Evaluation of conditions for the development of clusters in South Bohemia region
FENCLOVÁ, Michaela
The diploma work deals with development of clusters in South Bohemia. The aim of the work is the analysies of present situation of production creation of clusters in South Bohemia, evaluation of possibilities for the development and inception of new clusters and comparison with the situation in abroad. In the first part of the work the conception of clusters, types and kinds of clusters, support programs etc are characterized . The second part is describes South Bohemia, scientific institutions, supporting institutions and clusters whitch are in a phase of preparation and clusters which already exist. In this part I enquired into pertinence of conditions for the creation of clusters in South Bohemia according to the number of employees and according to the share of added value. Next I asked assistants from small and middle-sized companies about their awareness about clusters and about their possible cooperation in this cluster. South Bohemia has significant branches which have high potential for creating clusters. It results from the coefficient of the localization. These are branches of Fishing and fish farming, Production and main of electricity, gas and water and Agriculture, forestry and hunting. South Bohemia has great presumtions for development of wood industry, paper industry, fishing and agriculture. From the query I found out that small and middle-sized companies do not have much information about clusters. Small and middle-sized companies do not trust the cooperation. No of the correspondent companies wants to establish a cluster or to enter a cluster. South Bohemia has big potential for creation of clusters. In the region there are a lot of bussines institution (universities, research institutes) and many institutions, which should inprove the awareness about clusters (CzechInvest, Economic Chamber, South Bohemian Agency for Support of Innovative Enterprising). These institutions organize conferences, workshops, presentations and expositions. They also help in start of the business, in development, in establishment of clusters and they inform about possible cooperation.

Linux terminal server for thin client and computing cluster
JALŮVKA, Adam
The goal of this work is to aquaint the reader with projects LTSP and openMosix. The complex sollution of the terminal server and the computing cluster with an automatic load balancing is created on the basis of these projects. This work is not only aimed at projects which are already capable to stay independently next to each other, but it is also aimed at the linkage of projects which produce benefits. The first advantage is the ability of an easy connection of new nodes to the computing cluster without the need of installation. The second advantage is that nodes can contribute with its systems resources to the terminal server and other clients.

Ways to address selected areas of cooperative organization and its application in Cluster Omnipack
Lukavec, Petr ; Klas, Jan (advisor) ; Molnár, Zdeněk (referee)
This work is based on knowledge of concept of clusters and of other cooperative organizations. The general objective of this work is to solve specific, narrowly defined problems of a particular cluster. The reason was to come up with a solution that will be applicable and useful in this particular cluster. And this solution may be useful also in other clusters, because clusters throughout Europe, have many common features. Problems were generated by the author, during talks with representatives of cluster Omnipack. So these problems are important and really relevant for this cluster. Next goal was to measure these issues in relation to basic criteria, like importance, and difficulty. This evaluation was the basis for selecting problems to solve. Other objective was to search for specific solutions using existing literature, examples from other clusters and output of own research of clusters. As main problem to solve was chosen problem called "performance measurement". Because no suitable solution was found in the literature or other resources, author had to create own solution. Problematic area of the problem "performance assessment" was described as follows: "Support from European Union subsidies is really crucial for many clusters in Czech Republic right now. But after the end of these subsidies, clusters will have to prove or demonstrate to its members that they are still useful. Then cluster members will be then willing to continue with financial supporting of their cluster." The problem was solved from the perspective of cluster members, and main areas of its concept are performance evaluation of cluster members from the perspective of a cluster member, benefits of the cluster as a whole for members of the cluster, the benefits of other members of the cluster for a particular member of the cluster and cluster management role for the use of these advantages from the perspective of cluster members. Solution of this problem is very detailed and extensive, and represents main author's scientific contribution. Important point of this approach is evaluating the performance of the cluster from the perspective of cluster members. This approach brings some new insights. Author proposed his own concept of looking at the actors and factors, influencing the performance of cluster members. Proposed concept of pairwise comparison of cluster members is also really innovative. It brings new opportunities in the detailed description and understanding the cluster by its members and management.

Market Segmentation
Sobíšek, Lukáš ; Hebák, Petr (advisor) ; Průšová, Petra (referee)
The aim of my thesis is to verify efficiency of different statistical methods in segmentation analysis of marketing data. I decided to carry out my study on the organic food market. The theoretical part defines segmentation from the marketing point of view, followed with statistical insight into this topic. The theory is then applied to marketing study in practical part. Finally, concrete recommendations for organic food marketers, producers and distributors are offered, which could help them to increase their revenues and to acquire a bigger market share.

High availability storage for virtualized servers
Zvala, Tomáš ; Pavlíček, Luboš (advisor) ; Borka, Michal (referee)
This thesis aims at providing basic overview of technologies capable of providing high-availability for virtualized servers. It focuses mostly on technologies that are cheap and available even to the smallest companies. Reader is presented with an introduction to hardware technologies, that can be used to connect storage, software technologies available to share the storage and finaly there is a quick introduction to virtualization solutions of major market players. Aim of the project part of this thesis is to explore the options of building small virtualization cluster based only on common hardware and opensource technologies on Linux platform.

Clustering as a Tool of Competitiveness, the Case of the Czech Republic
Daumová, Dora ; Zemplinerová, Alena (advisor) ; Chalupníček, Pavel (referee)
This paper deals with the issue of clusters as relatively new tools of competitiveness in economies and examines their linkage to state through cluster policies and initiatives. At the beginning, a theoretical development of the concept is presented. Afterwards, the cluster concept as such is introduced, putting down a wide scale of supportive rationales, presenting also possible risks and explaining a linkage to innovation and competitiveness. The second part of the thesis treats the issue of cluster policies as possible means of a cluster creation. Aside from examining cluster policies in different views, an emphasis is put on the justification of the role of state which can take part as either contributive or disturbing factor. The empirical part of the paper presents the case of the Czech clustering. Firstly, the Czech cluster policy is analyzed concerning its targets, instruments, approaches and other relevant issues, focusing on shortcomings and problems of the policy. Further, a case study of the Moravian-Silesian automotive cluster is presented. In this part, the particular cluster is observed with a view to its origin, development and activities. The endeavor is to compare the case with the classical Porter model and find out its inadequacies.
