Rámec pro posouzení kvalitativních hledisek informačních systémů
Tamtam, Abdurrzzag Giuma A ; Molnár, Karol (advisor)
Záměrem předložené disertační práce je porozumět tomu, jak investoři v konkrétním společenském kontextu vnímají význam kvality informačních systémů. Ze studia literatury zabývající se přístupy a rámci hodnocení kvality informačních systémů vyplývá, že tato kvalita je obecně hodnocena z hlediska striktního přístupu. V této práci je ukázáno, že kvalitu informačního systému lze smysluplně pochopit použitím interpretačního paradigmatu a že kvalita informačního systému je definována společensky a ovlivňována kontextem tohoto systému. Studie byla zahájena průzkumem dvaceti libyjských organizací. Podrobnější data byla získána z případové studie dvou vybraných libyjských organizací působících ve veřejném sektoru. Při empirické analýze nashromážděných dat bylo využito rámce mnohočetné perspektivy, který zahrnuje hlediska teorie strukturalizace, pojem mnohočetných perspektiv a metodologii měkkých systémů. V práci se dospělo ke zjištění, že: a) kvalita informačních systémů je pojata šíře, než je tomu u tradiční definice kvality, b) mnohočetné perspektivy kvality informačních systémů jsou ovlivněny opakovanou interakcí mezi investorem a institucionálními vlastnostmi kontextu informačního systému a že c) rozdílné hodnoty v kulturním prostředí a vnějším kontextu ovlivňují rozsah působnosti investora a interakce v kontextu informačního systému. Ze závěru práce vyplývá, že společenská skladba mnohočetných perspektiv kvality informačního systému je ovlivněna strukturalizačními procesy mezi investory a vlastnostmi v kontextu informačního systému.

Vondra, Zdeněk ; Horný, Stanislav (advisor) ; Skrbek, Jan (referee) ; Jurášková, Olga (referee)
Multimedia is a form of communication and sharing knowledge using synergic effect of parallel connected communication channels. Its main use is in producing communications products and services and in design of user interfaces. Main objective of this dissertation is to develop and create a model of multimedia communication for better understanding of the meaning and the purpose of using multimedia forms in communication process. The model will describe a system of elements and parameters of multimedia communication within the internal and external context. Another objective of this dissertation is to develop multimedia communication methodology that will be used for the design, development and evaluations of concepts of multimedia communication. The methodology will be created by applying the model of multimedia communication into the procedure structure. In theoretical way this dissertation is based on analysis of different definitions and approaches to the multimedia communications topic. This is followed by an analysis of communication theories, concepts of media, multimedia, delivery channels, and communication functions. The theoretical part is followed by the outcomes of the research in practice of four different fields of multimedia use. The knowledge gained is analyzed in the following parts in purpose of creating the model of multimedia communication and the methodology which is derived from the model. The methodology is further validated through case studies and the recommendations for further development are formulated. The model and the methodology of multimedia communication created in this dissertation present complex view on multimedia communication topic that is considered as a useful tool for meeting a specific communication purpose. Dissertation provides mechanics for use and study of multimedia communication and also defines the opportunities for further development of the methodology.

Kočí, Jakub ; Sigmund, Tomáš (advisor) ; Benda, Martin (referee)
The aim of this diploma thesis is the preparation and foundation of the Students' Union of the University of Economics in Prague, which is done by Soft systems methodology. In order to achieve this aim, the thesis elaborates a theory of student organizations and student unions in the Czech Republic. It also compares a set of rules governing student organizations at chosen Czech universities with chosen foreign universities. The result of this comparison is that chosen foreign universities have more systematic policies towards their student organizations. The research part of this thesis contains Analysis two (social) and Analysis three (political) from the Soft systems methodology. The results of the research contains defined set of roles, norms, values and a distribution of power in the environment of student organizations at University of Economics. Practical part of the thesis brings two complete learning cycles of the Soft systems methodology including root definitions, CATWOE and models of purposeful activity. Based on these two learning cycles, the thesis defines the general limits of Soft system methodology for the foundation of student union at Czech universities.

The Application of the Soft Systems Methodology to the Problem of Insufficient Information Delivery from the Public Administration of the Town Lysá nad Labem to its Citizens in Public Matters
Galanová, Dagmar ; Šubrta, Václav (advisor) ; Klas, Jan (referee)
The aim of this paper is to analyze the problem of insufficient information delivery from the public administration of the town Lysá nad Labem to its citizens in public matters and to find particular solutions to improve the situation. The problem is being analyzed and partly solved by the soft systems methodology which is best used with complex unstructured problems involving human action. The soft systems methodology provides number of thinking-supportive tools which are used to find out about the problem situation, express particular problems and to find feasible and desirable solutions which lead to improvement. The application of the soft systems methodology brought very detailed analysis of the problem situation from which a number of possible solutions to improve the problem have arisen. One solution proposal offers solutions which hardly intervene in the structure and processes of the present system and are more likely to be implemented in a long term perspective. The other solution proposal consists of solutions which can be implemented in a short term perspective.

Design of web portal for supporting the work of scout leaders
Jung, Petr ; Šubrta, Václav (advisor) ; Klas, Jan (referee)
The goal of my paper is to answer the question, if Czech scouting organization "Junák -- svaz skautů a skautek" needs to implement specialized web portal to support the work of scout leaders. If desirability of such portal is justified, its functionality and possible contribution to solving known problems is examined and described. In first place, the purpose of individual parts of the organization system is analyzed with help of Checkland's Soft System Methodology. Subsequently, all activities leading towards the fulfillment of individual subsystems' purposes are identified and impact of those activities on the new information channel is defined. As a result of the analysis conducted, suggestions for adjustments and modifications of those activities are made to make them more efficient in solving problems previously identified.
