Public spaces of the city of Brno - theoretical work
Lelkes, Ivana ; Adamková, Jana (referee) ; Kopáčik, Gabriel (advisor)
Master´s thesis adresses the issue of public spaces of inner city of Brno. These spaces have good prerequisities to become attractive places for everyday use or for spending a good free time. These prerequsities include for example compact city structure, well defined public spaces, walking city distances, presence of public and commercial facilities and distinctive genius loci. But public spaces in these localities often do not fulfill their own potential and stay as average free space inbetween buildings. Thesis suggests a detailed system for categorisation of squares and streets in the inner city of Brno and examines the reasons for potential non-fulfillment on these typologies, it tries to find out the problems of public spaces and how they can be solved.

Herzlich Willkommen
Dimitrov, Georgi ; Zein, Lynda (referee) ; Kristek, Jan (advisor)
The diploma project is a polemic on the current state of the Czech border region and a speculation on its future development. A test case is the settlement of Hatě, which is part of Chvalovice, a municipality located close to the border with Austria. Hatě is a specific territory - an urban structure that was created in the 1990s right at the border crossing, in the former duty-free zone, and even after its disappearance it is developing into a large commercial and entertainment zone. It targets mainly visitors from Austria, coming to the Czech Republic in search of cheaper goods and services. Hatě is not the only such example - commercial and entertainment zones are regularly repeated at all major border crossings between the Czech Republic and Austria or Germany. The places are defined by bizarre aesthetics, "decadent" businesses and deregulation - as if almost anything is possible here. The project is based on personal experiences with the territory, an attempt to come to terms with a place defined by total non-architecture and asks what is the position of an architect in such a space. Hatě is the antithesis of the city, a "zone" for escaping the everyday, a place that contradicts the basic principles of urbanism. It is a place that offers a reflection on both society and the profession of architecture itself. The work deals not only with the "zone" in Hatě, but also with the municipality of Chvalovice, in whose cadastral territory Hatě is located. Through the mutual synergy of these two places, the project speculates on the possible future development of the area. The polemic is based on the acceleration of the development of the area, which is pushed to the extreme by the proposal. The subject of the proposal is a conceptual master plan or a spatial study that speculates on the possible masterplan of the area of Chvalovice together with the settlement of Hatě.

Serial communication peripheries development in FPGA
Štraus, Pavel ; Adamec, Filip (referee) ; Frýza, Tomáš (advisor)
This bachelor’s thesis is about two peripheries. First periphery creates from input parallel signals one output serial signal. This serial signal contains a start bit, the next are data bits, parity bit and stop bit or two stop bits. Data bits are variables. It is mean their count is set with two input signals called Dat0 and Dat1. We can secure data bits with parity bit. Of course we have choice between even parity bit or odd parity bit. After parity bit there is one stop bit or there are two stop bits. Second periphery realizes I2C bus. This communication is between two devices. First device is called master and creates the communication with second device called slave. For communication there are two bidirectional lines. The first line is called SDA, which is a serial data line and second line is a serial clock line called SCL. Communication begins with a start condition. That means line SDA go from high to low while SCL is high and communication is terminate with a stop condition. That means line SDA go from low to high while SCL is high. The peripheries are programming in VHDL language and implemented in FPGA device. After successful simulation in free software ISE WebPACK the peripheries was realized in the development board V2MB1000 with device XC2V1000.

Brno lives on Veveří
Frimmel, Martin ; Joja, Milan (referee) ; Františák, Luboš (advisor)
The aim of this work is to find an urban solution of the existing periphery in the middle of the city. The problem is solved by a comprehensive composition of buildings and their mixed function. This system of European streets has been proven for centuries, so an effort was made to incorporate it into a modern city.

Mundanity at the End of the City
Dvořák, Jakub ; Nikitinová, Alice (referee) ; Artamonov, Vasil (advisor)
The bachelor's thesis is part of a long-term built and developed cycle of paintings, in which I deal with the environment of the small-town periphery, or the small-town landscape in general. In the paintings I try to create an atmosphere on the aspects of mundaneness, everyday life and civility. I do not avoid a certain descriptiveness to express my message to the audience. In painting, I looked mainly at composition and color. My main goal is show to the viewers the image of a contemporary Czech small town.

