At the beginning of my thesis, the risk of floods in the territory of the Czech Republic is generally characterized which is followed by basic legal documents governing flood protection. The characteristics of the territory on which this thesis focuses is presented in the next section, which is describes in detail the administrative district of the municipality with extended powers (MEP) of Týn nad Vltavou, the basic description of its hydrological basin and waterways and, of course, the flood profile of the individual municipalities. The following section explains the term of flood, classification of floods and a detailed description of flood risks within detail the administrative district of the MEP of Týn nad Vltavou emphasizing the risk of formation a special flood. This is followed a list of complex activities and measures aimed at preventing and eliminating the threats to the health, lives and property of the citizens, society and the environment during floods. It also discusses planning in the field of flood protection and the classification of flood plans. Emphasis is placed on the documentation of flood protection of the administrative district of the MEP of Týn nad Vltavou that is associated with the activities of flood protection authorities. The section discusses in detail their activities during floods as well as when there are no floods. The function of flood committee of the MEP Týn nad Vltavou is mentioned detailing the description of activities of its individual members. The objectives of this thesis were aimed at finding out about the level of prepared flood protection documentation processed, analysing the activities of flood protection authorities and examining their knowledge about the issue of flooding. All the objectives were directed to the administrative district of the MEP Týn nad Vltavou and its flood protection authorities. Through a sociological survey among the flood protection authorities of the administrative district of the MEP Týn nad Vltavou that was conducted in the form of an anonymous questionnaire testing their knowledge in the field of flood protection. The results obtained were subjected to statistical evaluation, which, together with graphical representation, is of part of the thesis.

No. of bitstreams: 0 / Desde que foi reconhecida a importância de se planejar um turismo sustentável, tem-se buscado ferramentas adequadas para monitorá-lo nas destinações turísticas, tornando esse um dos principais desafios da academia científica de estudos do turismo na atualidade. Diante desse contexto, o desafio apresenta-se ainda maior, quando tratamos de turismo em unidades de conservação, tendo em vista que envolve um ambiente altamente sensível e comunidades em seu entorno que podem ter, no desenvolvimento dessa atividade, sua principal renda econômica. Assim, o que se propõe neste estudo é analisar a aplicabilidade e a eficiência metodológica do monitoramento que visa ao auxílio na construção da sustentabilidade do turismo, em unidades de conservação, através de um estudo de caso no Parque Estadual do Jalapão, localizado no Estado do Tocantins, Brasil. Prioriza-se a investigação de indicadores locais abordados a partir da definição estipulada pela Organização Mundial do Turismo. Os resultados alcançados demonstraram que os indicadores estudados são instrumentos a serem considerados no processo de avaliação e quantificação do turismo em um destino com semelhantes configurações ambientais, o que viabiliza a compreensão e o fortalecimento da noção de sustentabilidade. Este estudo caracteriza-se pela sua vertente interdisciplinar e teve como norteador o método dedutivo. / Tese (Doutorado em Tecnologia Nuclear) / IPEN/T / Instituto de Pesquisas Energeticas e Nucleares - IPEN-CNEN/SP

nÃo hà / Nas dÃcadas recentes, os transplantes tiveram um profundo impacto no cuidado dos pacientes em estÃgio final de diversos tipos de doenÃas. No Brasil, as polÃticas pÃblicas relacionadas com as pessoas que necessitam de transplante carecem de avaliaÃÃes aprofundadas para desenvolvimento e aplicaÃÃo de polÃticas pÃblicas. A presente pesquisa teve como objetivo avaliar a atuaÃÃo da Central de NotificaÃÃo de Transplantes do Estado do Cearà (CNCDO) e das ComissÃes Intra-Hospitalares de DoaÃÃo de ÃrgÃos e Tecidos para Transplantes (CIHDOTTs) de Fortaleza, instÃncias consideradas decisivas na operacionalizaÃÃo da PolÃtica Nacional de Transplantes no territÃrio do CearÃ. A pesquisa foi realizada utilizando dados secundÃrios e primÃrios, tanto quantitativos quanto qualitativos, sendo desenvolvida no perÃodo de julho de 2010 a fevereiro de 2011. Foi realizada entrevista com a presidente da CNCDO, aplicado um formulÃrio com 12 coordenadoras das CIHDOTTs e realizadas observaÃÃes estruturadas em trÃs CIHDOTTs. Destacam-se entre os resultados: CNCDO sobrecarregada e