Šámal, Petr ; Bydžovská, Lenka (referee) ; Prahl, Roman (advisor)
The thesis consists of three chapters, which aim to describe and summarize the pivotal themes, important for the history of female art in Bohemia, i. e. questions of their origin, art education, placement and reception of their art in the temporary criticism. The first chapter inquires into forms of the artistic education according to the kinds of the social origin of the women. Separately it describes the issues of education for professional women artists and women of noble birth. A special attention is paid to the theme of an organized training in visual arts, which was provided by private arts schools at first. An important position among them had the school of drawing for ladies, founded by the painter Amalia Manes in 1853. The essay suggests some circumstances realting to this private school. In the 1860's the art education went through a considerable progress, when a new forms of art teaching were created, based mostly on arts and crafts aims. Considering the fact they arouse about twenty years before establishment the Arts and crafts school in Prague, where they on a relative high level. They also had a particular standing at that time in general. The Industrial School for Girls founded in 1865, was probably the first institution of its kind in the Habsburg Monarchy. The Trade and Industrial School...

The Uniform of the Red Army: Military Attire of the Ranks and the NCOs 1936 - 1946
Prior, Tomáš ; Tumis, Stanislav (advisor) ; Ulvr, Michal (referee)
(in English): Second World War is a very well researched conflict favoured by historians and non-professional enthusiasts alike. Despite its popularity even this subject leaves many areas blank. Areas which were either completely omitted by researches or not studied thoroughly enough. One of these areas is a production technology of Red Army military uniforms. The aim of the thesis is not to merely describe the patterns of military uniforms but to outline the subject with regard to textile industry and chemistry (dyeing). After the critical evaluation of accessible information thesis was based exclusively upon primary sources - manufacturing instructions of the period and specialized literature. All secondary sources were deliberately excluded. The findings proved that specific manufacturing instruction of the period enables the researcher to produce virtually any garment. At the same time established deficiencies are not insolvable. The question which shade of khaki was used in dyeing fabric for uniforms still remains unanswered. A lot of facts established in discipline of textile materials and textile colours are contradictory to generally accepted image of the Read Army soldier which has been formed by cinematography and secondary literature for decades.

Family policy in the Czech Republic and its role in the reconciliation of work and family life
Heilová, Iva ; Krebs, Vojtěch (advisor) ; Stočková, Olga (referee)
Reconciling work and family life has been the topic of intense discussion in Europe over the past decade, in large part because the continent's declining and aging population makes it necessary to attract the widest possible range of European society into the labor force. One of the available segments comprises mothers and fathers with very young children. This thesis analyzes the formulation of family policy in the Czech Republic and its support in the aarea of reconciling family and professional life. The analysis herein is based on a comparison of international practices. The goal of this work is to evaluate the formulation of the relevant instruments of family policy that are intended to help people successfully balance family and work.

Fantasy and Science-fiction in Novels for Children using German Texts, Working with a Literary Text with Children for Teaching
Sánchezová, Karmen ; Bučková, Tamara (advisor) ; Švermová, Dagmar (referee)
Diese Diplomarbeit besteht aus zwei Teilen, aus dem Theoretischen und aus dem Praktischen. Das Thema der Arbeit lautet Zu den phantastischen und sci-fi Motiven im modernen Kinderroman an den Beispielen des deutschsprachigen Schaffens. Im ersten Teil setze ich mich mit der Tatsache auseinander, ob Anwendung von diesen Motiven eine große Role für die Beliebtheit der Texte spielt, in denen sie benutzt werden. Dann beschäftige ich mich auch damit wie diese Motive von den Kindern wahrgenommen und interpretiert werden. Zuletzt habe ich mir auch die Frage gestellt, wie Texte die diese Motiven beinhalten Kinder im alletäglichen Leben beeinflussen. Das Interessante an diesen Motiven ist vor allem das, dass sie in allen Genrevarianten der Kinderprosa Vorkommen. Sie verursachen in den Texten sogenannte leere Stellen, die dann zur Polyvalenz der Texte fuhren. Deswegen sind diese Texte nicht nur für Kinder sondern auch für Erwachsene interessant. So nähert sich die Kinderliteratur der Allgemeinen. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

