A pesquisa sobre observância tributária floresceu no campo econômico, tendo como estudos seminais as obras de Allingham e Sandmo (1972) e Srinivasan (1973). Esses artigos basearam-se na teoria de Becker (1968) sobre crime e punição, aceitando o paradigma econômico clássico, que parte do pressuposto de que os indivíduos adotam comportamentos racionais. Nas últimas décadas, contudo, muitos pesquisadores notaram que esse paradigma, do qual derivou aquilo que veio a ser chamado pela academia de \"paradigma do crime\", explicava apenas parcialmente o comportamento do contribuinte. Surge, então, toda uma linha de pesquisa contrapondo esse paradigma racional, partindo da constatação de que o comportamento do contribuinte é muito mais complexo do que inicialmente se supunha, merecendo uma análise multidisciplinar, ou seja, que não se restrinja ao campo econômico, mas que também abarque outras disciplinas. Esse novo paradigma foi denominado pela academia de \"paradigma do serviço\" que, em linhas gerais, contempla outros fatores envolvidos no ato de pagar tributos, inclusive psicológicos, pressupondo, de tal modo, que o contribuinte não é um indivíduo racional unicamente preocupado em maximizar sua utilidade, devendo ser visto pela administração pública como uma espécie de cliente, e recebendo tratamento adequado e serviços públicos de qualidade em contrapartida ao cumprimento de suas obrigações tributárias. O presente estudo faz uma apreciação dos dois paradigmas, introduzindo nessa avaliação conceitos da ciência denominada Análise do Comportamento, cujos ensinamentos sobre a aprendizagem e o comportamento humano têm o potencial de contribuir de forma significativa para o entendimento do assunto. Testando os pressupostos teóricos apresentados no decorrer do trabalho, foram realizados dois estudos empíricos, tomando-se como base o modelo criado pelo pesquisador e psicólogo Erich Kirchler, denominado Slippery Slope Framework, que confirma estudos anteriores e demonstra que tanto punições quanto recompensas são instrumentos eficazes no combate à evasão fiscal, sugerindo que a integração dos paradigmas \"do crime\" e \"do serviço\", bem como a inserção dos princípios da Análise do Comportamento nesta análise é um caminho promissor no combate à evasão fiscal. / Research on tax compliance has arisen in the economic field with seminal studies based upon the works of Allingham and Sandmo (1972) and Srinivasan (1973). Such articles were based on Becker\'s theory (1968) on crime and punishment, accepting the classic economic paradigm, which presupposes that individuals show rational behaviors. Nevertheless, in the past decades, many researchers have noticed that such paradigm, which gave rise to what is referred to, by the academy, as \"crime paradigm\", explained the behavior of taxpayers solely in part, and an entire line of research opposing such rational paradigm arose, based upon the verification that the behavior of taxpayers is much more complex than what was originally presumed, deserving a multidisciplinary analysis, i.e., not restricted to the economic field, but that, further, encompasses other subjects. Such new paradigm was designated by the academy as \"service paradigm\" that, in general, contemplates other factors involved in the act of paying taxes, including psychological factors, thus presupposing that taxpayers are not rational individuals solely concerned about maximizing the function thereof, they should be deemed, by the public administration, to be clients, and should receive appropriate treatment and quality public services in return for complying with their tax obligations. This study analyzes two paradigms, introducing in such analysis concepts of the science called Behavior Analysis, the teachings on learning and human behavior of which have potential to significantly contribute to better understanding the subject. Testing the theoretical assumptions presented throughout the study, two empirical analyses were conducted, based upon the model created by researcher and psychologist Erich Kirchler, referred to as Slippery Slope Model, which confirms previous studies and indicates that both punishment and reward are effective tools to fight against tax evasion, suggesting that integrating \"crime\" and \"service\" paradigms and inserting concepts of the Behavior Analysis Science in this analysis is highly promising to fight against tax evasion.