realizando atividades da alÃada das CIHDOTTs; CIHDOTTs com equipes reduzidas e predomÃnio de enfermeiras, atuando essencialmente na busca ativa de potenciais doadores; a recusa dos familiares sendo a grande responsÃvel pela nÃo confirmaÃÃo de significativo nÃmero de doaÃÃes; identificadas fragilidades nas aÃÃes de campanha, qualificaÃÃo e planejamento conjunto da CNCDO com as CIHDOTTs; ambas ressentem-se de maior apoio dos profissionais de saÃde e dos gestores dos hospitais e tambÃm da falta de equipamentos e espaÃo fÃsico apropriado; o grande dispÃndio de energia da CNCDO e das CIHDOTTs resulta em nÃmeros Ãnfimos de efetivas doaÃÃes; hà dificuldades no processo de identificaÃÃo de provÃvel potencial doador, demora no diagnÃstico de morte encefÃlica e em iniciar a manutenÃÃo hemodinÃmica do possÃvel doador. A indicaÃÃo de que sÃo maiores os resultados obtidos com as campanhas que privilegiam a linguagem regional confirma o pressuposto inicial de que aÃÃes educativas, por impactarem imediatamente na populaÃÃo, tÃm potencial para alavancar o processo de transplante. ConcluÃmos que fatores humanos, estruturais e tecnolÃgicos representam sÃrios entraves à execuÃÃo da PolÃtica Nacional de Transplante no Estado do CearÃ, com impacto pouco significativo na fila de espera, que à Ãnica para o PaÃs. Indicamos aÃÃes em diversas frentes: redirecionar as campanhas de divulgaÃÃo para abordagens mais identificadas com a cultura regional e mais prÃxima Ãs pessoas; cursos mais frequentes para maior sensibilizaÃÃo e qualificaÃÃo dos profissionais de saÃde; desenvolvimento de estratÃgias para maior sensibilizaÃÃo dos profissionais e gestores quanto Ãs nobres tarefas da CNCDO e das CIHDOTTs; maior nÃmero de profissionais e capacitaÃÃo mais frequente deles para que realizem a detecÃÃo e diagnÃstico de morte encefÃlica de forma precoce e mais agilmente e que assegurem a realizaÃÃo da manutenÃÃo hemodinÃmica de quantos potenciais doadores sejam identificados. / In recent decades, the transplants have had a profound impact on the care of end-stage patients with several kinds of diseases. In Brazil, public policies regarding people who need transplants require thorough assessments. This research aimed to evaluate the performance of the Organ Notification, Harvesting and Distribution Center of the State of Cearà (CNCDO) and Intra-hospital Commission on Organ and Tissue Donation for Transplant (CIHDOTTs) from Fortaleza, instances considered decisive in the operationalization of the National Transplant Policy in the State of CearÃ. The research was conducted by using secondary and primary data, both quantitative and qualitative, developed from July 2010 to February 2011. The president of CNCDO was interviewed. It was applied a form to be filled out by 12 coordinators of CIHDOTTs and structured observations were accomplished in three CIHDOTTs. The following results had been highlighted: CIHDOTTs with reduced teams and nurse predominance; CNCDO overloaded and performing activities which belong to the CIHDOTTs; CIHDOTTs working essentially in an active search for potential donors; the family members refusal is largely responsible for the non-confirmation of a significant number of donations; it was identified fragility in campaign, qualification and joint planning actions between CNCDO and CIHDOTTs; CNCDO and CIHDOTTs resent greater support from health professionals and hospital managers and also the lack of equipment and appropriate physical space; the great expenditure of energy of CNCDO and CIHDOTTs result in an insignificant number of effective donations; there are difficulties in the process of identifying likely potential donor, delay in the diagnosis of brain death and in the beginning of the hemodynamic maintenance of the possible donor. The indication that greater results are obtained from the campaigns which favor the regional language confirms the initial assumption that educational initiatives, due to their immediate impact on the population, has the potential to leverage the transplant process. We conclude that human, structural and technological factors pose serious obstacles to the implementation of the National Transplant Policy in the State of CearÃ, with little significant impact on the sole waiting list in the country. We suggest actions on several fronts: to redirect the dissemination campaigns towards approaches which are more culturally related to the region and closer to people; to offer more frequent courses to raise awareness and to improve the skills of health professionals; to develop strategies to raise awareness of professionals and managers regarding the noble task of CNCDO and CIHDOTTs; to employ more professionals and train them to perform the detection and diagnosis of brain death faster and to ensure the accomplishment of the hemodynamic maintenance efficiently.

