To enhance test security of high stakes tests, it is vital to understand the way various exposure control strategies function under various IRT models. To that end the present dissertation focused on the performance of several exposure control strategies under the generalized partial credit model with an item pool of 100 and 200 items. These procedures are relatively easy to implement and have shown promise as an alternative to more complex exposure control strategies. Through unique algorithms these procedures select an item for administration from a subset of items in the item pool. The five procedures examined for efficacy were the modified within .10 logits, restricted modified within .10 logits, randomesque, restricted randomesque, and progressive restricted procedures. The modified within .10 logits, restricted modified within .10 logits, and randomesque, and restricted randomesque procedures select an item for administration from a subset of optimal items. To test the effect of the number of items available for selection in this subset, 3, 6, and 9 items were made available for selection in these procedures. Maximum information item selection was used as a base line, no exposure control, condition. The progressive restricted, restricted randomesque, and restricted modified within .10 logits procedures were found to optimally protect test security while not significantly degrading measurement precision. The restricted forms of the randomesque and modified within .10 logits procedures proved superior to their base procedures, particularly in controlling average maximum exposure rate. The incrementation of item group size in the modified within .10 logits, restricted modified within .10 logits, and randomesque, and restricted randomesque procedures demonstrated that increasing the item group size provided better test security while not significantly degrading measurement precision. Additionally, in general, the increase of the item pool size from 100 to 200 improved measurement precision and test security. Implications towards practical application are discussed and directions for future research are suggested. / text

This master's thesis deals with wireless networks, mainly about the WiFi. It deals with summary of individual security mechanism both theoretically and using them in real hardware. Mainly it is interested in the security of the individual mechanisms and their weaknesses, which cause rupture of security. At each chapter the ideas and methods, that the attackers are trying for infiltration of wireless networks and decrypt encryption WEP, WPA or WPA2, are outlined. The principle of the authentication of the WiFi by the authentication server and its options, which is connected with directory service LDAP, is also explained in this thesis. The penultimate chapter deals with the summary of security mechanisms and references that should be adhered by design of the WiFi for the provision of the high security. The ending of the master's thesis is devoted to social engineering and its most famous representatives.

This work is focused on the implementation of functional tests within the software project in the field of energy in the company Unicorn. The theoretical part describes in general the project methodology of software development and the methodology Rational Unified Process (RUP). In addition, the test methods are included, and the quality management model FURPS+. The last section introduces functional tests, including a description of those that are used to test the developed application. The practical part consists of description of the energy project Nemo Link, developed application Nemo Link Dispatch System (NDS), individial application modules, test enviroment, used tools and designed test methodology. Based on this methodology, individual selected tests are performed and evaluated.
