The thesis focuses on the management and functionality of the Network Operations Center, whose function is to maintain optimal network operations on various platforms, media and communication channels. The department is in a company that develops AAA game titles. The first part defines the theoretical basis. The next section introduces the company together with the analysis of the functioning of the department and communication. The last part is devoted to the design of the organizational structure, which includes the process of creating a new job. The process involves the division of activities, the recruitment process and the economic appreciation itself.

The thesis focuses on the networking topic. The networking is defined and compared to other terms that are often used as a synonym, e.g. social capital. Three contexts are researched. The first study aims networking online, its specifics, advantages and possible risks. The second part studies selected correlations of networking activities of University of economics alumni. The third study searches out the networking activities and standards of Czech managers in the field of finance. The results are connected with the possible usage in both fields, the one of university education and management too.

nÃo hà / Devido ao crescente uso de computadores e a forte dependÃncia dos mesmos em vÃrias aplicaÃÃes, as UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supplies) vÃm adquirindo cada vez mais importÃncia. Estes dispositivos encontram-se muitas vezes dentro de um contexto de um sistema distribuÃdo, o que fortalece a necessidade de gerenciamento dos mesmos. Devido à grande utilizaÃÃo das UPS em computadores, e devido ao fato destes, por sua vez, estarem inseridos em um ambiente de redes TCP/IP, torna-se bastante viÃvel a idÃia de se usar um sistema de gerenciamento que seja compatÃvel com esse ambiente, e que faÃa uso de suas potencialidades. No presente trabalho à apresentado a implementaÃÃo de um sistema de gerenciamento SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) para UPS que possibilita o gerenciamento de um nÃmero arbitrÃrio de UPS, e que permite a autenticaÃÃo remota para gerentes, facilitando o uso para um maior nÃmero de dispositivos. Detalha-se a implementaÃÃo do sistema bem como os testes realizados. No final do trabalho à apresentada uma proposta para trabalhos futuros na Ãrea. / The reliability of a computer system is based not only on the computer itself, but also on its related power system. For that reason, more and more critical systems are counting on UPSs (Uninterruptible Power Supplies) to account for a continuous supply of power. Although the task of managing an UPS for a standalone system be quite straightforward, when it comes to computer distributed systems that task has to follow an equally distributed approach. Depending on the strategy used to manage that distributed UPS network, this task may be very complex. However, keeping in mind that most computer systems in a distributed architecture make use of TCP/IP to be logically connected, one could profit from the facilities provided by this protocol and design a management strategy that makes use of it. In fact, TCP/IP is not the only suite of protocols used to interconnect computer systems. SNMP (Single Network Management Protocol) is also frequently used as a way of managing (hardware and/or software) devices associated with computers. This dissertation proposes and implements a way of managing distributed UPSs by using SNMP, taking advantage of all the facilities furnished by the protocol. This works describes how the use of SNMP makes it possible to manage an arbitrarily number of UPSs remotely. This makes the design of UPS management systems a relatively easy task, and contributes to introduce a high degree of flexibility on the task of managing distributed UPSs. Finally, it is described how the system and tests were implemented as well as proposals for future work is presented.

This thesis analyzes the difficulties of managing the security of an enterprise network. The problem that this thesis study deals with is the central management of a large number and variety of services that provide organization-wide network and information security. This study addresses two problem areas: how to better manage the security of a network, and how to explain the security issues to upper management better. The study proposes a Security Management System (SMS) to be used for network security management, monitoring and reporting purposes. The system is a custom made, central management solution, which combines the critical performance indicators of the security devices and presents the results via web pages.