The contracting company is in the desire of an autonomous system that can do tedious administrative work that is today done manually. They would like to autonomically notify customers about incoming alarms from the customers’ real estates’ Data Under Centrals and to notify about bookings, in which a complete booking system has to be created, together with a file system analyzer that notifies about new files in the customers’ project folders. A notification system was made that was easily deployable and ready to use. The system had to be completely configurable for the contracting company to use it to its full potential. The notification system was to send notifications when a new alarm had entered the database, a booking had to be reminded of, a rebooking was made or a file had been added to the file system in a designated project folder. The contracting company had a web portal that was further developed in ASP.net in which a booking calendar and booking viewer page was added together with a form creation and management system. A demo buttons page was also added for generating demo notifications for the company to show it’s customers how the system responds to certain events. The employees at GATE IBS feel confident that this system will help them in their working environment to further strengthen their position as an industry leading business in control- and monitoring technology. / Det uppdragsgivande företaget önskar ett autonomt system som kan utföra tidskrävande administrativt arbete som idag utförs manuellt. De vill autonomt informera kunderna om inkommande larm från kundens fastigheters "Data Under Centrals" samt meddela om bokningar där ett komplett bokningssystem måste skapas tillsammans med en filsystemanalysator som meddelar om nya filer i kundens projektmapp. Ett notifikationssystem gjordes som var enkelt att distribuera och redo att använda. Systemet måste vara helt konfigurerbart för att det uppdragsgivande bolaget ska kunna använda programmet till sin fulla potential. Anmälningssystemet skulle skicka meddelanden när ett nytt larm hade kommit in i databasen, en bokning måste påminnas om, ombokning gjordes eller en fil hade lagts till filsystemet i en utsedd projektmapp. Kontraktsföretaget hade en webbportal som vidareutvecklades i ASP.net där en bokningskalender och bokningsvisningssida lagts till tillsammans med ett formulärgenererings- och formulärhanteringssystem och en demoknappssida för att generera demonotifikationer för att företaget ska kunna visa kunderna hur systemet svarar på vissa händelser. De anställda på GATE IBS är övertygade om att detta system kommer att hjälpa dem i sin arbetsmiljö för att ytterligare stärka sin ställning som branschledande företag inom kontroll- och övervakningsteknik.

Essay I: Employment Security Agreements, which are elements of Swedish collective agreements, offer a unique opportunity to study very early job search counselling of displaced workers. These agreements provide individual job search assistance to workers who are dismissed due to redundancy, often as early as during the period of notice. Compared to traditional labor market policies, the assistance provided is earlier and more responsive to the needs of the individual worker. In this study, I investigate the effects of the individual counseling and job search assistance provided through the Employment Security Agreement for Swedish blue-collar workers on job finding and subsequent job quality. The empirical strategy is based on the rules of eligibility in a regression discontinuity framework. I estimate the effect for workers with short tenure, who are dismissed through mass-layoffs. My results do not suggest that the program has an effect on the probability of becoming unemployed, the duration of unemployment, or income. However, the results indicate that the program has a positive effect on the duration of the next job. Essay II: The well-known positive relationship between the unemployment benefit level and unemployment duration can be separated into two potential sources; a moral hazard effect, and a liquidity effect pertaining to the increased ability to smooth consumption. The latter is a socially optimal response due to credit and insurance market failures. These two effects are difficult to separate empirically, but the social optimality of an unemployment insurance policy can be evaluated by studying the effect of a non-distortionary lump-sum severance grant on unemployment durations. In this study, I evaluate the effects on unemployment duration and subsequent job quality of a lump-sum severance grant provided to displaced workers, by means of a Swedish collective agreement. I use a regression discontinuity design, based on the strict age requirement to be eligible for the grant. I find that the lump-sum grant has a positive effect on the probability of becoming unemployed and the length of the completed unemployment duration, but no effect on subsequent job quality. My analysis also indicates that spousal income is important for the consumption smoothing abilities of displaced workers, and that the grant may have a greater effect in times of more favorable labor market conditions. Essay III: Evidence from around the world suggest that individuals who are awarded disability benefits in some cases still have residual working capacity, while disability insurance systems typically involve strong disincentives for benefit recipients to work. Some countries have introduced policies to incentivize disability insurance recipients to use their residual working capacities on the labor market. One such policy is the continuous deduction program in Sweden, introduced in 2009. In this study, I investigate whether the financial incentives provided by this program induce disability insurance recipients to increase their labor supply or education level. Retroactively determined eligibility to the program with respect to time of benefit award provides a setting resembling a natural experiment, which could be used to estimate the effects of the program using a regression discontinuity design. However, a simultaneous regime change of disability insurance eligibility causes covariate differences between treated and controls, which I adjust for using a matching strategy. My results suggest that the financial incentives provided by the program have not had any effect on labor supply or educational attainment.