The Architecture of the Virtual
Halinár, Matej ; ArtD, Vít Halada, (referee) ; Kristek,, Jan (advisor)
Architecture Jail Escape It is a specific device for futuroptimist people based on the philosophy of posthumanism and transhumanism, a version of their own faith in endless life on the net. It is a belief in the possibility of technological transformation of humanity that will allow us to overcome our physical and biological limits. Clause 2.0 is architecture for pioneers - the protagonist of this transformation - enabling the longest and most complete stay in virtual reality. This avant-garde is anxious 2.0. Escapist personalities of digital age soldiers are looking for a haven and their own version of the world in the cyberspace. They create a vision of paradise and colonize (cyber) space without the political consequences of the finiteness of the physical world and the exhaustion of natural resources. They live on the frontier of the being, and they want to unburden themselves and merge with the world they understand more. They fight with their own brain and body that cannot break away from the world. The endlessness of the virtual space has the limits of body and senses. Long-term stay in a cyberspace is a loss of sense of time and space. This monastic life in clause 2.0 is able to keep them in shape, by observing the ritual, the physical performance of walking that they must undergo so that they can exist every day in their version of the digital monastery. These versions are infinite, and they can be ritually traced among them. Clause geometry isolates them from one another. The clause is a monastic concept that allows the people to live hermetically, as well as the physical world. The gateway to the virtual space is a "zero architecture" - a room, a cell, a cube on a 4x4 meter plan, rid of any visual architectural site. It provides only a flat floor as the reflection point for an endless virtual world and four walls and a ceiling with a corresponding thickness for a sufficient separation from the outside world. The world of infinite freedom opens behind this "zero architecture". It seems that not through "architectural innovation and political subversion" a modern architect's dream of architecture will be realized as machines for the liberation of man but through the abandonment of physical architecture as such. The prospect of "zero architecture" opens up a space where the new architecture will no longer be "luxuries and good homes, not the architecture of separation and imprisonment, but it will ultimately be the architecture of freedom.

Joseph Roth: Characteristics of the fictional world
Sirotek, Adam ; Kubíček, Tomáš (advisor) ; Mocná, Dagmar (referee)
This thesis analyses Roth's novels of the 1930s as a complex fictional macroworld. It is through fictional characters, the category of space and associated motifs and symbols that the decadent and specifically patriarchal semantics of the Habsburg world are examined. The main point of interest is the conflict between traditional and nationalized patriarchy outlined by Stritecky. The paper analyses the manifestations of the gradual disintegration of the basic value pillars of this patriarchal world, against the background of the dynamic tension between the centre and the periphery of the Habsburg monarchy. These pillars are the army, the bureaucracy, religious faith; the authority of the emperor, father and husband. In the first part (the centre), the degradation of these values is analysed in relation to the figures representing the centre of the empire. In the second and third parts (periphery; behind the curtain), the secondary figures of the representatives of the periphery, or women, come to the fore. Through these characters, the non-vital nature of nationalised patriarchalism is exposed. This work shows, among other things, that the deviation from the traditional, patriarchal order is the real cause of the overall decline. At the same time, the thesis that the space of the periphery is...

Uneven Development of the World Economy
Bílý, Boris ; Pavlínek, Petr (advisor) ; Ženka, Jan (referee)
This diploma thesis deals with inequalities within the Word economic development. The development is conceived in the context of world systems theory for the proper evaluation of this development. The question, whether there is a convergence or divergence across countries and groups of countries is an important question of contemporary studies of globalization. While proponents of modernization theory tend to say that countries converge, adherents of world systems theory mostly think the opposite. Another contribution of this work is the evaluation of economic development not based only on the production capabilities and growth. The approach is more complex and includes the development of the society as a whole. Therefore, Human development index was used for analysis and the researched period was set to 1980-2014 due to data availability. The analysis deals not only with inequalities between the parts of the world system, but partially also with inequalities within these parts. The theoretical part consists of discussion of the existing studies of world systems and economic development and explains the necessary terms and context. Practical part is made of own regionalization of the world into three parts of the world system (core, semiperiphery and periphery) based on criteria chosen according to...
