This project has been realized at the Faculty of Information Science and Statistics at the University of Economics, Prague in support of the Czech Science Foundation since 1st January 2008. Thesis sequence to the project consists in filling of particular priorities defined for 1st year of research. Of course this fact represents determining aspect of thesis main goals definition. Firstly, carry out a research on actual level of information systems in Czech enterprises forcefully into the IS/ICT innovation. Secondly, set up working paper for presentation of continuous outcomes after the introductory phase by appearances at scientific conferences, by articles in scientific papers and by findings'publication at a website of the Czech Society for System Integration. Structure of the thesis, which consists of a theoretical and a practical part, specifies methods of goals'filling. The theoretical part represents introduction to problems -- it covers identification of key elements influencing IS/ICT innovation in surrounding of the modern knowledge economy, IS/ICT innovation classification and detailed statement of IS/ICT innovation management process, which is based on methods of strategic management process in general. The practical part gives attention to questionnaire research -- structure of the questionnaire, research methodology and answer evaluation. Contribution of the thesis, together with filling of particular goals of the research project GA201/08/663 -- Information systems innovation to support competitiveness of enterprises, consists in multidimensional view of the specific problems. IS/ICT innovation is seen not only from an enterprise informatics point of view, but also from an entire enterprise angle when economic aspect is also taken into account. This approach accents support task of informatics -- the IS/ICT contribute to the filling of enterprise's goals.

Development of concept of death
Maruščáková, Iva ; Šípek, Jiří (referee) ; Drlíková, Eva (referee)
Účelem této práce bylo jednak seznámerú s u nás málo známou problematikou vývoje konceptu smrti, jednak bylo záměrem k rú dále přispět. Tato problematika je i po 60 letech výzkumu stále v mnoha ohledech nejasnou. V rámci teoretické části je nejprve proveden souhrn poznatků týkající se problematiky, a to jak poznatků uváděných v literatuře teoretické, tak i vzešlých z publikovaných studií. Empirická část je pak rozdělena do tří oddílů, jelikož uváděný výzkum byl proveden ve třech fázích. V rámci fáze prvrú byl zjišťován průměmý věk, v jakém se u 24 dětí zahrnutých do zkoumaného vzorku (6 až 11 let) objevilo kompletní chápárú konceptu smrti na objektivrú rovině. Zároveň bylo zjišťováno, v jakém věku dochází u těchto dětí k chápárú jednotlivých aspektů uplatňujících se v rámci objektivrú roviny konceptu. Sled chápárú byl porovnáván s výsledky z podobných výzkumů. Jako metoda byl použit polostrukturovaný rozhovor nad speciálně zhotovenými obrázky. Výsledky se shodují s výsledky podobných studií ve věku vymezujícím plné pochoperú smrti na objektivrú rovině, který byl stanoven na 10 let. Rozdílem oproti podobným studiím bylo pozdější dosažerú chápárú osobrú mortality a odlišný vývojový sled jednotlivých aspektů. V rámci fáze druhé byla použita metoda obsahové analýzy textu, ve kterém se 187 dětí a dospívajících...

Extending arbitration clause on third parties in (international) commercial arbitration - selected issues in comparison of international arbitration practice and Czech law
Cienciala, René ; Pauknerová, Monika (advisor) ; Brodec, Jan (referee)
CIENCIALA, R.: Extending arbitration clause on third parties in (international) commercial arbitration - selected issues in comparison of international arbitration practice and Czech law; doctoral thesis ABSTRACT The purpose of my doctoral thesis is to analyse in the context of the (international) commercial arbitration whether at all, and if so under what conditions can an arbitration agreement be extended on third parties as its non-signatories - i.e., parties who have actually not undersigned the said agreement. The thesis is based on a critical analysis thereof by evaluating the selected and relevant case-law, both judicial and arbitral, and the key legal jurisprudence in comparison of the international arbitration practice and Czech law. The thesis consists of nine main chapters. After the introduction of the subject-matter (first chapter), I focus on a fundamental basis thereof - i.e., the doctrine of separability of an arbitration agreement from the underlying contract (second chapter), followed by a thorough analysis of a selected theoretical conceptions concerning the extension of arbitration agreement on third parties (third to seventh chapter). Accordingly, I evaluate the following issues: a succession and assignment or other transfers of rights in the third chapter, the position of guarantors in...

