The objective of my thesis is to describe overall technological concept and organizational scheme od payment cards and outline trends and development in the near future. There has been a big effort for industry standardization (e.g. security standards). It describes also advantages and disadvantages of payment cards and means of authorization. The infomation mentioned here will be used in later part, in case studies. My 3-years working experience as a project manager at Wincor Nixdorf helped to further investigate these scenarios. This company is one of the market leaders and key players in banking and retail industry. Since the cost related issues are very importnant (especially in the time of crisis), I analysed and compared several scenarios of payment system installation in retail.

The purpose of this thesis is to create procedure for implementation of tourist cards. The qualitative research emphesize the consumer point of view for such a project according to economic theory of consumer bahavior as well as the duration and price of the tourist cards in more than forty European cities. Benchmarking for chosen cities was made. The qualitative research focuses on the administrator's point of view based on interviews with managers of tourist card projects. Furthermore finance and cost --benefit analysis showing a contribution of the project to the local economy is provided. .With understanding nature of the tourist card system a proposal for Brno and the South Moravia region was made on behalf of the obtained results.

The work deals with the registration of incoming patients to the physician. In the theoretical section summarizes the current technical solutions used in practice to record the waiting clients to provide various services. One chapter is devoted to describing the identifiers occurring in the population. The result is to design a custom solution based on reading data from health care cards.

The goal of this project is to develop a analyzer of communication between a smart card and reader terminal. The analyzer should be able to diagnose and control correlations of standards.  The thesis include description of standards to be familiar with and a detail description of standard ISO/IEC 7816-3, that introduce monitored protocol. The thesis also involves development kit features and a design of application.

This master's thesis deals with design and implementation of program unit Access System for BUT Information System Apollo. The goal of this work is to analyze Oracle technology and chosen database schemes of access system. After that use results of analysis to design and to implement of application which provide functionality to creating access to the identification cards readers and support inspection of passing through identification cards readers. Project is creating in Borland Delphi 7.

This thesis aims to identify and evaluate the risks related to payment cards and their use. The main focus is the methods used to commit card related fraud and possible methods of protection related to this topic. First of all, the technology that is nowadays used in relation with the payment cards is analyzed and its weaknesses and attacks used to gather card information are described. After that, statistical data related to card fraud are analyzed in relation with different world regions. Qualitative analysis of risk related to payment card use is performed on the statistical data of ECB for the cards issued in Czech Republic. The qualitative analysis is then followed by recommendations that are designed to limit the risk's impact or probability. To verify the recommendations, a survey is carried out.

This thesis deals with authentication by mobile phone. The mobile phone with operating system Android was chosen as authentication device. The Eclipse development environment was used for the implementation of applications. The aim of the thesis was to study and practically implement access system for mobile phones, where the Bluetooth LE and NFC interface are used for data transmission between the mobile device and reader. Firstly, the thesis deals with the client application, which is installed on the authenticated device, and then is focused on the characteristics of the application which is running on the reader. Both client and reader applications describe the design of graphical user interface, process of authentication via Bluetooth LE and NFC, analyse packages and classes, and eventually perform security analysis. The thesis also presents schema of authentication protocol HM14.

This master thesis deals with the usage of smart cards in the area of digital signature. The descriptive part of this work outlines the basic principles of digital signature, smart cards typology and current most important application areas of smart cards. The first aim of the analytic part of this work is to evaluate actual situation on the smart cards market and to estimate future market trends. The second aim is to provide summary of new technological trends and areas, in which the usage of smart cards can be expected. These new technological trends and areas are described on the basis of survey, which was realized in the company OKsystem. Part of this work serves information about practical solution OKsmart and the analysis of its future development trends.
