Procesní management a možnosti jeho uplatnění ve firmě Zeelandia, s.r.o.
SEDLÁČEK, Martin
Despite the process management is young, there´s many kinds of methods to analyse the firm conditions and implement the process management to the life. At the same time is possible to use some methods of value management. Some this methods were used in the firm Zeelandia, s.r.o. Zeelandia is czech-holland business firm and there was analysed the process model with all core processes and all reciprocally links. Then were choosed two most important processes (marketing, business and distribution) and it was made the redesign of it. It was made a new process called TCS (Total Customer Satisfaction) which make better situation of costumers relationship and organization of business processes. It´s very important to know it was a partial change and it must be took into the consideration. The managers must change their minds and leave the old assumptions, because this is the way to be more succesful in the future. The process management is this way.

Logistic management of transportation in a chosen manufakturing company
KOTT, Michal
The aim of the work with subject Logistical management of transport of the chosen company is making of suggestion of better solution to the system of sale and transportation from the manufactory to the customer. The chosen company deals with woodworking and production of wooden products. The introductory literature search interprets the single logistical concepts and it introduces us this work. Next comes the characteristics of the chosen company, its{\crq} history and structure. Following chapter describes the production process and products which are produced by the company. In further part I{\crq}m concerned with analysis of present condition of the sale which is realized by company stores to the customer, and with system of supply and transportation to the links of this distribution chain. The final part of this work presents proposed changes in solution of this system and information how could this system function.

Modelling runoff processes in experimental Bystřice River catchmet in the Krušné Mountains
Hasa, Martin ; Jeníček, Michal (advisor) ; Šípek, Václav (referee)
This work deals with the modelling of runoff processes in the experimental Bystřice river catchment in the Krušné Mountains. Rainfall-runoff model WaSiM (Topmodel version) was used for this purpose.Objective of this study was modelling snow accumulation and snowmelt in winter periods 2009/2010 and 2010/2011. Sensitivity analysis of TOPMODEL parameters was performed using Monte Carlo and GLUE methodology. Wasim was calibrated manually for 25 and 250 m grid scales and daily timestep. Results of simulations in both spatial scales different spatial scales differed significantly. Better performance of modelling in finer scale wasn't proved in validation of the model. Results of the simulations pointed out uncertainty in model calibration. Rasters of modeled snow water equivalent were also analyzed in selected days representing periods of snow accumulation and snowmelt. The goal was to examine the functioning of used snow model (combination of temperature index method and energy balance method) within the WaSiM frame. Finer scale raster proved to be practical for this purpose It was found that the spatial heterogeneity in the distribution of snow is determined by evapotranspiration and also by effect of radiation correction (in the case of rainfall).Influence of interception and vegetation effects on...

Robust estimators for CAPM
Steinhübelová, Monika ; Prášková, Zuzana (advisor) ; Hurt, Jan (referee)
The thesis describes the theory of capital asset pricing model (CAPM) and the issue of robust estimates. Robust methods are an effective tool to achieve better estimation relative to the classical least squares method when there is a fai- lure to assume a normal distribution of errors or in the presence of outlying obser- vations in the data. Theory of M-estimates, which is then applied in the practical part of the thesis to the multidimensional CAPM model is treated in detail. The- ory of R- and L-estimates is explained in less detail. A simulation study compares simultaneous estimates in multivariate model and estimates designed individually when applied to the model assuming the mutual independence of equations. 1

Problems and perspectives of development aid: donors and developing countries
Studecký, Jan ; Kučerová, Irah (advisor) ; Hlavičková, Zuzana (referee)
The aim of this thesis called 'Problems and perspectives of development aid: donors and developing countries' are main questions of development aid in general. Basic ideas of the whole concept are defined in the first chapter. The history of development aid and international theories' perspectives of development aid are mentioned here. The second chapter consists of classifications and characteristics of developing countries together with their capacities for integration. The donors are presented in the third chapter. The main part of the thesis is the fourth chapter in which the problems of development aid are analysed on the grounds of contemporary field literature. At the beginning of the fourth chapter the qualitative problems of development aid are analysed together with the donors' motivations for its distribution. The best possible form of development aid is discussed later on - whether it is better to provide developing countries with loans or non-repayable grants. Moreover, the coordination problems within the development aid are discussed as well as possible alternatives to development aid - such as trade. The thesis pays also attention to negative consequences of development aid. Possible solutions to the problems mentioned are sketched within each sub-chapter.

