The project has shown that it is possible to create applications for different mobile operating systems and linking the devices to the signal handler Data Engine . Using Qt as a framework and development environment allows doing this with only one code base, which can be made to work on different platforms. This creates great opportunity to save time and to reach a wider audience. The creation of a demonstrator application, a tutorial and a template for new projects has been the main goals for this project. These will serve as examples and guides for applications to come on how to deploy to mobile devices and connect to Data Engine using Wi-Fi. Though support for Windows Phone was not achieved, due to both development-wise difficulties and choices made during the project's course, the project was considered a success.

Abstract Short QT syndrome is an inherited arrhythmia disorder characterized by a short QT interval, typical T-wave and ST-segment morphology and an increased risk of sudden cardiac death. The purpose of this thesis was to study the epidemiology and prognosis of the subjects with short QT intervals. Special attention was paid to the ECG changes that could illustrate the prognosis of subjects with short QT interval. The first study comprised a group of patients with short QT syndrome. We report clinical presentation, ECG morphology, the prevalence of genetic mutations and the results of therapies in this group of patients. The second study population consisted of 10 822 randomly selected middle-aged subjects followed up for 29 ± 10 years. QT intervals were measured using three correction methods for the heart rate in order to assess the prevalence and prognosis of those subjects with short QT intervals. The third population consisted of three patients with short QT syndrome and nine controls. Holter recordings were analyzed to compare transmural dispersion of repolarization between patients and controls and also to study their capability to change repolarization indexes from baseline to maximal values. In the fourth study ECGs from 10 patients with short QT syndrome were compared with ECGs of 12 asymptomatic subjects with short QT intervals. The aim was to find ECG abnormalities that would predict the outcome of the patients. We found 62% of patients to be symptomatic, 34% had cardiac arrest. Atrial fibrillation was common. Most of the patients received an ICD or were placed on hydroquinidine. The prevalence of QTc < 320ms was 0.10% and QTc < 340ms was 0.4%, respectively. Mortality or other serious symptoms did not differ between subjects and controls. We also found that the TPE/QT ratio as an index for abnormal transmural dispersion of repolarization was high compared to controls. Short QT syndrome patients had also lesser capacity to change the QT interval, indicating blunted autonomic response in SQTS. Ten SQTS patients had significantly shorter Jpoint–Tpeak interval and higher TPE/QT ratio compared to controls. In conclusion, shorter than normal QT interval might represent a novel short QT syndrome. However, in the general community short QT interval can reflect only the extreme end of the normal Gaussian distribution of QT intervals and these subjects carry a good prognosis. TPE/QT ratio and Jpoint–Tend intervals can be used as risk stratifiers in subjects with short QT intervals.

The aim of the article is to discuss the main problems in land-development activity. The study focuses on land acquisition problem. In the article we describe possible implications of difference between real estate market and investment value, and enumerate major sources of investment risk.

The diploma thesis includes the ZigBee networks and compares them with other PAN IEEE 802.15.4 networks. It describes the formation of ZigBee networks. It describes physical, MAC, network and application layer in the form of Bitcloud. Thesis includes practical implementation in the form of ZigBee application BeeCon which allows set network parameters on Iris modules.

The goal of this master's thesis is to provide an introduction to MSP430 microcontrollers and to design a simulator of these microcontrollers, focusing on easy implementation of extensions using peripherals. After a short introduction, the MSP430 microcontrollers are briefly described, including their internal peripherals and the formats used to store the binary executable code. The thesis continues with a  description of discrete event simulation using the DEVS formalism. Based on previous chapters, the new simulator (consisting of a simulation core, graphical user interface and library for MSP430 microcontroller simulation)  is designed and implemented. The implementation is tested by comparison with real microcontroller and in the end of the thesis, there is a summary and evaluation of the implemented simulator.

This master thesis deals with interactive cloth simulation accelerated by GPU. In the first part there is a description of all technologies used during implementation of a program. The second part discusses various simulation methods. It is mainly focused on particle systems as a most used method. These parts are followed by a design of the program, which is implemented as a part of this thesis. The program was implemented in four variants. The first variant is CPU implementation, which was then optimalized with OpenMP. CUDA implementation is based on these implementations. Last variant implemented in this thesis is optimized CUDA implementation. All these implementations are evaluated from compute complexity point of view and suitability for real time graphics.
