The diploma thesis is pursuing the analysis of principles on which the technical analysis is based, with focus on the relevancy. The attention will be paid to the fact whether technical analysis is able to generate successful trade signals and thus be recognized as scientific discipline. We will try to remove the subjectivity (for which is often criticized) by means of statistical methods. The diploma also includes basics of psychological analysis (especially new stances). In work, I evaluate whether technical analysis can be informative and add value to investment process. I also compare the returns based on technical analysis with Buy and Hold strategy.

The diploma thesis deals with the foreign development cooperation of the Czech Republic. It assesses previous trends of development cooperation analyzing concepts and tools in terms of bilateral assistance or commitments to international organizations. It reviews not only the public sector, but also non-profit organizations and private entities. The aim is to investigate to what extent the economic growth of countries is affected by development assistance and to what by developing countries themselves and if the Czech development aid has fundamentally contributed to the support of democracy, private enterprise, protection of private property and human rights. The part of the thesis is practical application on Serbia, one of the largest recipients of the Czech development cooperation in recent years. In conclusion the thesis evaluates current concepts and introduces solutions and recommendations for further development of the aid, both domestic or global scale.

.Wireless Sensor Networks importance is rapidly increasing and becoming a vital element in the process of gathering information in almost every scientific and practical aspect, but since the sensor node is usually a small device and has a battery with very limited life, power consumption is turning out to be the main drawback of this significant technology thus a lot of work and researches is going on to find new ways to reduce the power needed to operate those sensors. One of the main power consuming functionality of this technology is the wireless transmission of the data that the sensors collect across the fields [5][6]. In order to overcome this restriction, many proposals have been made to create an optimal algorithm that can guide the way each sensor node transmit it's data in order to reduce the power needed for the transmission process. This research focuses on creating a simplified scheduling algorithm that can break up the transmission waves into chains of nodes, so that each node transmits the data that has been collected to the best available node around, and so on till the information is propagated to the main server that collects all the information and analyze them.This newly proposed algorithm takes many attributes into considerations, but the main ones are the geographical information and the load that each senor node carries. A simulation model has been created to verify the effectiveness of the algorithm and to compare how close the results to the ideal network configuration are.

本文沿襲事件研究法的精神，首次將有無資訊的分類帶入漲跌幅限制的實證研究中。過去的文獻對於漲跌幅限制的效果，一直無法在理論或者實證上得到一致的結論，綜觀正反論辯，投資人對於資訊能否理性反應到股價上，是雙方交鋒的重點，因此假若能將造成漲跌幅事件背後的資訊本質釐清，將有助於吾人了解漲跌幅限制真正的影響。 本文利用個股的公開消息定義漲跌停事件的資訊本質，觀察漲跌停事件前後二十四小時股價、波動性與週轉率的變化，結果比較支持漲跌幅限制可以抑制過度反應的說法，不過漲跌幅限制卻在漲跌停板的前後，均造成較大的波動性與週轉率。此外，有資訊的漲跌停事件與沒有資訊的漲跌停事件，兩者的差異不如推論明顯，可能原因是存在本文無法捕捉的私有資訊。

The diploma thesis is focused on the analysis of the current situation of the ambulatory information system AMBIS and its components in MEDCENTRUM, s.r.o .. On the basis of the analyzes it proposes appropriate measures to improve the current state of the information system. The proposed changes should bring improvements, simplification of the patient ordering system, clarity and reconciliation of ordering processes and increase the overall security of the Information System.

