Clipping from the word-formation, word-class, stylistic/register, semantic and translational perspectives
Skala, Richard ; Čermák, Jan (referee) ; Klégr, Aleš (advisor)
The analysis confirms the general findings of the authors dealing with the process of clippings. The trends which the thesis confirms are: Back-clipping is the most frequent type of clipping, the other types are rare. Clippings are mostly created from nouns. Plain clippings are mostly mono- or disyllabic and they mostly respect the syllable divisions in the base. This means that plain clippings are mostly created from the first syllable of the base. Clippings are mostly colloquial/informal. What the thesis adds is the precise expression of the proportions of the individual features and also the identification of the different motivation behind the creation of embellished clippings. In other words, the analysis shows that embellished clippings differ from plain clippings not only on formal grounds, i.e. the presence of the suffix, but also in other features: embellished clippings have more often an adjectival base, they are more often stylistically marked, more often slang, more often regionally specific and less often specific for a subject field. This shows that embellished clippings are trendy, created to attract attention, part of the substandard language and that the ingroup status is even intensified in embellished clippings. Medial clipping, as a minor type of clipping is established alongside...

Fractal Viewer
Štefan, Petr ; Obdržálek, David (referee) ; Patočka, Mikuláš (advisor)
Fractal explorer is a program which enables user to explore Mandelbrot set and several other types of fractals and offers real time zooming in and out of the selected area. Program automaticaly increases the number of iterations it uses for computations to prevent detail loss with higher magnifications. Fractal explorer has several color schemes to color the calculated image. The colored image can be altered by several simple graphical filters. Resulting image can be saved to hard drive in PNG, BMP or JPG formats. Another function of the program is an ability to render current image to hard drive in specified resolution, the rendered image is antialiased to increase the visual quality.

This master thesis deals with the software support of one Financial and Property Analysis of Municipalities (FAMA). The co-author of this method is Doctor Petr Toth from the Institute of Public Administration and Regional Development at University of Economics in Prague. The method is supported by Microsoft Access database application and two C++ applications ArisDestiller and Prognoza at present time.

Large-area Protected Areas of Nature in Western Bohemia and Eastern Bavaria from Legal Perspective
Staněk, Lucián ; Damohorský, Milan (advisor) ; Stejskal, Vojtěch (referee)
The topic of this thesis is Large-area protected areas of nature in western Bohemia and eastern Bavaria. Within this topic, the thesis focuses mainly on less strict categories of these areas, i.e. on Czech landscape protected areas ("chráněná krajinná oblast") and Bavarian nature parks ("Naturpark"). From each of these two categories, I chose one particular representative area to deal more in detail with. These representative areas are Český les Landscape Protected Area and the neighbouring Bavarian Nördlicher Oberpfälzer Wald (Northern Upper Palatinate Forest) Nature Park. The aim of this thesis is to describe, analyse and compare the aforementioned protected areas, and - as the result - to evaluate the level of protection of these on both sides of the Czech-Bavarian border, as well as to potentially find inspirations for improving the relevant Czech legislation. The thesis is composed of seven Parts, whereas Parts Three to Six are further divided into chapters and (except Part Six) subchapters. The first - introductory - Part is followed by Part Two, geographically determining the region subject to survey. Part Three contains a general treatise on legal regulation of large-area protected areas of nature in the Czech Republic and in the Federal Republic of Germany, including the Free State of...

These two powers are seen to play a major role in formation of relationships of amity and enmity, of cooperation and hostility in European regional security supercomplex of which, Slovakia is inseparable part. To describe and conduct analysis, author applies theories and analytical tools formulated by Copenhagen School. Most used were analytical frameworks and concepts of securitization, regional security complexes and sectoral approach to security.
