The Public Internet Terminal (PIT) is the Department of Communication initiative that aims to bring electronic communication to all South African citizens. It was launched in 1998 as a joint venture between the Department of Communications (DoC) and the South African Post Office (SAPO).This study postulates that the massive roll out of the Public Internet terminals (PIT‘s) has enhanced the lives of the poor by providing easy access to government services. It further assumes that the PITs are able to facilitate access of eService‘s to all the citizens in particular where electronic services are not freely available such as in the rural and remote under serviced areas of South Africa. In addition, it explores the envisaged value added initiatives stipulated in the memorandum of understanding entered in between the Department of Communication (DOC) and the South African Post Office (SAPO).

This diploma thesis is about Singletary's Integration Infrastructure Model and its practical application. The main goal of the thesis is proposal of application of IT Integration Infrastructure Model from Lester Singletary in practical realization of integration with development of existing eCommerce solution in business practice. In theoretical part there is introduced each point for achieving the goal, which is used to build an appropriate methodology or its consequential application. In the following part there is shortly defined the description of practical application, where is explained how is the creation of methodology for fulfilment of Singletary model approached. After that follows the proposal of methodology, character of particular environment in which is the model applied and the application of the methodology itself as well as creation of the model. The benefit of this thesis is experimental application of proposed methodology, which leads to achievement of Lester Singletary's model which helps to determine easier if the model is suitable for practical application or not. Another benefit is categorisation of the model by chosen solution which simplifies its search and classification.

Skrivandet av rapporter är en väldigt viktig del i många samhällssektorer. Detta genomförs för det mesta manuellt idag. Att kunna automatisera rapportgenereringen har länge varit ett mål då utvecklandet av en sådan lösning skulle spara mycket tid och resurser. Frågan om hur en infrastruktur för automatiserad rapportgenerering kan se ut är väldigt aktuell både förforskning och för organisationer. Försvarsmakten är inget undantag, idag skriver de rapporter manuellt när de använder sig av ett simuleringssystem för fiktiva strider som de senare använder sig av för träning av personal. För att undersöka hur en infrastruktur för automatiserad rapportgenerering kan se ut har vi samarbetat med Totalförsvarets forskningsinstitut (FOI). Det vi presenterar i uppsatsen är en informationsinfrastrukturmodell. Modellen är framtagen ur ett designperspektiv och behandlar en informationsinfrastruktur som är till stöd för ett simuleringssystem. Modellen är utvecklad på så sätt att den tar hänsyn till både den praktiska- och forskningsrelaterade synvinkeln. Med hjälp av krav som samlades in via intervjuer och samtal med FOI, Försvarsmakten och en expert inom området informationsinfrastruktur så tog vi de praktiska aspekterna vid utvecklandet av modellen i beaktande. De forskningsrelaterade aspekterna för utvecklandet av modellen beaktas genom tidigare studier och metoder för att ge modellen en akademisk grund. / Writing reports is very important in many functions of society and is mostly done manually today. To be able to automate the generation of reports has for a long time been a challenge, and a solution would save time and resources. The question of how an infrastructure of an automated report generator could be designed is very relevant for both research and practice. The Swedish Armed Forces is no exception, currently they write reports manually when they use their simulation system for fictional battles which they later on use for training of personnel. We have cooperated with the Swedish Defence Research Agency (FOI) to study this question. In this study, we present an information infrastructure model. The model is based upon a design perspective and concerns an information infrastructure that supports a simulation system. The model takes into account both practical and research related perspectives. With the help of requirements that were gathered via interviews and discussions with FOI, Swedish Armed Forces and an expert within the field of information infrastructure, we took into account practical related aspects in the development of the model. The research related aspects are taken into account by using other studies and methods.

The presented dissertation deals with the problem of deploying the charging infrastructure for electric vehicles in the Czech Republic. The core of the thesis is a mathematical optimization model, which is implemented in the language of MATLAB computing software. The model consists of several sub-units representing separate models of studied sub-problems. The individual chapters of the work describe successively these sub models. The sub models are: demand model of the charging service, model of charging supply, charging simulator model, optimization model and its resolving optimization method. The optimization model is accelerated by parallelization on the graphics card. The optimization method is designed as a case-specific implementation of genetic algorithms on a population of tree-structured individuals. The final chapter deals with an economic aspect of the problem under consideration, the implications of the findings and the role that the optimization model plays in the context under consideration. The main benefit of the work lies in the formulation of the problem as a mathematical model, the accompanying analyses and the provided justifications. Any user with updated data can then use this work along with the attached scripts to find answers to questions about the relationship between electromobility and the charging infrastructure.
