Simulation is an advanced tool to capture and simplify a complex system and it allows to track the effects of changes in it to function of the entire system. The aim of the thesis was to model the current function of the system and monitor the effects of changes by experiments with the model in order to find a new and better solution. In this thesis, the running of the client workplace of Všeobecná zdravotní pojišťovna ČR was monitored and the simulation was based on real data from May 2012. The simulation was performed using the software Simul8. The results of the base case show that the system leads to accumulation of entities and long time spent in the queue. Within experimenting with the model there were created 8 scenarios that modify some parts of the system. Firstly the results of the scenarios were compared to the base case and then they were compared with each other. The scenario that was chosen as the best, was better in most of parameters compared to the base case. The parameter with the worst value in the base case - time spent queuing for a normal counter - has improved by 62 % in the new scenario. This scenario was chosen as a new and better solution for the current system.

This thesis researches dynamics in projects managed by Scrumban. It describes the creation of system dynamics simulation model, which provides insight into the relationships between system components. It also presents data, that are further analysed with the purpose of discovering patterns in behaviour of project attributes in time, such as size of the product backlog, work in progress etc. The patterns are discovered and recommended parameter settings are provided so that there is no idle time or higher defect rate than necessary. Soft factors are also included in the model, namely the development team and the customer, which have a grand effect to the model behaviour. Managment flight simulator is developed, which provides the option to experiment even to users, who are not familiar with system dynamics modelling. The thesis consists of two parts. In the first part, necessary theory of project management, system dynamics and their fusion is provided. The second part is dedicated to the process of creating the simulation model, dynamic hypothesis formulation, mathematical modelling, testing and data analysis. In consideration of the analysis results, recommended policies are provided. Last pages of the thesis describe the user interface of management flight simulator and it's controls.

To determine the predicted inflows into the reservoir system is applied zonal prediction model. When the solution is used a simulation model that is hand-built in Microsoft Excel and optimization model, which is automatically built into the program SOMVS and is applying the principles of adaptive control.

The thesis focuses on a process of water management analysis of storage and protective function of the Vlachovice reservoir on the Vlára watercourse. The work contains an alternative proposal of the reservoir storage volume in Microsoft Excel, spreadsheet program with accessible functions whereby progression of arithmetic and logical algorithm simulating operation of reservoir storage function is created. An alternative proposal of protective volume of the reservoir is created in HYDROG program, where calculations of transformation of flood waves for PV 100, PV 1 000, and PV 10 000 are performed. Moreover, the work includes simplified analysis of the hydropower potential of the proposed reservoir.

<div>Wildlife diseases are an increasingly growing concern for public health managers, conservation biologists, and society at large. These diseases may be zoonotic -- infective wildlife are able to spread pathogens to human populations. Animal or plant species of conservation concern may also be threatened with extinction or extirpation due to the spread of novel pathogens into their native ranges. In this thesis, I develop some mathematical methods for understanding the dynamics of vector-borne diseases in wildlife populations which include several elements of host and vector biology. </div><div><br></div><div>We consider systems where a vector-borne pathogen is transmitted to a host population wherein individuals either die to disease or recover, remaining chronically infective. Both ordinary differential equations (ODE) and individual based (IBM) models of such systems are formulated then applied to a specific system of wildlife disease: avian malaria in Hawaiian honeycreeper populations -- where some species endure disease-induced mortality rates exceeding 90\%. The ODE model predicts that conventional management methods cannot fully stop pathogen transmission.</div><div><br></div><div>Vector dispersal and reproductive biology may also play a large role in the transmission of vector-borne diseases in forested environments. Using an IBM which models dispersal and mosquito reproductive biology, we predict that reducing larval habitat at low elevations is much more effective than at higher elevations. The ODE model is extended to include distinct populations of sensitive and tolerant hosts. We find that the form which interaction between the hosts takes has a significant impact on model predictions.</div>

Parallelization of logic simulation on register-transfer and gate level is a promising way to accelerate extremely time-extensive system simulation processes during the design of whole processor structures. The background of this paper is given by the functional simulator parallelTEXSIM realizing simulation based on the clock-cycle algorithm over loosely-coupled parallel processor systems. In preparation for parallel cycle simulation, partitioning of hardware models is necessary, which essentially determines the efficiency of the following simulation. We introduce a new method of parameterized partition valuation for use within model partitioning algorithms. It is based on a formal definition of parallel cycle simulation involving a model of parallel computation called Communicating Processors. Parameters within the valuation function permit consideration of specific properties related to both the simulation target architecture and the hardware design to be simulated. Our partition valuation method allows performance estimation with respect to corresponding parallel simulation. This has been confirmed by tests concerning several models of real processors as, for instance, the PowerPC 604 with parallel simulation running on an IBM SP2.

A large number of customers do not make the purchase owing to a series of unmet trends that face the consumer behaviour which leads to significant economic losses and inefficient service. They have therefore focused their efforts on finding impulse mechanisms through allowing them to migrate to less costly processes and/or to achieve better utilisation of available resources without success. This research inquires into the effectiveness of the Lean Thinking Simulation (LTS) model, which consists in the development of a set of methodological phases and the adaptation of the technological support termed as Digital Change to improve the performance of customer service in Peruvian fast food. The main result of this practical study was defined by a Dashboard in real-time, and as a first approximation of the model, a 17.03% improvement can be shown in the performance of customer service on the fast food selected. / Revisión por pares

This dissertation thesis is focused on the problem of the Automatic Tool Change for milling centers, which is recently shown as a very current topic. The content of this work is to conduct a comprehensive research of various types of ATC depending on the type of machine, as well as research of the current tool interface relating closely with these problems. There was made a comprehensive analysis on the basis of data obtained by comprehensive research, from which both the main factors affecting this topic and the area dealed and developed by this work resulted. The most problematic area of machinery used nowdays for the Atomatic Tool Change was detected as manipulator provided the exchange between spindle and tool storage. Kinematic structure and design of individual elements affects very significantly the dynamics of the whole process of exchange of tools. Therefore, the work is focused on problematic of the manipulator. The main results of this thesis are constructional design of several types of manipulators, which were partly realized within the project 1.2.4 of Brno department of RCMT in the form of the testing stands. There was developed simulation models for selected types of manipulators which were verificated by measuring on the real stand. On the basis of abovementioned problem there was identified another key issue related not only to the exchange process but also with complex problem of service life of spindle. It is a grab force in the process of picking tools. The work outlines the possibilities for further research of these forces on the service file of spindle (especially on service life of bering groups of spindle).