Establishing Old Age Pension Retirement Age Limits
Svoboda, Radovan ; Potůček, Martin (advisor) ; Hedbávný, Petr (referee)
Establishing retirement age is a key issue for each and every pension system. How this issue is resolved is palpable for every citizen and also has a major political dimension. The main reasons for increasing the retirement age - which is occurring in all European countries - are demographic development and economic factors, such as higher life expectancy, increasing the proportion of pensioners to the number of economically active people, and the growing costs for the pension system. This thesis describes the current reform steps in Europe and provides a thorough analysis of factors which are relevant for dealing with retirement age issues. The analysis is based on official statistical data, which are scrutinized even in mutual correlations. The need for an interdisciplinary approach which eliminates unilateral vistas and biased application of data lifted out of context and long-term trends is emphasized. Special attention is paid to the genesis and current solutions regarding the retirement age in the Czech Republic. This thesis offers reasoning which supports setting 65 years of age as the statutory retirement age, including the mechanism for increasing it depending on how the life expectancy factor develops. How the retirement age issues are dealt with is based on the fundamental ethical...

Zámečník, Petr ; Heřman, Jan (advisor) ; Kislingerová, Eva (referee) ; Rozsa, Zoltán (referee)
Financial intermediation due to misselling harms consumers. The work concerns to regulation of financial intermediaries and relation between financial intermediary and his or her client. The main objective is to analyze how the regulatory of commissions impact financial intermediation. The paper analyzes the current form of legal status of financial intermediation in the European Union and the Czech Republic and results in analyzing the impacts of regulatory proposals that was discussed in Chamber of Deputies Parliament of the Czech Republic. It concludes that if the proposals were accepted, it will not improve the quality of consumer protection, but even can cause damage to the client. The current legislative base moreover provides sufficient resources to prosecuting financial intermediation, which does not respect the client's interest. For analyzing the relation between financial intermediary and his or her client is developed theoretical model based on theory of games.

Consequences of assumption violations of selected statistical methods
Marcinko, Tomáš ; Blatná, Dagmar (advisor) ; Malá, Ivana (referee) ; Lukáš, Ladislav (referee)
Classical parametric methods of statistical inference and hypothesis testing are derived under fundamental theoretical assumptions, which may or may not be met in real world applications. However, these methods are usually used despite the violation of their underlying assumptions, while it is argued, that these methods are quite insensitive to the violation of relevant assumptions. Moreover, alternative nonparametric or rank tests are often overlooked, mostly because these methods may be deemed to be less powerful then parametric methods. The aim of the dissertation is therefore a description of the consequences of assumption violations concerning classical one-sample and two-sample statistical methods and a consistent and comprehensive comparison of parametric, nonparametric and robust statistical techniques, which is based on extensive simulation study and focused mostly on a normality and heteroscedasticity assumption violation. The results of the simulation study confirmed that the classical parametric methods are relatively robust, with some reservations in case of outlying observations, when traditional methods may fail. On the other hand, the empirical study clearly proved that the classical parametric methods are losing their optimal properties, when the underlying assumptions are violated. For example, in many cases of non-normality the appropriate nonparametric and rank-based methods are more powerful, and therefore a statement, that these methods are unproductive due to their lack of power may be considered a crucial mistake. However, the choice of the most appropriate distribution-free method generally depends on the particular form of the underlying distribution.

Creation and enforcement of receivables
Šebková, Tereza ; Uhlík, Milan (advisor) ; Pavla, Pavla (referee)
The thesis Creation and enforcement of receivables is divided into two parts, theoretical and practical. The theoretical part deals with legislation that currently applies to the whole issue of claims. The issue of debts and obligations is monitored in general in the framework of the Czech legal system, while not neglecting European law.
The practical part aims to identify the most common causes of claims for individual and legal persons.
The most extensive chapter of the practical part is the analysis of the recovery process of the incurred debts. There are a number of enforcement methods which are directly linked at specific conditions. Therefore the analysis of the whole process is relatively large.
The last section focuses on the success of the recovery process in the collections agency. The final section summarizes the results of the whole researched issue and analyzed causes of the fluctuations in the success of the recovery process.
