Ambrož, Vladimír ; Růžička, Michal (advisor) ; Pítra, Vladimír (referee)
Protection of the appellation of origin under Czech law and international treaties This thesis deals with the topic of appellation of origin. Appellation of origin is governed by Czech law, European Union law and by international multilateral and bilateral treaties. Appellation of origin is an exceptional measure because it provides an indefinite number of users meeting prescribed conditions with protection. The paper is divided into four chapters. The first chapter deals with history and with theoretical introduction into the topic of appellations of origin. Following three chapters describe the protection in the Czech Republic, European Union and on the international level. There are examples of concrete appellations of origin at the end of each of these three chapters. The examples are used in order to better demonstrate different ways of possible use of the appellations of origin. The work uses legal enactments as well as administrative and court decisions. Specialized publications and opinions of some of the users are used as well. The core of legal regulations governing appellations of origin in many countries is formed by multilateral international treaties. This applies also in case of the Czech Republic and the European Union. Application for registration of an appellation of origin may be filled...

Karlec, Jan ; Růžička, Michal (advisor) ; Pítra, Vladimír (referee)
Legal protection of domains in relation to the right of indication The subject of this thesis is a legal protection of domain names. Domain names are used as humanly memorable names for Internet and serve as simple address to access websites. Each domain name has to be unique, it is not possible to register two or more identical names. This makes them very valuable and worth of protecting. The registration process of domain names is very simple and cheap, mostly based on the principle "first come, first served". No one has an automatic right to a particular name. This cause many conflicts, because the principles of registration are often abused by domain speculators. However, the domain names are not subject of special legal regulation in the most countries (Czech republic included). The thesis is composed of two parts. The first part is divided in five chapters. Initiative chapters are focused on defining the concept of domain names, their technical aspects, hierarchical structure and types. In this part is also mentioned Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) and its Uniform Dispute Resolution Policy (UDRP). Further, this part contains a description of the registration process of domain names under the country-code top level domain ".cz" (ccTLD.cz) and the legal aspects of domain...

Autonomous vehicle convoy control system architecture based on ROS framework
Buchta, Hynek ; Růžička, Michal (referee) ; Věchet, Stanislav (advisor)
This thesis deals with the problematics of designing control system for convoy of autonomous vehicles using software tools offered as part of the ROS framework, which must take into account possible future implementations of various types of sensors. Designed system is realized on a single-board computer Pi 3 platform, the Raspberry company product. The main input sense is camera stream connected via USB interface. Another important part of the system is a wireless network module allowing communication between vehicles in the convoy as well as remote access to each of them. The engines are directly controlled by a mbed LPC1768 microcontroller communicating through serial link.

Protection of the appellation of origin under Czech law and international treaties.
Burdová, Jana ; Růžička, Michal (advisor) ; Pítra, Vladimír (referee)
Protection of the appellation of origin under Czech Law and international treaties The purpose of this thesis is to present the concept of the appellation of origin under Czech Law, international treaties and also under Community Law. The appellation of origin represents very specific part of the industrial property rights. Contrary to other subjects of industrial property, the appellation of origin has more public aspects. This fact is very important for legal construction of this institute and for its protection. Speciality of the legal regulation of the appellation of origin was one of the reasons, which motivated me to deal with the problems more deeply. The thesis consists of introduction, which is followed by four chapters and the brief conclusion, which closes the whole study. The first chapter focuses on general aspects of the concept of the appellation of origin. Firstly the term "appellation of origin" is defined, analysed and compared with the term "geographical indication" (as the superior term in relation to the term "appellation of origin"). The second part of the first chapter points out the importance of protection of the appellation of origin for producers of relevant products and also for consumers. The third part describes historical development of the appellation of origin,...

Chapter One deals with possibilities of protection of the trade mark in the European Union. This chapter further specifies national trade mark system and its legal regulation in the European Union and in the Czech Republic and international trade mark system called Madrid system. Chapter Two describes grounds for establishment and existence of the Community trade mark. Description of legal regulation and sources, characteristic features and types of the Community trade mark is the subject of further parts of this chapter.

Protection of three dimensional trade marks and designs
Čech, Jakub ; Růžička, Michal (advisor) ; Pítra, Vladimír (referee)
Resumé Protection of Three-Dimensional Trade Marks and Designs The aim of this work was to examine the registration requirements of three- dimensional trade marks and designs, to compare the rights and protection conferred by each of these forms of intellectual property and to observe the interaction of trade mark and design when their subject matter is identical or similar. First part of this work focuses on the questions regarding the registration requirements of the three-dimensional trade marks. The work looks closely on what constitutes a sign and which absolute grounds for refusal of registration are mostly employed when dealing with the three-dimensional trade marks. Furthermore this work looks at exclusion of registration of certain types of shapes, on the requirement of good faith when applying for trade mark registration and briefly at the average consumer. The landmark cases cited in this part of the work are Dyson v Registrar of Trade Marks, Philips v Remington, Henkel v OHIM, Lego v OHIM and Lindt v Franz Hauswirth. Second part of this work looks at the definition of design and its relationship to product itself. It also looks at the background of design protection and closely at the registration requirements of designs, namely the novelty requirement, the individual character and exclusion of...
