Record Linkage in Genealogical Data
Šorm, Jan ; Rozman, Jaroslav (referee) ; Zbořil, František (advisor)
The main aim of this thesis is to study genealogical data, to find out possible problems in their merging and to implement methods for this data merging. In this thesis, it will be studied the problem of classifying similar names into common classes. This problem will be studied mainly because people's names and surnames play the most important role in every registry entry. In this thesis, it will be analyzed several metrics for calculating the distance between two strings. In addition, several experiments will be done for these metrics to classify names into classes with as few errors as possible. Based on these results, experiments for record linkage will be performed.

Logistics in a chosen manufacturing concern
CHOCHOLA, Josef
Bachelor work deals with an analysis of logistical activities in a company called Kartáčovny, Inc based in Pelhřimov. The company with a long tradition in the branch deals with production and sale of brush goods. After the introduction of the company including an analysis of competition I came to an identification of a present marketing strategy which tries to keep the current market positions. I suggest extending the webside by adding an e-shop which would suitably complete it. Then I dealt with an analysis of a logistical chain. It is a traditional logistical chain with discontinuous flow where material flow works on push principle. The disadvantage of this logistical chain is the necessity of keeping big reserves of material,semi-finished goods and products. In consideration of this amount of reserves and changing of variable and fixed expenses, there should be carried out more frequent count of an optimal production rate of a single product. I also focused on a suitable lay-out of buildings, work places equipment and transport expenses to reduce the necessity of a frequent transport in a company area. I did not find any serious faults in work places during my visit. I also praise the general lighting of work rooms by daylight, which makes a pleasant atmosphere and does not become a stressful factor as in case of artificial lighting . After a detailed research of routes, number of contacts, distances and transport expenses among buildings (work rooms) in the company area, I found out the possibility to save as much as 162 216,80 CZK per year on transport expenses. This fact was demonstrated by CRAF method. I suggest building a new store instead of a present store of granulate II. Existing old store would be pulled down and replaced by this new store with a bigger capacity. I am sure that building a new store would bring many positives which are worth considering.