The thesis focuses on advanced programming constructs and techniques of the Swift programming language. At the beginning programming paradigms that are supported by the Swift design (object-oriented and functional) are introduced. Concepts of each paradigm are described and Swift is then evaluated by the level of support for these paradigms. Following programming constructs are described in-depth: working with variables, optional types, enumerated types, functions and closures. Creating of custom operators and subscripts. Operations with protocols, generic types and parallel program execution. Error handling with throwing functions. Detailed explanation of value types and their differences from reference type is given too. Thesis also explains nested types and all higher-order functions in Swift. At the end are described extensions; specifically extension of computed property, initialization function, function, subscript, nested type and protocol and generic types extensions. In the last section of the thesis these advanced programming techniques are described; function chaining and composition, structure saving, performance optimization of value types, reflection in the Swift programming language and how modules and namespaces work. At the end protocol-oriented programming is introduced.

Considerando la fundación con sede en la eficiencia por la prontitud y efectividad de los derechos, el problema central de este trabajo es verificar la eficacia de la justicia en la Corte Civil Especial para alejarlo de la Ley de Enjuiciamiento Civil. La creación de tribunales especiales surgió de un mejor acceso a la justicia, y de forma rápida y sencilla con el fin de resolver los conflictos de orden de manera menos compleja. Después de su creación, hace dos décadas, el sistema todavía recibe las prácticas de los procedimientos civiles tradicionales en los que existe la burocracia, la formalidad y el retardo de ir en contra de los principios de la Corte de Reclamos Menores. Para responder a la pregunta inicial, es necesario establecer los principios que guían la Corte Civil Especial, entre ellos, la velocidad y la eficiencia; una segunda vez para informar las actuaciones de la Corte Especial desde las audiencias de conciliación, la instrucción hasta que la sentencia mediante la comparación con el Código de Procedimiento Civil; y, finalmente, analizar la posibilidad de desprendimiento del Código de Procedimiento Civil de la Corte Especial y luego verificar su eficacia. Para el desarrollo de este tema y los objetivos, adopta el método de enfoque hipotéticodeductivo, teniendo en cuenta la discusión teórica y la naturaleza bibliográfica. Como método de procedimiento funcionará si el método comparativo en el análisis de las experiencias del proceso de corte de reclamos menores y el Código de Procedimiento Civil. / O presente trabalho apresenta o paradigma da eficiência nos Juizados Especiais Cíveis diante do Código de Processo Civil. Considerando a eficiência como fundamento base para a celeridade processual e efetividade de direitos, o problema central deste trabalho consiste em verificar a eficiência da justiça no Juizado Especial Civil ao distanciá-lo do Código de Processo Civil. A criação dos Juizados Especiais surgiu para o melhor acesso à justiça e de forma rápida e simples com o objetivo de resolver conflitos de ordem de menor complexidade. Após sua criação, há duas décadas, o sistema recebe ainda práticas do processo civil tradicional, no qual há burocracia, formalidade e morosidade que vão de encontro aos princípios do Juizado Especial Cível. Para responder ao questionamento inicial, é necessário averiguar os princípios que norteiam o Juizado Especial Civil, dentre eles, o da celeridade e o da eficiência; num segundo momento relatar o processo do Juizado Especial desde as audiências de conciliação, instrução até a sentença comparandoo com o Código de Processo Civil; e por fim analisar a possibilidade do distanciamento do Código de Processo Civil do Juizado Especial para então verificar a sua eficiência. Para o desenvolvimento do referido tema e objetivos, adota-se o método de abordagem hipotético-dedutivo, considerando a discussão teórica e sua natureza bibliográfica. Como método de procedimento se trabalhará o método comparativo quando da análise das experiências do processo do Juizado Especial Cível e do Código de Processo Civil.

