Slate gas and the prospects of its energy exploitation
Šindler, Matěj ; Přibil, Rudolf (advisor) ; Jelínek, Emil (referee)
First part of bachelor thesis introduces the concept of shale gas - what is the nature of the gas, why it is called shale, etc. Then there is described the technology of mining and acquisition of gas. Another chapter informs about shale gas reserves in the world, its importance and the planned career intentions. Very important part of this work is to look at the impacts of extraction of this gas, in particular climate change, water and soil pollution, impacts on the population, but also other phenomena, such as earthquakes caused by the extraction of this shale gas.

Differences in the resolution of sea territories conflicts in areas with energy resources
Bančanský, Andrej ; Karlas, Jan (advisor) ; Parízek, Michal (referee)
Energy security is an important phenomenon of the contemporary world. A significant number of oil and gas reserves are located on the seabed. Expansion of oil and gas drilling to deeper and from shore more remote locations can again raise the question of ownership of these deposits. On one hand, there are regions of the world where these disputes over borders of maritime territories escalate into a series of clashes and incidents. On the other hand, there are other areas where states can settle their disputes and cooperate on drilling. The goal of this study is to determine which factors lead to the fact that particularly in the South China Sea disagreement about the boundaries of maritime territories results in the escalation of disputes in comparison with the regions of the North Sea and the Caribbean Sea, where disputes are solved or minimized. These factors are represented by six variables, which are based on three theories: a realist, idealist and constructivist theory of international relations. The first part of this study describes the historical development of current international maritime law with regard to the territorial division of the world's oceans. It is followed by a description of three case areas. The second part deals with the theoretical foundations of the examined factors. In...

Contextualising or relativising evil? A probe into US antebellum slavery
Kubíček, Jan ; Ženíšek, Jakub (advisor) ; Topolovská, Tereza (referee)
The purpose of this thesis is to examine the abolition of antebellum slavery in the US through a leftist prism introduced by Michael Parenti. The first part provides a brief explanation of Parenti's theory on an example of the late Roman republic and its politico-economic background, which is depicted in The Assassination of Julius Caesar. In this part is also covered the historical precedent of slavery along with specific scientifically based arguments in favour of slavery developed by Samuel Cartwright. The last chapter gives a description of the process of abolition and eventually an analogy between Roman senatorial democracy and the antebellum slavery is established on a premise that in both the cases the privileged social class influenced historical narration of those events for its own benefit to cover its economic interests. Keywords: Michael Parenti, slavery, historical narrative, exploitation, Samuel Cartwright, the process of abolition

Exploits of Programs Written in C Language
Buček, Hynek ; Kněžík, Jan (referee) ; Procházka, Boris (advisor)
This thesis deals with exploiting techniques, using programming errors of C language programs. Work is mainly focused on problems such as: buffer overflow, stack overflow, heap overflow, BSS overflow, format string overflow and integer overflow. Document also describes some of the current counter-measures prevent misuse of these errors. To help understand this topic in the first introductory part is a short chapter focusing on a theoretical basis. The following chapters principles described in detail the various types of attacks.

Polymorphic Shellcode
Plocek, Radovan ; Ďurfina, Lukáš (referee) ; Křoustek, Jakub (advisor)
This paper describes important information relevant to creating and using of polymorphic shellcodes. It contains informations about virtual adress space layout on Windows and Linux, about processor's registers and classical shellcodes, which are basics of polymorphic shellcodes. The primary objective of this paper is a construction of an advanced generator of polymorphic shellcodes. It can be used for testing the performance of systems based on a signature detection. It is possible to combine various methods and their level by specification of arguments at program's start-up.

Industrial building plant Arvin Meritor Brno
Habarta, Jaroslav ; Vranová, Daniela (referee) ; Boleslavská, Yvona (advisor) ; Donaťáková, Dagmar (advisor)
The aim of the bachelor thesis was the elaboration of project documentation based on the studio project AG036. This is a new Arvin Meritor industrial plant specializing in the production of a car sub-system. The production of the plant should cover the demands of the Škoda Auto car factory, with a planned production of 300,000 vehicles per year. In accordance with the need for intensive exploitation of the territory of the City of Brno, the object is located on a plot in the Brno-Maloměřice district, which is run as brownfield no. 1904 and for which the applicable land plan assumes the production function. The concept of a new building by its location on the given plot takes into account the planned extension of the production part of the plant and eventual use of the site in the form of a new industrial zone. The object itself is designed as three cubic masses divided by illuminating corridors and functionally split into a production and administrative part with staff backgrounds. The production flow starts at the take in ramp to which the reception and storage of the goods is followed, including inspection and registration. Custom assembly takes place on three assembly lines, the production process is completed by a functional test and an output check.
