Next one is to chart the state of implementation of this type of software into Public Administration field in the Czech Republic and abroad. Last objective is to project application architecture with usage of open source software to particular condition of The University of Economics, Prague. These goals was achieved by studying many information resources, discussions with specialist, including of representatives of the state, about the given topics, and further analyse of current conditions of The University of Economics, Prague. Benefits of this thesis are especially compact view on open source software, further the survey of opinions of representatives of state, representatives of towns and next specialists on this type of software a its possibilities of usage in public administration.

This time was characterized by growing differentiation between regions. This evoked interest about rise and progress of periphery. The theoretical part consists of important concepts, major theoretical approaches, policies and principles, which define the periphery of concern. Also development of interest in the Czech Republic is described as well as situation in foreign countries and time comparison. Practical knowledge of methods in the Czech Republic are summarized in conclusion of the thesis.

Use of metaphor in school education
Jílek, Štěpán ; Koťa, Jaroslav (advisor) ; Kasíková, Hana (referee)
The main aim of the work is to clarify the contemporary conception of metaphor and to find ways of its use in school education on this basis. In the first part, metaphors are shown as a common element of human understanding of the world. The basic terminology, principles and categories of metaphor are explained and metaphors are distinguished from similar phenomenons such as analogies, similes and metonymies. Then general communication and cognitive options and functions of metaphors are explained and conclusions arising from researches into child comprehension and production of metaphor are introduced. In the second part, opportunities of application in school education are considered. Metaphors are assumed to be a specific method which can be used to achieve an array of teaching aims. Conditions of this use are considered in the light of subject matters and relation between a teacher and a student. Potential risks of metaphors used in school education are introduced and treated. In conclusion, metaphors are pondered in context of metacogniton and two basic metacognitive strategies are described illustratively which also serves as a methodical illustration for teachers.

Anthropogenesis of consciousness
Bažant, Jan ; Kebza, Vladimír (referee) ; Šípek, Jiří (advisor)
What is a development of consciousness of modern human being, i.e. with species Homo sapiens sapiens? The beginning step alone, how to define the inquired object in the research, brings considerable problems and discrepancies in different conceptions and approaches, there is the reason why it is important to answer another question at the first. How to qualify consciousness? In the part "Theories of consciousness ", in the chapter "Formation the term" I try to give a brief succession of particular conceptions about consciousness and a view of contemporary theories of consciousness posted up with the critical reflection. I am interested especially of the development so in the chapter "Development of consciousness" I summarize the up to now findings about evolution of hominids till the top species Homo sapiens. I mention some theoretical approaches there and critical survey of terms. In the last chapter of the first part, I inquire after reasons to qualify the culture as potential equivalent of consciousness. I appoint the culture as an expression of consciousness in outer world that is comparable as well as deducible into history and pre-history. What is possible to deduce from consciousness is possible generally to describe as products of psychic behavior (not only in pure behavioral sense).

Drinková, Zuzana ; Mlejnek, Josef (advisor) ; Cabada, Ladislav (referee)
The Republic of Macedonia gained its independence peacefully in November 1991 and was the only one ofthe former Yugoslav republic that got its independence peacefully. The peacefully transformation of Macedonia was preceded by an uneasy period of democratic consolidation. Among the different factors that negatively influenced succesful consolidation were - the struggle for the international recognition of the country, the Greek diplomatic and economic pressure for the republic to change its name, the disruption of the economy due to the UN sanctions on Macedonia's main trade partner Serbia, and the Kosovo refugee crisis. None of these factors hadn't a such strong importance for the consolidation of Macedonia as the disputing of character of the state by Macedonian Albanians. Ethnic Albanians were according to Constitution relegated to the category of a minority, just like Turks, Vlachs, Roma and others. Ethnic Albanians disagreed with these status of minority. Their activities were directed towards the achievement of a different constitutional status for their ethnic group - redefinition of the Republic of Macedonia as a bi-national state, affirmation of the Albanian language as a second official language, education in the mother tongue on all levels, proportionate representation of Albanians in all public...

communication strategy of newly started media projects
Černá, Michaela ; Jirák, Jan (advisor) ; Trampota, Tomáš (referee)
This paper focuses on three new Czech media projects founded in 2014: news web Echo24.cz, a monthly Reporter magazin and a video portal DVTV. More specifically, it describes their creation, which took place as a consequence of the changes in the media market in the Czech Republic in the years 2013-2014. These were mainly changes in ownership structure as Andrej Babis acquired the publishing house Mafra and changes brought about by the crisis of the Czech Television channel. This paper maps out the establishment of new media projects and their positioning in an already competitive environment by observing the communication strategy of these projects. On the basis of predefined criteria it analyses the initial launch campaigns, the means used for marketing and the communication with the public during the first year after the projects were launched. This analysis is complemented by interviews with the authors of the projects: Dalibor Balsinek (Echo24.cz), Robert Casensky (Reporter magazin) and Jan Rozkosny (DVTV). On the basis of this analysis a comparison of the projects and their communication strategies is carried out. The obtained results can be useful in further research of the evolution of these media projects.

Real-Time Rendering of a Scene With Many Pedestrians
Pfudl, Václav ; Milet, Tomáš (referee) ; Herout, Adam (advisor)
The aim of this thesis was to implement a software that would be able to render, simulate and record a scene with walking pedestrians in real-time, with emphasis on rendering level of realism. The output of the application could serve as an input test data for people counting systems or similar systems for video recognition. The problem was divided into three major subproblems: character animation, artificial intelligence for character movement and advanced rendering techniques. The character animation problem is solved by the skeletal animation of the model. To achieve the characters moving in a scene autonomously path finding(A* algorithm) and group behaviors(steering behaviors) were implemented. Realism in a scene is added by implemented methods such as normal-mapping, variance shadow-mapping, deffered rendering, skydome, lens flare effect and screen space ambient occlusion. Optimaliaztion of the rendering was implemented using octree data structure for space partitioning. Rendering stage of a scene can be easily parametrized through implemented GUI. Implemented application provides the user with easy way of setting a scene with walking pedestrians, setting its visualization and to record the result.