Tyrimo objektas: Straipsniai, kurie analizuojami besiremiant atsirinktais raktiniais žodžiais, siekiant pateikti pagrindinius mokymosi neuromokslo aspektus. Tyrimo problema: Mokymosi neuromokslas, ugdymo įtaka smegenų struktūroms ir funkcijoms, ir smegenų plastiškumo ypatumai yra plačiai nagrinėjamos temos tarp užsienio mokslininkų, tačiau Lietuvoje mažai tyrinėjamos. Vis dar pastebima, kad mokymosi įstaigose per dažnai naudojamas tradicinis mokymo modelis, besimokantieji stengiasi įsiminti teikiamą informaciją ir pritaikyti įgytas žinias. Tačiau mūsų smegenys nėra pritaikytos mintinam arba tradiciniam mokymosi modeliui, į mokymosi procesą turi būti įtraukti regėjimo, klausos ir kinesteziniai pojūčiai, tam, kad smegenys būtų aktyvinamos. Tyrimo tikslas: Apžvelgti šiuolaikinę mokslinę literatūrą, apimančią neuromokslo požiūrį į žmogaus mokymosi gebėjimus. Tyrimo uždaviniai: 1. Išnagrinėti galvos smegenų plastiškumo ypatumus. 2. Išnagrinėti kaip ugdymas gali įtakoti galvos smegenų struktūras, funkcijas ir elgseną. 3. Išnagrinėti dabartinę situaciją, kas tai yra neurougdymo mokslas. 4. Panagrinėti mokymosi neuromokslo raidą ir pokyčius. 5. Išanalizuoti naujausią mokslinę literatūrą apimančią įvairių sričių neurougdymą. Tyrimo rezultatai: 1. Galvos smegenys yra labai plastiškos ir kuo jos labiau aktyvinamos, tuo labiau kinta jų struktūra. Smegenų plastiškumui įtaką daro šie veiksniai: sensorinė ir motorinė patirtis, mokymasis, natūralus atpildas, socialiniai žaidimai, senėjimas...

The problem of the research: Studying neuroeducation, the influence of education on brain structures and functions, and the peculiarities of brain plasticity are widely analysed topics among the foreign scientists, but in Lithuania they are little analysed. It can still be noticed that in educational institutions a traditional teaching model is used too often, the learners try remembering the given information and to apply the gained knowledge. But our brain is not adapted for the said or traditional studying model; the studying process should include the visual, auditory and kinaesthetic senses for the brain to be activated. The aim of the research: To review the modern nonfiction covering the human neuroeducation of various abilities. The tasks of the research: 1. To analyse the peculiarities of the plasticity of the brain. 2. To analyse how education can influence the structures, functions and behaviour of the brain. 3. To analyse the recent situation, what is neuroeducational science. 4. To analyse the development and changes of studying neuroscience. 5. To analyse the newest nonfiction covering human studying abilities. The results of the research: 1. After analysing the nonfiction, it is possible to define the main factors which have influence on the plasticity of the brain: sensory and motor experience... [to full text]

CONTENTS vi Title: Implementation of parallel query processing in PostgreSQL Author: Bc. Daniel Vojtek Department: Department of Software Engineering Supervisor: Mgr. Július Štroffek Supervisor's e-mail address: julo@stroffek.cz Abstract: Parallel query processing can help with processing of huge amounts of data stored in database systems. The aim of this diploma the- sis was to explore the possibilities, analyze, design and finally implement parallel query processing in open source database system PostgreSQL. I used a Master/Worker design pattern, in which standard PostgreSQL backend process is a master. As workers I used processes created from postmaster. In the thesis I focused on preparing an infrastructure nec- essary for parallel processing. I defined a new top level memory context over shared memory, which allows efficient and convenient memory al- locations. Then I implemented creation of new worker processes, based on master process requirements. To be able to control these workers I defined controlling structures using state machines. Then I implemented parallel sort operation and SQL operator UNION ALL using this infras- tructure. The result of this diploma thesis is not only implementation of infrastructure and some parallel operations, but also description of the problems encountered during the...

This theoretical study attempts to reflect the general problematic of modern society in complexity, the gradual constitution and development of estranged being as well as the contemporary effort to interconnect being as an integral whole. The study also contains an analysis of altered states of consciousness, which are understood as a certain means to view the world as integrated. We use the notion of consciousness to define the altered states of consciousness. The structure of the thesis is divided into five chapters. While the first chapter is focused on description and analysis of alienation and other negative aspects of modern society, the second chapter is based on this reflection of the crisis of western society. Its subject is the work of several scientists who contribute by their works to a qualitative change of the mechanistic and materialistic conception of the world and who promote holistic approach to reality. The key topic of the third chapter is phenomenon of consciousness and interdisciplinary theories of consciousness. We deal also with the qualitative altered states of consciousness, that offer some potential. The fourth chapter concentrates on the history and methods of research of altered states of consciousness and delineates their basic characteristic and their functions. The...
