Hominin evolutionary development to the Plio-Pleistocene boundary in relation to body height
Garciová, Rosana ; Sládek, Vladimír (advisor) ; Hoffmannová, Eva (referee)
Body height is the main characteristic of human. It can be variable to the relation to the environment. Development of the height is primarily determined genetically, but an environment has a partly influence. An evolutionary view is very important, especially in the identification of fossils at the Plio-Pleistocene boundary and the overal view on individual development to 2.5 million years ago and characteristics of our ancestor. This bachelor thesis summarized the methods how to estimate the most accurate body height of fossil Homo and compares individuals between them. It also focuses on the geographic area of genus Homo not only on the period and if there is a correlation with increase or decrease in the height of an individual. The main finding of this work is diversity within species Homo. Homo habilis had reached the height of range 120-155 cm. In contrast, Homo ergaster measured up to about 170 cm. While Australopithecines were lower growth. Australopithecus were tall on average around 114 cm and Paranthropus exceeded them at range 10 cm. Slight differences in body height can be seen in the context of sexual dimorphism. The climate in Plio-Pleistocene had no influence on the change in height. Rather, the geographic area of occurrence of our ancestor played a role here. Key words:...

Emotional intelligence and approaches to its cognition and measurement
Tarasenko, Sabina ; Boukalová, Hedvika (advisor) ; Niederlová, Markéta (referee)
The purpose of this study is to provide an overview of the development of the concept of emotional intelligence, the most important concepts dealing with this topic and the methods used for its recognition and measurement, which are associated with models. For better orientation in the topic, the concept of emotions and emotional intelligence applied in selected fields is also explained and defined. In the empirical part, the research is designed to create measurement methods of emotional intelligence, which utilizes the integrated model and combines the self-assessment questionnaires from more models with FACS and MSCEIT. Research should, on a large stratified sample, show, if the newly created method validly measures the level of emotional intelligence through parallel validation of the MSCEIT. Finally, it describes the possibilities of using the method and the actual outcome, expressed with the emotional quotient, in practice.

Diagnostics of semiconductors properties
Šeliga, Ladislav ; Rozsívalová, Zdenka (referee) ; Frk, Martin (advisor)
This thesis describes the basic properties of semiconductor materials and methods of their measuring. In the first part of this work are discussed elemental semiconductors, semiconductor compounds and the band structure. The next section describes current conduction in semiconductors, methods for measuring resistivity. This work is focused on the measuring drift mobility of minority charge carriers using the Haynes-Shockley method for a sample of silicon semiconductor, the creation of automated workplace in the development environment VEE Pro and resistivity measurements of silicon samples.

Spectral characteristics measurement of single fibre optical transmission
Balon, Radek ; Křepelka, Václav (referee) ; Filka, Miloslav (advisor)
The main object of the bachelor´s thesis is show familiarize with optical networks and measuring when the fibres are connected to operating network. The whole thesis was separated into several parts. The first part was deals with optic fiber and properties, kinds of optic fibers, methods of propagation light inside fiber and important parameters, which has undesirable effects, such as optic loss and dispesive influences. Next part was concentrated on transfer technologies, which where used for data transmission in operating networks. We talked about differences between technologies and describe the monitoring system, which was used for measuring parameters in operating network. The last part was focused on own measuring. We was measured the parameters in operating network CESNET2 and influence of the signal after connect optic monitoring probe. Measuring was implemented on optical network of Masaryk University in Brno (ÚVT MU).

Methodology for calibration of containers and tanks
Vrátil, Šimon ; Brno, Miroslava Benková, ČMI OI (referee) ; Vdoleček, František (advisor)
This diplomathesis work is dealing with a concept of volumetric calibration of vessels using the volumetric method. The analysis considers current regulations together with influence of uncertainties in measurements. The principal part of the thesis is analysis of metrological uncertainties resulting from application of various volumetric methods during the calibration process. A practical outcome from this research is development of metrological process for calibration of vessels that could be used by the accredited laboratories.

Differential electromagnetic analysis
Novotný, Bohumil ; Člupek, Vlastimil (referee) ; Martinásek, Zdeněk (advisor)
This diploma thesis studies the theory side channels, simple and differential analysis, and types of attacks on the side channel, which may be run against the cryptographic system. The thesis explains the principles of side channel attack on a possible defense against them. The second part of the thesis describes experimental work created, its individual components and their functions. The findings builds custom solutions attack the electromagnetic side channel using electromagnetic probes and the workplace equipment developed for this task. The final part of the thesis is devoted to the description of the implemented algorithm, a description of measurement, measurement results and possible modifications of algorithms implemented in the microcontroller for full automation of the attack on the device, against which the attack was conducted.

Ways of sustainability measurement at the regional level
Kramulová, Jana ; Macháček, Jaroslav (advisor) ; Švihlová, Dana (referee) ; Nováček, Pavel (referee)
This thesis deals with ways of sustainability measurement at the regional level. In the theoretical part apart from definition and evolution of the concept related fields and different approaches to sustainable development are presented. Further, data sources and suitable characteristics of ideal indicators are discussed. In the application part methods applicable to measuring sustainable development along with restraints and possible problematic areas are introduced. Subsequently, these methods are applied to individual regional levels according to CZ-NUTS classification (NUTS 1 to NUTS 3 levels and LAU 1 and LAU 2 levels). At the end of the thesis, the most suitable techniques of results' presentation are introduced. The aim of the thesis is to evaluate and assess the ways of practical use of mainly quantitative methods (statistical methods and modelling techniques) for analysis and measurement of regional development sustainability and to suggest the most convenient methods for individual regional levels. The thesis answers three research questions: if one method is useful for all "regional" levels; if it is better to assess sustainability from the point of view of pillar or capital approach; and finally, if it is for measuring of sustainability more proper one summarizing (composite) indicator or indicators' set including more indicators.

Měření dopadů společesnké odpovědnosti firem - Případová studie na finanční gramotnost v České republice
Jelínková, Markéta ; Pauknerová, Daniela (advisor) ; Škorpil, Ondřej (referee)
This thesis aims to ascertain which method is the most appropriate to measure impacts of Corporate Social Responsibility and also specifically Corporate Community Investments as a part of Corporate Social Responsibility. Various methods were used in the Master's Thesis, such as analysis, comparison, several personal as well as phone interviews or questionnaire. Section 1 provides overview of Corporate Social Responsibility from various perspectives. Sections 2 and 3 focus on measuring impacts of Corporate Social Responsibility and particular measurement methods. Section 4 provides a comparison of existing methods. In section 5, Case Study on projects of ČSOB regarding Financial Literacy in the Czech Republic is being solved, including analysis of Financial Literacy in terms of "Need" and "Supply" as well as the application of measurement methods. As of the results, Global Reporting Initiative proved to be the most appropriate method to be used for Corporate Social Responsibility/sustainability measurement in general while London Benchmarking Group methodology is the most suitable within Corporate Community Investment. However, both methods should be supplemented when being applied as they are not exhaustive.