Practical use of multiple criteria decision making methods to evaluate commercial chains, cheese category, in Czech Republic
Slavík, Vladimír ; Kuncová, Martina (advisor) ; Skočdopolová, Veronika (referee)
The subject of diploma thesis is the evaluation of commercial chains, cheese category, in Czech Republic. The methodology is based on the multicriteria rating of alternatives. In the evaluation of commercial chains may take into account the large number of criteria are used, here are 26, which evaluates 14 alternatives (stores). To evaluate the commercial chains are used preferences of general public and experts. The main objective of the diploma thesis is to determine which store is the best for customers (general public) and for professionals, and then to compare the results.Secondary objective is to explore the possibility of using the multicriteria rating of alternatives methods in praxis.

ERP Systems For the Tertiary Sector of Economy - PSA
Hájek, Martin ; Mildeová, Stanislava (advisor) ; Benešovský, Martin (referee)
The main goal of this thesis is to introduce philosophy of PSA (Professional Services Automation) solutions, their benefits, structure and possible future and to describe, why and how were PSA systems developed. Inasmuch as PSA systems originally evolved from ERP systems and their current progress is very similar to the late progress of ERPs, I decided to focus my analyses on ERP systems and to use the relevant conclusions on PSA solutions. The opening chapter of the thesis (chapter 3) introduces and describes philosophy and history of ERP systems, chapter 4 then describes PSA solutions. The fifth part is addressed to the current ERP market, from which a picture of future PSA market can be derived. Practical part 6, which I consider as the primary contribution of this thesis, analyzes some dimensions of PSA in the light of future evolution of this kind of solution. It also defines some factors, that may help to increase positive effects of PSA solutions to service-oriented companies. The thesis is then closed with an example of a real PSA implementation on an engineering company (chapter 7).

Parallelisation of Ultrasound Simulations on Intel Xeon Phi Accelerator
Vrbenský, Andrej ; Hrbáček, Radek (referee) ; Jaroš, Jiří (advisor)
Nowadays, the simulation of ultrasound acoustic waves has a wide range of practical usage. As one of them we can name the simulation in realistic tissue media, which is successfully used in medicine. There are several software applications dedicated to perform such simulations. k-Wave is one of them. The computational difficulty of the simulation itself is very high, and this leaves a space to explore new speed-up methods. In this master's thesis, we proposed a way to speed-up the simulation based on parallelization using Intel Xeon Phi accelerator. The accelerator contains large amount of cores and an extra-wide vector unit, and therefore, is ideal for purpose of parallelization and vectorization. The implementation is using OpenMP version 4.0, which brings some new options such as explicit vectorization. Results were measured during extensive experiments.

Nurses and the way they take care of their own health and how it influences their treatment of patients.
LUKEŠOVÁ, Renata
The title of this work is: Nurses and their taking care of their own health and how it influences the level of professional healthcare provided. I have outlined three objectives and four hypotheses. First objective was to find out how the heath state of the nurses in Tábor hospital (nemocnici Tábor a.s., Tábor hospital further on) can influence the way in which they take care of their patients. Second objective was to find out how the nurses from Tábor hospital take care of their own health and the third objective is: To examine what patients from Tábor hospital think about nurses who work even with an ailment of a minor kind. With regards to these objectives I have outlined four hypotheses. When taking care of their patients, the nurses from Tábor hospital are not influenced by their own health issues. The nurses from Tábor hospital know ways how to improve their heath state. Patients from Tábor hospital consider it improper for those nurses who suffer even from a minor ailment to go on with their jobs. Patients from Tábor hospital consider nurses` professional occupation as being irreplaceable. The research was performed through surveys handed out to two research sets comprised of nurses and patients from Tábor hospital. Based on the research results I have confirmed all hypotheses and consequently all outlined objectives. This profession affects not only nurses{\crq} physical health but their mental health as well. Therefore it is necessary to coach the nurses on possible ways how to treat patients properly and about further risk associated with this working occupation. Furthermore, nurses should follow a healthy life style. This means enough of sleep, a healthy diet, prevention of the burn-out syndrome, and prevention of different ailments through prophylactic check-ups etc. I would like to have this work published in nurses{\crq} specialized magazines.
