Sobotková, Magda ; Pernica, Petr (advisor) ; Jirsák, Petr (referee)
The Master Thesis deals with offshoring and its logistic requirements. The first part of thesis characterizes terms as outsourcing, offshoring and offshore outsourcing. The main reasons for foreign production are seeking of resources (typically low cost labour) and expansion into new markets. Benefits and risks of offshoring are analyzed in the thesis, as well as criteria for selection of suitable host destination. Often overlooked impacts of globalization on integrated supply chain are also considered in this thesis. Central and Eastern Europe is one of important offshoring regions. CEE offers relatively cheap and qualified labour. However, its main benefit is its small geographical distance from Western Europe. The costs of servicing markets at Western Europe from CEE are much lower compared to servicing these markets from Asia.

Logistics applications in Research library in Olomouc
Vymazalová, Jana ; Pernica, Petr (advisor) ; Mervart, Michal (referee)
This master's thesis investigates the of logistics of Research library in Olomouc and offers improvements. I introduce the Czech library system and then concentrate on the Olomouc library's history and the operations of individual departments. I found that the depositories could be improved in aspects such storage and overall building condition. The library uses barcodes for loan administration. To introduce the options of improvements of the library, I describe new technologies that are in use abroad such as RFID tags or shelf stacker in the storage rooms. I believe that the efficacy of library operations would improve should they be concentrated in one building and offer further enhancements to the daily running of the library.
