánchez Fernández, Juan Antonio (referee)
This work focuses on finding instruments which confer a lyrical character to the novel La última niebla of the Chilean writer María Luisa Bombal. The study is based on Emil Staiger's observations about basics concepts of poetic. Specifically, the work treats his concept of lyricism. B asically, the Swiss literary theorist underscored the role of the author, which must necesarilly cancel a distance between himself and his creation in order to achieve lyrical tone. All in all, this and other informations about the lyrical prose of the 20th century prove that lyricism depends especially on the representation of the entity of narrator. María Luisa Bombal as a cosmopolitan writer managed with her production to introduce new style of writing in backward Chilean literary scene. Obvisouly, the p resence of innovative elements such as a utilization of dream poetic or natural symbology takes part in final lyrical tone of the novel La última niebla, however, the most essential renovations within her production are the specific concept of narrator and narrative perspective.

Skočková, Sylva ; Radvanová, Senta (advisor) ; Dvořák, Jan (referee)
RESUMÉ The paper deals with the question of maintenance duties both of parents towards their children and of children towards their parents. The core problem of maintenance determination rests on utilization of relatively vague terms and necessity of consideration for too many factors influencing the result. The author's task lies in clarification of this intricate process and in identification of variables entering into this relation. The text consists of 13 parts, each referring to particular point of maintenance duties. The opening chapter mentioning the concept of maintenance itself is followed by the section treating sources of law within the framework the Czech legal order while taking into account previous legal development in Czechoslovakia. The subsequent part describes historical development of the maintenance duty, which could be traced back to the ancient Rome empire. The next heading is dedicated to general characteristic of maintenance duty. The fifth chapter analyses maintenance duty of parents towards their children, where one can identify related important features such as subjects of the relationship, duration, restoring, possibilities to change prescribed alimony, scope of defined alimony etc. Consequently, maintenance duty of children towards their parents is examined reflecting...