En procédure civile, la connaissance des actes du procès par les parties est essentielle ; des garanties importantes y sont attachées, à commencer par le respect du principe du contradictoire. Une difficulté se pose, toutefois : il est malaisé de déterminer si une partie a eu connaissance de l’acte qui lui a été communiqué. Toute la question est alors de savoir comment le droit s’accommode de cette difficulté. À cette fin, deux modèles contraires peuvent être dégagés. Dans le premier, formaliste, il est fait le choix de favoriser la connaissance des actes du procès par les parties en amont, pour pouvoir se désintéresser de leur connaissance effective en aval, tous les moyens ayant été mis en oeuvre pour y parvenir. Dans le second, réaliste, on se désintéresse de la façon dont les actes du procès sont portés à la connaissance des parties, mais, par la suite, on prête beaucoup d’intérêt à la connaissance que les parties en ont réellement eue. L’étude révèle que le droit du procès civil reposait initialement sur un modèle à dominante formaliste, mais que ce modèle a évolué, particulièrement au cours des dix dernières années. Sous l’influence des soucis contemporains de rationalisation des coûts de la justice et de protection accrue des droits fondamentaux des parties, le formalisme du droit du procès civil s’est tempéré. Faudrait-il qu’il le soit davantage ? Ce travail ne plaide ni pour la subversion du modèle classique, ni pour son rétablissement. Plutôt, c’est une évolution nuancée du droit qui est suggérée, proposant d’exalter le formalisme lorsque la sécurité juridique l’exige, sans renoncer à tirer profit de règles l’atténuant quand cela s’impose. / In civil law procedures, the parties’ knowledge of the acts of the trial is essential; it guarantees that certain principles, such as the adversarial principle, will be respected. However, a difficulty arises: it is hard to determine whether a party has in fact become aware of the act which was communicated to him. The question is to determine whether the law can accept such a difficulty. To this end, two divergent models can be provided. In the formalistic one, the choice is made to favor the knowledge of the acts of the trial beforehand, in order to be able to become disinterested in their actual knowledge afterwards, all the means having been implemented to carry this out. In the realistic one, the way in which the acts of the trial are brought to the parties' attention is neglected, but thereafter, there is a resurgent focus on the knowledge the parties have genuinely had. The study reveals that the law of civil trial was initially based on a predominantly formalistic model, but this model has evolved, especially during the last decade. Under the influence of contemporary concerns in order to rationalize justice costs and increase the protection of the parties' fundamental rights, the formalism of civil lawsuit has been tempered. Should it be even more moderate? This work neither pleads for the subversion of the classical model nor for its reinstatement. Instead, it is a nuanced evolution of the law which is suggested. It suggests to promote formalism when legal certainty requires it, without sacrificing the benefit of lightening the rules when it is necessary.

Difference between technical standards, legislation and certification and testing procedures in specific EU countries complicates unification of international markets. Therefore international standards and procedures for conformity assessment of products that are connected to Agreement on Technical Barriers to Trade have been created. Completion of all requirements, standards, procedures and marking, including proposals regarding resolving problematic areas, is the main content of this diploma thesis.
