The project task is situated north-east of the centre of Brno at a plot aligned with the Vrbí street in near proximity of exits of a future city ring speedway. It is located in the midst of the traffic junction where international motorway meets international cycling route, Husovice train station and two tram end-stops. The project on the case study of hybrid building consisting of parking house and housing, shows exemplary solution for two key trends in contemporary urban planning: Transition towards automotive transport as public service and housing for “singles”.

The proposal follows up on the undergraduate semester work which dealt with a topic of data centers - a lifestyle based on data circulation. Growing needs of city dwellers, coupled with the demand of constant connectivity, are reflected in the transformation of the landscape which is being occupied by gigantic data centers. Those data centres in the loopback reconfigure the environment of cities that use their instant and "unlimited" computing power. The landscape is becoming the engine room of digital urban life. The thesis develops social and environmental issues of "continuity between a city and a country” and outlines a problem of self-sufficiency and awareness of the energy intensity of current urban lifestyle. In my work I focus on one of the by-products of data centers. That is waste heat, which has a negative effect on the quality and lifespan of electronic components - it is undesirable. Data center entrepreneurs have found a way to divert unfavourable attention from the debate about the energy demand of big data. They transform waste into a desired commodity by replacing conventional forms of heating with a system newly based on the supply of waste heat. Therefore, they are becoming significant suppliers of thermal energy. The phenomenon of heat recycling neutralizes external criticism of big data by making urban life literally dependent on it. The sustainable future of data center operations takes place largely without critical debate. On the contrary, it confirms data production as a process that literally drives everyday life. This new wave of green techno-optimism and related implementations is shrouded in a discourse of innovation, environmental friendliness and smart data processing. The diploma thesis deals with the phenomenon of commodification of waste heat of a specific data center, and its potential for symbolic and material transformation of the urban environment. The critical dimension of this transformation allows visitors to literally experience first-hand the manipulation of the climate of a specific location - the new city market in Brno. Other issues arise in connection with the recycling of waste heat. What will happen when big data streams become a raw material to replace older forms of energy supply in an urbanized world? What will be the impact on the city´s heating, the economic and symbolic importance of data center entrepreneurs?

Monitoring poruch chodivosti a její vliv na mléčnou užitkovost dojnic holštýnského skotu ve vybraném chovu
Přikrylová, Monika
The aim of this thesis was to evaluate the influence of lameness of Holstein breed milk cows on their dairy yield. The experiment took place in the farm Žabčice. The observation was carried out from July 2015 to January 2016. Cows were rated on a scale from 1 (no limping symptoms) to 5 (severe lameness). The milk yield , the fat and protein content and lactose were monitored. The phase and number of lactation cycles were considered as well. Analysis of gathering data shows that cows rated as 1 or 2 on the scale of lameness had a higher average milk yield (28.28 kg or 30.47 kg) and a lower number of lactation (2.26 resp. 2.55) than cows rated 3 or higher. Furthermore was found out that cows in the early phase of lactation cycle, 1 - 99 days or 100 - 199 days were rated lower on the scale of lameness (2.34 resp. 2.37) than cows in late phase of lactation 300 < (2.67). All aforementioned results were proven as highly statistically significant (p > 0.01). The expected influence of lameness on contend of compounds in milk was not proven. (p > 0.05).

Zhodnocení přírůstků a výšky v kříži býků masných plemen na vybrané odchovně plemenných býků
Přikrylová, Monika
Thesis deals with the bulls performance testing of beef cattle raised on chosen performance test station. At first the brief introduction to this domain and the general characterization of individual beef breeds are given. Further, the intensity of growth and influencing factors are described. Next chapter focuses on feed and recommnended amount of nutrients. Last part of theorethical section is devoted to relevant farm welfare requirements that are set by the Czech Beef Breeders Association. The first goal of practical part is to examine performance of beef breeds of cattle during four studied periods. The stress is laid on evaluation of mass and height growth of beef bulls. The mathematical Methods of Statistics are used to compare performance and its deviation between studied breeds.
