JANČOVIČOVÁ, Nikola
At present, almost every top manager is struggling with stress and the effects associated with it. The aim of the thesis discusses two basic groups of workers - occupations that involve increased risk, problems solving and increased mental and emotional burden (managerial occupations, professions in the military, ...). And the workers who found themselves in the short-term unfavourable situation that burdens them as well as their surroundings. We must be familiar with basic concepts, history, leadership and the problems associated with this profession in order to approach the topic. Status of women and men in leadership positions and expert opinions how to manage best stressful situations are observed.

Hošková, Laura ; Maule, Petr (advisor) ; Lukášová, Tereza (referee)
The theoretical part of the Bachelor Thesis comprehensively illustrates the status and representation of persons with disabilities (PWD) on the current labour market in the Czech Republic. In a general manner, the Thesis looks at the employment policy as well; especially its legislative basis in the legal framework of the Czech Republic and selected EU countries. Furthermore, the legal obligations of employers of PWD and the possibilities of fulfilling the mandatory share of PWD employment are stated. Findings of two qualitative employment studies are presented showing that PWD enter the labour market equipped with specialized competencies, which they are willing to complete by retraining programmes in case of need. The employers perceive the employment of PWD mainly as a financial profit, granted to them by the state; and the legislative conditions are a sufficient incentive for them. The questionnaire survey pointed out that the weakness in the employment of PWD is the lack of part-time jobs, which are highly demanded among them. Therefore the Thesis presents a solution, which could be the creation of shared work positions.

Innovation activities in Germany in the context of smart specialisation
Vlčková, Markéta ; Vlčková, Jana (advisor) ; Vošta, Milan (referee)
Economic growth is slowing in many countries. It leads to a discussion on what sources of growth should countries focus. For this purpose, EU created the concept of smart specialization, which puts an emphasis on the most efficient use of public financial resources dedicated to research and development. The aim of this thesis is to find out on what industry Germany as a leader of EU innovation and its individual regions specializes and to identify potential areas for targeting resources to innovation, research and development. This will be determined by using the patent network. The secondary objective is to interconnect findings of patenting and analysis of innovation activities in various regions of Germany with international trade and to determine whether there is a correlation between innovation activity in a particular sector and export of the sector's products abroad.

Multicriteria games
Tichá, Michaela ; Dlouhý, Martin (advisor) ; Lachout, Petr (referee) ; Čičková, Zuzana (referee)
Theory of multicriteria games is a special field of game theory, when one or more players have at least two payoff functions and want to maximize simultaneously. The work introduces a number of new findings. It examined the concept of finding equilibria in pure strategies in noncooperative multicriteria game. It is possible to find all the equilibria in pure strategies by full search and solving two linear programs for each point. Furthermore, two linear programs are formulated for verifying that a selected point is the equilibrium of the game or not. In the noncooperative games is also introduced the concept that with knowledge of the equilibrium of bimatrix game determines preferences of the players. Although finding the equilibrium point of the bimatrix game is nonlinear problem, finding the preferences is linear problem. The latest findings in the noncooperative games is a generalization of the concept that solves multicriteria game by assigning weights to each criterion of each player. The work demonstrates that it may not be necessarily linear weights, but it can be more general function that describes the player's preference. The remaining part is devoted to knowledge in cooperative games. There is considered that the players know their preferences and are able to express them by weights. The game with known preferences is defined and solved with the use of bargaining theory. Then it is generalized to a case where players have more payoff functions, from which they can choose. Finally, the multicriteria case of voting game is defined. It is designed completely new concept, which selects the winning coalition in the voting game. This concept is then applied to the real situation after the elections to the Chamber of Deputies in 2013.

Specific behaviour of soldiers towards reproductives of termite genus Prorhinotermes (Isoptera: Rhinotermitidae).
Dolejšová, Klára ; Šobotník, Jan (advisor) ; Klimeš, Petr (referee)
Soldier caste is the oldest altruistic caste in termites, highly specialized for defensive tasks. Therefore, a number of adaptations in anatomy and behaviour can be observed in soldier, lacking in other termite castes. The aim of this study was to verify the hypothesis that in disturbed groups the soldiers will prefer to stand by and defend the reproductives, the most valuable individuals. Therefore, I studied in two species of the genus Prorhinotermes (P. simplex and P. canalifrons) the ability of soldiers to discriminate neotenic reproductives and provide them with defence. In agreement with the initial hypothesis, the soldiers of both species prooved to be able of an instantaneous recognition of reproductives and remained close to them. In P. simplex, the neotenic female was the most attractive individual, while in P. canalifrons, neotenics of both sexes were equally attractive. The observed preference of reproductives appears to occur only with a certain age of the reproductives in incipient colonies, along with their sexual maturation. Caste specificity of cuticular lipids supports the presumption that the caste recognition is based on olphactoric cues in the cuticle of reproductives.

The nutritional importance of polyphenols in berries
MARTANOVÁ, Anna
People's nutrition is inseparable part of our lives. We could include substances, that we know are healtful, to our food. If we don't have enough of the substances, we can see negative effects on human organism. The substances are named micronutrients and vitamins. We could enrich a diet with substances that we think are healthy, but their deficit doesn't case pathological symptoms. Food which we put to this category is possible to name as function food. Function food contains substances which have positive effect on our health. One of the substances are polyphenols. This issue is very interesting for me, because polyphenols are compounds that are among others particulary found in berries, especially in blueberries. Blueberries are berries that are widespread throughout the world. One of the best sources of blueberries is also Sumava, where I come from and where blueberries are well connected. The first part of my thesis is about the functional foods and ingredients that make these foods Functional foods. Ordering: probiotics, prebiotics, synobiotiks, micronutrients, fytochemiks and polyphenols. Farther the first part deals with berries, specializing in blueberry and its properties and composition, which can have a positive impact on human health.In the second part there were two objectives of the work. The first aim of my study was to determine the diet, which includes foods that contain the optimum intake of polyphenols, equivalent to 120 ml of fetal native blueberries. Polyphenols are that part of blueberries, which make them so special. In the diet were preferentially embedded short dishes that have undergone heat treatment. Analyses of polyphenols in foods and beverages I got with the program GEOMED hospital Ceske Budejovice, Inc., Department of Clinical Pharmacology. Results polyphenol content were performed by HPLC. The content of polyphenols in native blueberries was laid as equal to 1 and the contents examined further product was then expressed as a multiple or ratio of the native blueberries. I take into account all these factors when drawing up the model menu. Another aim I have set is to map products in which the content of polyphenol is beneficial. There is a high number of products with blueberry flavour on the market. The content of blueberries, however, is often negligible. The surprising result was the polyphenol content in lemonade Toma, whose relative value ug / ml is 2.59 when compared with the native blueberry, which is placed as equal to 1. After the development work, in which I obtained information from the literature search, the sales network and the Department of Clinical Pharmacology, Hospital Ceske Budejovice, I would like to say that blueberries are an important source of polyphenols and that a diet which will include daily equivalent of receiving polyphenols, may not in any way differ from a regular rational diet. Not even cooking the dish precludes putting together this diet because blueberries are relatively stable against temperature changes. Inclusion of such a diet in the catering equipment could bring a positive impact in the future, especially for older people by improving memory function and balance.
