The contributions of the sections (NACE-CZ) to the creation of gross value added
BEDNÁŘOVÁ, Monika
The aim of this thesis was to evaluate the contributions of the sections (NACE-CZ) to the creation of gross value added. The first part of this thesis described the theoretical concepts relating to national economic gross value added. Analytical processes were used for the calculations, which may be used only if we are dealing with an additive link between individual factors. The sections' contributions to the creation of national eco-nomic gross value added were evaluated in the practical part, on the basis of the proc-esses set forth in the methodology. In the given time horizon, contributions by institu-tional sectors and groups of sections classified according to the level of technology showed a certain dependency on the actual economic cycle. Although the strongest in-stitutional sector is non-financial enterprises, they were the ones most affected during the crisis period, together with government institutions. On the contrary, the financial institution sector showed a strong position during the crisis period. In terms of the grouping of the sections according to the level of technology, the greatest contribution to national economic gross value added is by groups B1 and B2. The influence of the economic cycle was noted in all the groups but, according to the results, group C did not react quite as sensitively as the other groups.

Convexity in stochastic programming model with indicators of ecological stability
Houda, Michal
We develop an optimization model dealing with construction expenses that are prescribed as a result of the EIA (Environmental Impact Assessment) process. The process is an obligatory part of every large construction project and evaluates possible influences of the project to the environment, including population health, natural and other socio-economic aspects; the result of the process is a set of recommendation and arrangements the construction must meet. Our optimization model incorporates uncertainties in model parameters; we represent them through their probabilistic distribution. Furthermore, to overcome a problem with quantifying subjective utility function of ecological impacts, we measure them by so-called indicators of ecological stability. The resulting problem is stochastic programming problem formulated as (C)VaR model used traditionally in finance area. In our contribution we deal with convexity properties of this problem – these are especially important from the theoretical as well as from the computational point of view.

The psychological prevention of work injuries
PAPAJOVÁ, Hana
This thesis deals with psychological prevention of work injuries. About two milion of people die worldwide as a result of work injuries and illnesses originating in work. If I think about this statistic data, I have to ask myself basic questions: what is the cause of such a high mortality in today´s over-technical time, what are the main causes of injuries and how can we anticipate them? These questions are also the main issues of this work. The first chapter deals with work injuries, particularly with the way we should proceed when it comes to such an injury - what the employer´s and employee´s duties are. Rhe next sub-chapter focuses on the responsibility for the harm of work injuries, work injuries compensation such as the earning loss substitution, smart money, specific costs connected with treatment and compensation for damage to property. The second chapter is aimed to the labour protection. Firstly, it deals with the labour protection on a general level, then with the BOZP training and related basic documents, OHSAS 18001 Certifikace systému managementu BOZP - contributions of the certification and "Safe enterprise". The last sub-chapter goes in the work inspection authorities - keeping duties given by legal formulas, activities of the work inspection authorities, the scope of their activities and the authorization of the work inspector. The third chapter is about the work injuries prevention. The first sub-chapter focuses on the employer´s duties, the next one is about mental burden and its display, also the safe demands on machines and appliances, examples of causes of work injuries and more particular principles of labour protection in the food industry. The fourth part has been created in a quantitative way. I have asked nine meat manufactories to complete a questionnaire I had made myself in a way to draw conclusions and fulfill the goals of the thesis and answer the questions set at the beginning. The company, which came out the smallest accident, I did an interview, which makes, I obtained information regarding their approach to the issue. The labour and health protection are neccessary conditions in all work branches. Every employer has a lot of duties to their employees and the goal is to provide the workplace safe and with a minimal risk of work injuries. The most important issue is to pay attention to prevention from the very beginning.

New Roman Period settlement finds from Prague-Kbely
Malyková, Drahomíra ; Bursák, D. ; Pecinovská, Monika
Presented rescue excavations took place in north-eastern part of Prague in the year 2007 within the parish of Prague-Kbely. Most of the features and artifacts belong to the Bronze Age and the late Iron Age. In this contribution authors focus only on the part of archaeological record that brought some evidence on settlement activities datable to the Roman Period. Approximately a half of the artifacts come from eight sunken features, the other part was found widespread in the wide unstratified layer, so any house or farmstead layout is hardly recognizable. Among the common pottery sherds that belong typologically to the end of 2nd-4th Century AD and bear typical signs of Germanic pottery were found also some finds of Roman-provincial provenience. Due to the small dimensions and absence of more detailed typological traces is hard to say something more concrete about these in Bohemia rarely found artifacts. Important finds also present the metallic artifacts, mostly from 2nd and 3rd Century AD.