The annual budget cycle in urban road/transport authorities by implication requires transport infrastructure projects to be ranked in terms of their relative value, to enable project selection by starting from the most deserving proposal. This follows from the fact that the total cost of feasible projects practically always exceeds available funds, signalling the need for some kind of selection protocol. Cost benefit analysis (CBA), when applied in a narrow sense, is not suitable for this purpose as it focuses on economic efficiency only. Attempts to broaden it have been criticized by some scholars. Although the diversity of impacts points to a multi-criteria analysis (MCA) approach, this is considered unscientific in certain quarters; at best, its practical value needs to be demonstrated. In the case of the City of Tshwane (CoT), problems with current project appraisal are evident in that different methods – none of which is defensible – are used, sometimes resulting in rankings that are contradictory. This thesis therefore attempts the following: (a) to develop a basic approach that combines the best elements of traditional methods; (b) to customize this approach to the specific context and needs of road authorities in the municipal sphere of government, using CoT as an example; and (c) to demonstrate the application of the resulting appraisal framework, utilizing appropriate decision-support software for this purpose. Recommendations include the following: An appraisal framework should combine CBA and MCA by adopting an overall MCA approach with economic efficiency – focusing on the optimal allocation of scarce resources – as one of the decision criteria. For completeness‟ sake, three additional decision criteria are deemed necessary: equity (focusing on income distribution impacts); sustainability (focusing on environmental impacts); and compatibility (focusing on the alignment of projects with stated goals and objectives). This framework may well apply to road authorities in other spheres of government – the optimum application in each case will depend on the composition of the relevant decision-making team. The inherent nature of project appraisal requires a two-phased approach in all cases: the evaluation of mutually exclusive alternatives, followed by the ranking of independent projects. State-of-the-art decision support software is indispensable for implementing this framework. / Transport Economics / D. Com. (Transport Economics)

Objective: The objective is to examine if long terms of payment are created because of a perceived zero-sum game in the cash-to-cash cycles between companies. The study will also examine if dependence effects the dependent companies Cash-to-Cash-cycle because of long terms of payment. Scientific method: The study uses a qualitative and a quantitative method, where primary data is collected from semi-structured interviews. Additional primary data is collected from an unstructured interview with an expert in the field of which is examined. Additional data has been collected from the studied companies’ annual reports. Theoretical references: The primary theory has been Game theory, where the researchers have used this theory to analyze the behaviors of the companies. This theory has been reinforced by the theory Pareto efficiency to help analyze the strategy which gives the highest net-outcome. The theory Cash-to- Cash has also been a focal point in the study, which has been used in concert with Supply chain finance and Supply chain management. This has been done to be able to further analyze the behaviors of the companies and the cooperation in the “supply chain”. Result: The result shows that there seems to exist a perceived zero-sum game in the cash-to-cash cycles between companies. The consequence of this is that the companies in a dominant position use a strategy that prolongs payables outstanding and shortens accounts receivables. This in turn prolongs the cash-to- cash cycles for the dominant companies suppliers. Focus to improve the Cash-to-Cash-cycles for both companies is very small or non-existent. The authors want to emphasize that additional research is needed within this area, where other contributing factors can be effecting the company’s decisions. / Syfte: Studien syftar till att undersöka om ofördelaktiga betalningsvillkor skapas på grund av ett uppfattat nollsummespel inom Cash-to-Cash-cykler mellan företag. Studien syftar även till att undersöka om beroendeförhållanden påverkar beroende aktörers Cash-to-Cash-cykel på grund av ofördelaktiga betalningsvillkor. Metod: Studien använde en metodtriangulering, där primärdata samlades in via semistrukturerade intervjuer. Ytterligare primärdata samlades in via en ostrukturerad intervju med en expert inom området. Slutligen har data samlats in angående intervjuobjektens årsredovisning. Teoretisk referensram: Den primära teorin har varit Game theory, där forskarna använt teorin för att kunna analysera aktörernas beteenden. Denna teori har förstärkts av ytterligare teorier såsom Paretooptimalitet som hjälper att analysera utfall som ger högst möjlig nytta. Teorier angående Cash-to-Cash har även de varit centrala i arbetet som har kopplats till Supply chain management samt Supply chain finance för att ytterligare kunna analysera beteenden och data angående samarbeten i kedjor av aktörer. Resultat: Resultatet visar att det verkar finnas ett uppfattat nollsummespel inom cash-to-cash-cykeln mellan företagen. Detta leder till att aktörer med maktpositioner utgår från en strategi som innebär att förlänga betaltiderna för leverantörer, som då förlänger leverantörernas Cash-to-Cash-cykel. Fokus på att förbättra Cash-to-Cash-cyklerna mellan företagen är väldigt liten eller obefintlig. Författarna vill dock tydliggöra att ytterligare forskning kring ämnet behövs för att kunna säkerställa resultatet, då andra faktorer kan ha påverkat aktörernas beslut och beteenden.
