Metrics and Criteria for Socio-Technical System Diagnostic
Raudenská, Lenka ; Dohnal, Mirko (referee) ; Nenadál, Jaroslav (referee) ; Fiala, Alois (advisor)
This doctoral thesis is focused on metrics and the criteria for socio-technical system diagnostics, which is a high profile topic for companies wanting to ensure the best in product quality. More and more customers are requiring suppliers to prove reliability in the production and supply quality of products according to given specifications. Consequently the ability to produce quality goods corresponding to customer requirements has become a fundamental condition in order to remain competitive. The thesis firstly lays out the basic strategies and rules which are prerequisite for a successful working company in order to ensure provision of quality goods at competitive costs. Next, methods and tools for planning are discussed. Planning is important in its impact on budget, time schedules, and necessary sourcing quantification. Risk analysis is also included to help define preventative actions, and reduce the probability of error and potential breakdown of the entire company. The next part of the thesis deals with optimisation problems, which are solved by Swarm based optimisation. Algorithms and their utilisation in industry are described, in particular the Vehicle routing problem and Travelling salesman problem, used as tools for solving specialist problems within manufacturing corporations. The final part of the thesis deals with Qualitative modelling, where solutions can be achieved with less exact quantitative information of the surveyed model. The text includes qualitative algebra descriptions, which discern only three possible values – positive, constant and negative, which are sufficient in the demonstration of trends. The results can also be conveniently represented using graph theory tools.

Optimalizace plánování výroby ve společnosti SWN Moravia s.r.o.
Šabatková, Šárka
Šabatková, Š. Optimisation of production planning it the company SWN Moravia s.r.o. Diploma thesis. Brno: Mendel University in Brno, 2017. The subject of this diploma thesis is practical application of operations research and network analysis methods in terms of specific company. The main objective of this thesis is to optimize the planning of production processes in order to streamline and shorten the processing time of the orders. The theoretical part is focused on production management, evidence and planning. It also includes methods of operations research and characteristics of the graph theory, network analysis and supporting software. In the practical part is compiled a mathematical model as edge-rated network graph. This model is solved in program WinQSB and MS Project using the Critical Path Method further complemented by the cost analysis with CPM/COST method. In the conclusion, there is critical evaluation of the usefulness of provided results.

Application of project management methods in public administration
Labancová, Karolina ; Houška, Milan (advisor) ; Hana, Hana (referee)
This thesis entitled "Application of project management methods in public administration" handles real project, which will be held in public administration, with the help of project management. The work describes what steps must be pursued must perform in order to make the investment plan, in this case, the construction of a new building that will serve as the sponsor registry. The first part focuses on the explanation of the concepts of project management, dealing with specifying what the different terms mean and how they can be used in a practical direction. Along with these concepts also deals with the methods and principles that are used in project management. These include STEP analysis, which looks at what the external environment surrounding the subject and SWOT analysis, which in turn monitors the internal environment of the body. The work is also used and critical path method called. CPM and created hierarchical structure of WBS activity. The thesis also analyzes risk situations and procurement procedures and their financial value. The theoretical part serves as a basis for practical work. The second part is focused on practical use of knowledge, which are described in the theoretical part. There is described by the entity itself, which will carry out the investment plan and what needs to prepare and arrange before the project will be successfully completed. STEP analysis and SWOT are the practical part applied to a particular subject and their conclusions are then made the decision that the construction is necessary or not. Other methods, ie. critical path method, hierarchical structure, operations and risk analysis methods are no longer aimed at the very beginning and the realization of the investment project. This summary is presented in the final part.

Comparison of the Critical Path Method and the Critical Chain Method
Sůra, Jan ; Fiala, Petr (advisor) ; Kuncová, Martina (referee)
There are many methods used in project management. One of the most commonly used methods is the Critical path method (CPM). The results of applying this method to projects are unfortunately not satisfactory; project time estimates, costs and the quality of output are often not met, in many cases by 10 % or more. Many methods have been developed in an attempt to improve project performance. One of these methods is the Critical chain method (CCM). Its author, Eliyahu Goldratt, focused on aspects of projects which have been largely neglected by most of the other methods - uncertainty management and human psychology, workers' motivation etc. Today, the Critical chain method has many enthusiastic supporters so it is clear that it has helped to significantly improve project performance. The purpose of this paper is to compare both mentioned methods.
Process optimization in horse racing
Bezděkovská, Radka ; Fiala, Petr (advisor) ; Flusserová, Lenka (referee)
This thesis is concerned with the use of some optimization methods in harness racing. In the first part of the thesis, both critical path method and critical chain method of the project management are applied to horse racing projects. Then a comparison is made in order to choose a suitable method under various conditions. As a result, we can suggest improvements in horse racing organization. In order to determine optimal number of racing days, races and other aspects within a season, an optimization model is created in the second part of the thesis. Minimization of cost or maximization of number of starts can be chosen as an objective function. Various constraints are considered.
The Theory of Graphs and the Solution of Its Exercises in the System LINGO
Drechslerová, Tereza ; Jablonský, Josef (advisor) ; Zouhar, Jan (referee)
The aim of this bachelor thesis is to introduce basic types of exercises of theory of graphs and to display possible methods of their solution. I have chosen these types of exercises: finding minimal skeleton, finding maximum river and Critical Path Method (CPM) and I specify them. Praticular exercises are solved in the system LINGO and after that by specific algorithm for optimalization in the graph. Part of my work also presents explanation of basic terms and short historical review of developement of the theory of graphs.

Beranová, Michaela ; Fiala, Petr (advisor) ; Kuncová, Martina (referee)
Hlavním tématem práce je problematika plánování a řízení projektů v oblasti IS/ICT projektů. Tato oblast se poměrně dynamicky vyvíjí a vznikají nové přístupy k řízení a plánování projektů. Hlavním cílem práce je porovnat několik standardně používaných metod s jednou z novějších metod ? Kritický řetěz. Zároveň je snaha přiblížit softwarový produkt, který je na základě této metody založen a podporuje řízení projektů pomocí této metody. Práce je situována do reálného prostředí a srovnává dané metody na reálném projektu implementace IS/ICT projektu. Práce je rozdělena do několika částí. První popisuje daný projekt. Ukazuje výchozí stav a problémy, které by měl projekt vyřešit. Také popisuje cílový stav a činnosti, které je nutné vykonat, aby ho bylo dosáhnuto.Druhá část je teoretické zázemí, které popisuje jednotlivé metody. V další části je samotná aplikace metod při plánování projektu. Předposlední část se věnuje průběhu projektu a ukazuje, jak se projekt vyvíjel. Tato část je doplněna reporty z jednotlivých softwarových nástrojů. V poslední části jsou zhodnoceny jednotlivé metody a na základě toho přijaty závěry, jaké postupy je při plánování a řízení IS/ICT projektů dobré přijmout.