How to proceed in evaluating and financing science: International Audit recommendations
Moravcová, Jitka
British company Technopolis Group and their partners performed between 2010 and 2011 a deep and complex analysis of the Research, Development and Innovation System in the Czech Republic. The outputs of this analysis are exceptional documents drawn by an internationally recognized authority with extensive experience in the field of management, evaluation and financing of research and development that give us for the first time an independent view of our system. The audit results are a very good starting point for the update of strategic documents such as Research, Development and Innovation System Reform or Research, Development and Innovation National Policy that should lead to the visible improvement of the RDI system effectiveness and contribute to the improved competitiveness of the Czech Republic. All the documents are accessible to general public on the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports web sites http://audit-vav.reformy-msmt.cz/. The paper will inform about the most important recommendations concerning RDI management, financing and evaluation on all levels.

Introduction to Algebra of Belief Functions on Three-element Frame of Discernment - A General Case
Daniel, Milan
This contribution presents the second part of the introductive study of algebraic structure of belief functions (BFs) on 3-element frame of discernment. Algebraic method by Hájek & Valdés for BFs on 2-element frames is generalized to larger frame of discernment. Due to complexity of the algebraic structure, the study is divided into 2 parts, the present one is devoted to a case of general BFs. The definition of Dempster's semigroup (an algebraic structure) of BFs on 3-element frame is recalled from the first part of the study. Results related to Bayesian and quasi Bayesian BFs from the first part are also briefly recalled. Further substructures related to another subsets of general BFs are described and analyzed (including idempotents, simple complementary BFs, generalizations of subsemigroups of simple BFs) and subalgebras isomorphic to Dempster's semigroup on 2-element frame of discernment. Ideas and open problems for future research are presented.

Music as an Expression of the Lifestyle in the UK in 1960s. Contribution to the European Consumer Society after 1945.
Vlčková, Petra ; Soběhart, Radek (advisor) ; Kozmanová, Irena (referee)
This thesis focuses on the British music scene in the 1960s. Popular music was one of the main manifestations of consumerism and influenced the behavior of most young people. The aim of the thesis is to explain the extent in which popular music played a role in the establishment of a consumer society and, above all, the impact caused by interpreters and music groups on the lifestyle of their listeners and audiences.The thesis also examines how the British music developed in the Sixties and how it was characterized.The thesis is based on the assumption that the 1960s' is a key decade in the postwar history of modern society, a time when fundamental changes occurred in the value systems of most Western societies, notably the British. New generations of young people associated with economic prosperity surfaced at that time, fostering the development of the phenomenon of consumer society, thus changing people's lifestyles.The first part of the thesis is dedicated to economic and social assumptions of the development of the consumer society. The second part of the thesis addresses the social structure of the British society, focusing on the youth - arguably, the social extract that was most appealed by popular music. The core part of the thesis analyses the British music scene in the 1960s, with focus on the music groups and also the music industry and its impal on the lifestyle of youth.

This methodology provides us with instruction how to monitor rodent densities in forest environment and is concentrated on the species causing damage to broad-leaved forest plantings. Principle presumption for effective plantings protection control is to know rodent’s population density. Basic ecological informations about the target species are also included. This methodology book contribute to better understanding of young tree damage origin in broader connections and contribute to more effective input on damage prevention. Methodology is addressed above all to forest practices workers.

LP relaxations and pruning for characteristic imsets
Studený, Milan
The geometric approach to learning BN structure is to represent it by a certain vector; a suitable such zero-one vector is the characteristic imset, which allows to reformulate the task of finding global maximum of a score over BN structures as an integer linear programming problem. The main contribution of this report is an LP relaxation of the corresponding polytope, that is, a polyhedral description of the domain of the respective integer linear programming problem.
