In the introductory part I brefly deal with the production and processing of metals. The following chapters contain complete information about the manufacture of brass and chronologically from acceptance of material to the finished instruments intended for sale. To illustrate and better idea are enclosed Pictures taken in the faktory of musical instruments, to which it is possible to see the individual steps and production details.

The diploma thesis deals with embouchure problems during brass instruments playing. It draws from experience of the practical players and deduces an advice for interpretes, who meet these problems.

The Lissom project deals with the hardware-software co-design methodology. In this project, an integrated desktop environment for a design of multiprocessor systems on chip was developed. This environment can be used also for developing applications for multiprocessor systems. One part of the environment is a debugger that can be used to debug single core systems. In this thesis, a single processor debugger tool is described in detail and an extension to this tool is proposed and implemented based on the Nexus standard. The extended debugger allows debugging of multiprocessor systems.

This thesis is focused on the Electronic toll system as a regulatory action for traffic management. All sorts of transportation have detrimental effects on the environment and ultimately the public health. Therefore, the mail aim of the thesis is to evaluate the effectiveness of electronic toll systems as a tool for traffic regulation within cities. To this end a comparison of available technologies by several criteria is presented and optimal solutions including the order of preference of specific technologies are suggested. Modern electronic toll systems enable variable setting of the toll amounts to reflect specific needs of particular towns and cities such as reduction of vehicle entry, noise or emissions as well as congestions of traffic and other issues. The text is accompanied by examples of possible traffic management by the means of an electronic toll system.

The goal of this work is to analyze systems Maven and Gradle and to compare one against the other. Whilst I was analyzing both the systems user guides in Czech language were created. To achieve the set of goals of the thesis I had to use user guides and books that were written in English as a source of information. The user guides describes the system basics, dependency management, testing and multi-project builds. Comparisons between the two systems were created from information from the user guides and personal experi-ence of the author. The practical part of the thesis contains files for build application in Maven and Gradle.