Fraktální komprese časových řad
Lysík, Martin ; Koubková, Alena (referee) ; Skopal, Tomáš (advisor)
The aim of this work was looking for single dimensional distributions of fractals in real world time series and use them to compress these time series. Usability of these principles for both lossless and lossy compression was examined. Base on the problem analysis was as first designed and implemented the basic compression algorithm. This was progressively extended with simple heuristics for better performance and also other techniques, which should have reduced its deficiencies. As the result were created two more extended compression algorithms and one algorithm with different data processing. Properties of these algorithms, output sizes and quality of decompressed data were compared on several input data and algorithms were also compared with existing compress algorithms and methods for storing time series data.

Neuroactive steroids in human physiology and pathophysiology
Kubátová, Jana ; Hill, Martin (advisor) ; Fanta, Michal (referee)
The present diploma thesis is focused on the evaluation of steroid metabolome in body fluids in human pregnancy and parturition and also concentrates on the estimation of steroids in men with epilepsy (MWE) regarding the influence of epilepsy and its treatment with antiepileptic drugs (AEDs). The results obtained eventuate to the following conclusions: 1. They support the proposition about the key importance of corticoliberin for the timing of human parturition via stimulation of the steroidogenesis in the fetal zone of the fetal adrenal (FZ). Changes in steroid levels, however, much better predict the timing of parturition than the variation in corticoliberin. 2. The distribution of isoforms of placental oxidoreductases determines the excess of oxidized forms of the sex steroids and NAS in the fetus and the excess of their reduced forms in mother. This mechanism fundamentally affects the steroid bioactivity. The results indicate the role of NAS in pregnancy sustaining, their analgesic effect around parturition and their role in the pathophysiology of postpartum blues.

"New fathers" and shared parenting
Dlasková, Julie ; Vodochodský, Ivan (advisor) ; Hájek, Martin (referee)
This thesis examines the responsibilities and roles of fathers who practise a shared care arrangement in order to get a better understanding of how traditionally perceived women's and men's tasks are divided between the father and the mother after separation. Special emphasis is given to gender equality in responsibilities and roles traditionally ascribed to women and men, to decide in which aspects, fathers who practice shared care can be seen as 'new fathers'. Previous research projects on fatherhood have indicated that in two-parent families it is typically the mother who takes the major responsibility for private sphere duties such as nurturing or domestic labour, while the father's role lies in providing and financial support (Cohen 1993) (Ranson 2001) (Segal 1990). For this reason the actual existence of the 'new father' in society has been doubted. In-depth interviews conducted in New Zealand with fathers who were in a shared care situation showed that their responsibilities and roles changed after separation and became equalized between both parents. New circumstances, a gender equal attitude and a wish to be a part of the children's lives made the fathers become responsible for nurturing aspects of parenting and day-to-day care. This thesis suggests that study of 'non-traditional' family...

Fair trade
Bělíková, Zuzana ; Semerák, Vilém (advisor) ; Benáček, Vladimír (referee)
This paper deals with the concept and current form of fair trade - business cooperation with producers in developing countries to the end of ensuring them a higher standard of living through offering them better prices for their products. The study summarizes the development of fair trade since its establishment in the forties of the last century till the latest stage, which is characterized by internationally recognized certificates being issued for products made in fair trade production. The paper also attempts to identify and clarify important moments which encouraged the implementation of this initiative. In the second part of the paper the author focuses on a more detailed analysis of how fair trade works. She identifies its differences from conventional trade and, using coffee as an example, demonstrates price differences in both distribution channels. Further she maps the volume of fair trade within Europe and over the world, arriving to the conclusion that this sector has been significantly growing in the last few years. As a determinant of the future development of fair trade, she accentuates sufficient interest of customers in fair-traded products. In the last chapter she discusses problematic areas and the critique of the concept. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

Evaluation of Selected Product Promotion within the Business Strategy
Hakenová, Markéta ; Regnerová, Olga (advisor) ; Zdeněk, Zdeněk (referee)
The diploma thesis deals with the business strategy of a chosen quarry within the scope of promotion of one concrete chosen stone product. The thesis consists of two parts - a theoretical and a practical one. The theoretical part introduces the linear information research focusing on the explanation of a definition and dividing of the quarry, granite and its mining, the concept of the company and afterwards the explanation of business strategies, strategical thinking and the company management. In the final part of the linear research the thesis deals with the product itself, its distribution and promotion. The second, practical part focuses on the chosen quarry in the Czech Republic, which is presenting one of its products. On the grounds of a questionnaire research a concrete type of promotion which should lead to better selling of the product and therefore better profitability of the company will be suggested.
