Kučera, Jan ; Buchalcevová, Alena (advisor) ; Hostomský, Stanislav (referee)
Celková kvalita informačních systémů závisí na kvalitě softwarových produktů, které jsou jejich součástí. Kvalita softwaru je ovlivněna řadou faktorů, mezi které patří proces jejich vývoje. Cílem metodik vývoje IS/ICT je kvalitní produkt a tudíž i spokojený zákazník. Testování softwaru je proces, při kterém dochází k ověření, zda softwarový produkt odpovídá definovaným požadavkům. Tato práce se zabývá hodnocením a porovnáním procesů testování softwaru, které definují následující metodiky: Extrémní programování, Rational Unified Process a metodiky založené na Microsoft Solutions Framework. První část této práce se obecně zabývá pojmy kvality softwaru, testování softwaru a metodikám vývoje IS/ICT. Přístup k hodnocení metodik je popsán ve druhé části. Samotné hodnocení metodik a jeho výsledky jsou náplní třetí části práce. Protože užití nástrojů a automatizace je jedním z hodnotících kritérií, jsou zde stručně popsány také testovací nástroje určené pro hodnocené metodiky.

The Model of Financial Compensation for placement of a Deep Geological Repository of Radioactive Waste in the Czech republic in period from 2010 to 2016
Englerová, Anna ; Zeman, Martin (advisor) ; Vebrová, Ludmila (referee)
Author examines a way of allocation of governmental financial resources to municipalities in locations preselected for deep geological repository. She is searching for a way how to add a motivational incentive to the process of allocation of financial resources in order to improve municipalities attitude towards deep geological repository. Hypothesis, examined in this thesis, contains two related questions. It is assumed that (1) amount and structure of financial resources can significantly affect municipalities decision making and also that (2) current mechanism of allocation of compensations is ineffective and does not create sufficient incentives. Currently (end of the year 2016), negotiations between government and municipalities are in crisis despite significant financial compensation from government nuclear account to the municipalities. This thesis have potential to change municipalities negative stance on deep geological repository through motivational model of resource allocation. Theoretical part reviews basic economic background and introduces historical, sociological, technological and economic views of radioactivity and deep geological repository. In practical part author analyzes socio-economic situation, compares evolution of transfers from government to municipalities with their attitude towards deep geological repository in time and shows that current system of resource allocation does not motivate the municipalities to change their stance on deep geological repository. That confirms second part of our hypothesis. Author also proposes a motivational model of resource alllocation. She confirms its viability by comparing it with similar models from other countries, by surveying mayors of concerned municipalities and also by examining experts opinion. Verification of the model confirmed its motivational effect. By that, first assumption of our hypothesis, that structure of resource allocation can significantly affect municipalities decision making, was confirmed.

The last chapter deals with the TOGAF framework where Architecture Development Method is described. This means how Enterprise Architecture model is created and how to implement changes into the layers according to the TOGAF framework. Simultaneously the last section of this chapter describes the reference models which provide graphical overview of all abstractions layers. The practical part of the thesis elaborates on the theoretical part using the Architecture Development Method process in order to create the Enterprise Architecture model according to TOGAF framework.

Firstly the business model is decomposed into vision mission and companys values to the companys strategy and business goals in order to grasp further understanding of business processes detailed description. Subsequently the abovementioned aspects are recomposed to create process map which provides the management overview. The application layer undergoes the same process; nonetheless the process map is replaced by information system description and reference model creation. Once the models are created the thesis compares them with the business and strategic goals. The benefit brought by this thesis is critical evaluation of current status to propose changes to achieve target architacture according business and strategic goals established by management.
